It would be funnier if it was 666. What the hell is 555 supposed to mean anyway?

They do not sell Lucky Strike in China. They do sell 555 cigarettes.
555 is just a different cigarette that is under the BAT label.

I suspected it was smokes, thanks for confirming...

I agree about the look, HONDA needs to do something different than the BAR look.

SO ?:
Will/would you want bothe HONDA teams to look the same in '06 or should the 2 teams have a different look?

Absoultely NOT!!!
I would love to have 2 different Liveries
that way I can add on to my 4000 dollars(SERIOUSLY, since 2000) worth of Honda F1, BAR(branded and NON), Jordan, Mugen, clothing!

As far as 06 goes, Since BAR is in last year of Sponsership, I doubt they will change colors for 06

i'd have to disagree on this one..BAT/BARis in ownership and has had the same scheme of paint since before honda took 45% ownership. so with honda as 100% owners and no BAT influence i'm sure they will change it...my 2 cents

Okay, I could live with that, but how exactly would they tie together as both obviously being HONDA?

And in fact this interesting riddle is also going to have to be asked by the Red Bull team, as they too are going to be running 2 teams/4 cars.

BAR Honda.. white/red/black/green
and
Jordan Honda Yellow

all it is, is a paint job.
