Brilliance BS6..hope we will never have this running around..

this italian article talks about the incoming debut in europe of the new chinese luxury sedan Brilliance BS6.
Chinese had great expectation about this vehicle (low cost).
The German ADAC made safety test (EuroNcap,even far away from american safety standars..)..and this coffin won as the WORST car they've ever seen in crash test.

It looks like the steel beam in the door did its job, it just that everything else around it was made from tin foil.

Nice looking car to begin with but I don't think that damage will buff out...
