an observation about european cars vs the rest of the world....

[Michael Gough]

HAHA what about "All-Road" thats the same as "Wide Track" your observation
only proves Germans have no creativity in naming their cars. They simply use
the numbers that correspond to an engine and body-740 7 series 4l v8, though
its bigger now I think. The other car companies actually put some creativity
into their names. The viper is a bad ass snake, the Dodge Viper is one of
the most bad ass cars on the road see....
