Default Chinese Companies Build Knockoffs of Popular Cars

Auto Loan Daily - Chinese Companies Build Knockoffs of Popular Cars

Quote:
Everyone knows that when you want imitations of designer purses or sunglasses, you head to China Town. Now you can turn to the Chinese for knockoff products that won’t fit in the trunk of a car.

Chinese motor companies have been selling clones of Japanese motorcycles for some time. Often times the two models will have interchangeable parts. The newest trend is to copy the styling of popular cars and SUVs and sell them for much less than the original.

Yeah you can buy chinese cloned auto parts.. But you end up either: 1.) exchanging them because they don't fit or 2.) Or dump them in the trash because it won't work at all..
