A Genesis Coupe, a Yaris, and a Dacia walk into a bar…


    The Baojun 630 is GM’s attempt at a low priced car for the Chinese (around $7000 in fact). The result is a strange “second world everycar” – somehow, just by looking at it, you can tell it’s a cheap car whose build quality is suspect. It’s awkward proportions suggest that it’s an older platform with fancy modern duds that recall several other current cars (not unlike the redressed Fiat platforms used well beyond their best before dates by manufacturers in several Eastern European countries). To be specific, it looks like a Toyota Yaris with the face of a Dacia Sandero grafted on. It even borrows the Hyundai Genesis Coupe's aggresive "Z" body detailing.

Got Wood?

    For some reason, this car's owner has decided to apply a burled walnut look to the car's fenders and hood. Yet the other panels remain untouched (well, except for the black front bumper). Is this a fug in progress?
