North American advertising in general used to lead the world in creativity and excitement...things are changing but GM will sell a lot of LSX powered cars in China!

RellORelll.... As someone so frequently challenged to drive in Markham/Agincourt I can say it's nice to see the Chinese so motivated by such a fine display of precision driving. Did you ever hear the joke of the Chinese F1 driver? Me neither! (*) But hey, its a big market so sell, sell sell, and those V's have a big, broad dashboard to stick on whole rows of those little bobbleheads.

Given the size of their population I'm sure it won't be too much longer before there actually is a punchline to that joke!

In all seriousness, I wonder if there are some amazing fresh and open roads in China to run a Corvette through, and if so what their enforcement is like. If you can survive getting out of the congested cities, there could be quite an adventure awaiting! This might be the last place on the planet left for an all-out cannonball run... how do you pronounce "leciplocity?"

(*)PS.. in case anyone's got their pc banner ready to unfurl my Chinese friends think that joke's hilarious.
