Wolf Blitzer remarked on TV about Lebanese business acumen; it was because of some story about Lebanese businessmen in Africa or South America or maybee Carlos Sim.

At below popular Lebanese forum, a Lebanese expat remarked on how Lebanese are a nation of merchants but can't do anything else, the tone and intention was critical of Lebanese society.

In this particular case, it isn't just about business, it is engineering that makes or breaks the product, especially since the price is $3.4 million. Even with the Austrians, Germans and Italians helping out, the specs on the car are ho-hum, and goes into absurd crack pipe territory with what they are asking.

Bahtahtboy !

The labels "Syrian" and "Lebanese" are actually quite modern I think. In Ottoman times. before the French got the Mandate in 1918, I think the two were part of a single province.

Point taken. Thank you Major Scobie. I thought you had committed suicide !

Owing to the blacked windows I assume it has no interior yet and at a guess the engine is also not in as it was locked down. Waste of money
