@LobselVith:Chung is not just a Chinese name. It is also a common Korean name. About 5% of the population share the family name Chung (alternate spelling of Jeong).

That said, I'm well aware a Japanese Import vehicle is not a Kia or a Chery Automobile. I was merely going for the fact that it is an Asian name. And no, that's not racist or stereotyping or a hasty generalization.

@wasasaw1113: actually the Mustang is not a muscle car ... it is a pony car. and yes ... there is a pretty big difference.

Yeah, what's up Kotaku? Don't you have the pass for the Playstation presscenter? Hell, even I have it. There are two HQ pics of the Audi there...it's bright orange, swivel doors, 5 spoke rims, other tuner stuff. It's more technical than flashy, as Marcel is the go-to guy for HPA tuning, apparently.

I'm more impressed by the Factory Five, mostly because I'd rather have that in GT5 than the tuned Audi.

@skrame:

I don't get the connection with "Japanese Import"... Chung is a Chinese name.

A sweet custom-lasered PS3, eternal pride and some wicked-ass pit stains.

The winner's names seem to connect to their respective categories.

European - Marcel
Domestic - Cheney
Japanese Import - Chung
Truck - DeFord
Hot Rod - A couple of dudes.

It just struck me as weird or coincidental or something. I don't know.
