Hey Wilee, are you a Stook owner? Do you live in Hong Kong? So many question, sorry, I was in China last summer. Man I would think it would be tuff to drive this car over there, I've never seen traffic until I went there. Three things that everyone has to experience in this life, 1. A loving wife 2.Own an s2000 and 3.Take a Chinese taxicab ride...D)

Yes I got a blue stook,
I live in HK.
Which part of China did you go to?
Hong Kong is a pretty advanced place with no bicycles running around like inland China.
Yeah! Traffic here is like driving at 5PM at L.A. 405freeway. But I got lots of mountain twisty road for fun here.
It's a pity that I still looking for the first experience.

Wilee, we were in Beijing and then flew down to Fuzou. The amazing thing that I noticed about the traffic was that road signs and lines on the road didn't seem to matter. But the even more amazing thing was that it worked, we only saw one small fender bender the whole time we were there. It seems that there is an order of priority among the drivers. The larger you are the more priority you had, except for the taxi drivers they seemed to do what they wanted when they wanted. I couldn't imagine the looks this car would have gotten in Fuzou, being a westerner I felt like I was from Mars anyway but with the head turning power of a Stook it would be unbelievable.

it would probably attract unwanted attention from the communist comrades running the show. remember, even the communist leaders want to be rich and have nice things.
