In other countries, Leather is a common option on smaller cars.


The Peugeot 207 has it.

I don't see any threads by you about new French, British, Japanese, or "Spanish" cars.

Rags, I was attempting to analyze if there was a racial bias behind the fact that he has a thing for Chinese cars. I assumed he was Asian and was proud of his country or something. :huh:

I once had a wrestling match, well, more like a humorous battle, while at wrestling camp in my dormroom with a kid on the team who happened to be black.  As he was choking me out, other people on the team ran in to see what was happening.  Short of breath and being choked out, I laughed as much as my breath would allow and exclaimed, "Look, it's the battle of the minorities!"

I just thought that might make your night.

It smells good. Rose and Sandelwood are a bit too feminine, so I use Ginsing. (Jasmine is ok....)

http://www.mothernature.com/Shop/Brands/index.cfm/b/11586


I also use Clearly Natural Soaps, usually cucumber.
http://www.clearlynaturalsoaps.com/

Only 0.50 to 1.00 per bar for the chinese ones, and 1.50 for the Clearly Naturals.

Axe is supposed to be for those times when you don't have time to shower and smell like shit and you need some kind of last-ditch effort to get presentable.  It's not meant to be a real cologne.

The Peugeot 207 has it.

It's not the leather, it's the proportions of the seatback to the cushion.

The rear-end is a little gumby-looking, which is a shame, because I always enjoyed the real Gumby.

Back on topic...

Looks great for a small sedan, it's hard to make anything small look close to good.

Beats the hell out of the Yaris.
