English and Chinese (Cantonese) are the two official languages of HK.

Mainland China has Cantonese and Mandarin.

[tlai909@visto.com]

Why does it weigh 1,810kg?

China is officially Mandarin and English.

Hong Kong is Cantonese and English.

One country, two systems.

You've gotta admire the cheek of the people selling it.

Costs more than a Statesman, is less powerful, looks crook, and from a brand
few have heard of. I mean, that takes some guts.

He's right. Some of them are good cars. So are some Hondas, for that
matter.

Geez, don't you think Honda is a little more broad? They make a range of
cars, I was only referring to two specific models. Also, Honda have never
produced a lemon

If they devalue like the Musso they'll be good buying in about 3 years.

Oh, really? :)

You're not old enough to remember things like the "Life", "360Z" or the
"Scurry?" (or whatever the fuck it was called)....

In fact, everything Honda made before the first Civic in 1975 was a heap of
shit.

No fucking wonder I don't want anything to do with Honda or Mitsubishi
Christ you must worship superintendent chalmers in the Simpsons when he
bragged on about buying an old brown Honda Accord hatch.

"Holy jumping Caesar's catfish! My H has been stolen! Awww, thats how people
know its a Honda. Why would you drive a Honda if you cant show it off?"

But then again you never bought a car with your own money in your life so
you wouldn't know any better.

Probably because they don't need to dig in daddy dearest pocket to buy a
car.

Heh, in the last episode I saw, we see the superintendent pull up to the
school in a late model Camry, which Otto then completely flattens with the
bus!
"Skinner, your bus driver has just rammed into my Camry!"
"Well, if you want you can borrow my Merkur in the mean time."
