I understand we need to wait and see about pricing and warranties and the availability of service centres here in Canada, not to mention better understanding of quality issues and of course environmental and human rights issues, but...

Which potential Chinese cars interest you the most to drive here in Canada? Personally I'm tired of soulless cookie-cutter SUV/CUVs and am far more interested in the 4 door coupes and smaller city-cars. Think downtown Montreal cars with personality rather than suburban Alberta parking lots in places like Sherwood Park outside big-box stores.

You're taking a risk that the US forces us to ban them. Last I heard we did sign onto a missile defense system with the US so clearly our fates are intertwined, and I see this becoming a hotter issue, including China banning foreign cars from mapping its own streets.

They could push a firmware update that forces cars to drive across the border and run over civilians with a single dictators decree.

Well, I've got bad news then, as Chinese-made vehicles now make up nearly 1 in 5 cars sold in Mexico and includes brands like BYD, Changan and MG as well as cars manufactured in China by Ford and General Motors.
