    Gtting back to memory when personnally seing the first
    - Japanese car sold in Cameroon in 1963 (a Isuzu 4 door compact sedan)
    - South-Korean (Hyundai Pony)
    - Spanish (Seat Ibiza)
    - Soviet (Moskovitch 412)
    - widespread Brazilian (Volkswagen Gol & Amazon family of sub-compacts)
    - Malaysian (Proton ...)
    - real modern PRC (the Brilliance mid-size sedan, back in 2003)
    list goes on

          Not bad. Indonesia has a few of its own cars, they're powered by Japanese engines and are under a Japanese brand (eg Toyota, Suzuki, Isuzu, Daihatsu etc) but are designed and manufactured in Indonesia for the domestic market. This makes cars a bit more affordable to the general public while providing a little extra revenue from the engine suppliers. Like this new 'Revo' they're pretty basic but are still adequate for local roads.

              you might reconsider your words before saying it ,, i bet you couldnt even draw a car ..
              The hell with about how it looks... i bet none of the major car companys doesnt even make a beautiful car at all when it come to designing a new car...


              by the way, that looks nice ... I speak for the Philippine nation, at least Pakistan is not a second hand country .. That's a great start Pakistan !

                after looking at our avatar, and signature i see you think the 747 looks good... you woudn't post 2 pictures of 747's just because its great performance, otherwise you would have posted a concord , A340-500, A380, 777-200LR etc....

                    True, that's a GOOD car. A GREAT car is one that does what you mentioned but has the appearance to go along with it.

                    No need to get offended if someone says it's ugly. The fact is, it is ugly. But hey, Kudos to them for building their first ... I bet eventually they'll make something that looks decent. They shouldn't feel bad though, because even the major automakers are still creating hideous vehicles. The Pontiac Aztek and Honda Element come to mind ...

                        Actually first Pakistani car was launched in 1997 called 'proficient'. But Suzuki Pakistan has a very influential hold in Pakistan and thus was successful in getting government to stop the production of the car.

                        But now, Pakistani government does not seem to be so negative towards Pakistani science community.

                        Plus, like Indonesia, Pakistan designs and assembles Suzuki cars, KIA cars, and very soon will be assemblin Renault, Mercedes Benz and possibly BMW.

                        BTW, Pakistan built its first airplane in 70s but it suffered the same fate as the car Pakistan built but lately they launched couple of locally built aircrafts as well.

                        Make wise decisions and live freely.

                          That doesn't look too safe though.
