Who cares if I got H2 on the road! Lalagyan ko ng barricade sa harapan tapos banggaan tayo. Palag palag! Hahaha

masyadong one-sided naman ang gumawa nito. syempre kung babae ka, bibili ka ng "too girly" na design. and of course old folks have old taste kaya may mga bibili rin ng old look style. but it doesn't mean that the opposite design is what sets the standard. kanya kanyang taste lang yan. my mom owns a chevrolet hhr and it suits her well, both in style and in usage.

yung number 4 ang masasabi ko lang looks didn't matter as long as you have a bad as* motor

SSR uses a V8 LS2 motor which can be found in a C6 Corvette  smoking:: so many old guys who can't afford to buy a Vette buys a SSR

yung Nissan Cube, kamukhang-kamukha nung locally released na HAMA something.  dun kaya kinuha yung design nun?  ang nakakatawa dun sa sasakyan na yun ay wala pa three months, naglalaglagan na mga ilaw niya, ha ha ha

HAMA ba o HAIMA? sa pinas ba yung tinutukoy mong nalalaglag yung ilaw?

HAMA or HAIMA, can't be sure po.  yes, sa PINAS po.  same design as what i mentioned earlier po.  what i just can remember is that in just 3 months an acquiantance's newly acquired vehicle's lights started to just drop like flies!  ha ha ha.  if the Kia CD-5 is said to be car disposable in 5 years, then this 5 months?  just some funny thoughts po.
