Those guys riding on the outside of the vehicles when they were up on two wheels were pretty bold. I bet that took a long time to practice. Did I really see someone wearing a spiderman costume?

Believe it or not, Buicks have a lot of cache in China right now. I've seen a lot of people using them in Beijing, complete with driver.

Not only that, Buick opened a design studio in China a few years back which was responsible for the design of the new LaCrosse, which is the only Buick built in my lifetime that I would consider owning.
