Fake In China: China Copies Bikini Car Wash, Needs More Displacement
Forget Mao suits: “Chinese youngsters know Justin Bieber, hamburgers and Middle East warfare,” reports the culturally clued-in Carnewschina. “They also know this thing called ‘Bikini Car Wash’, many Chinese websites are full with big-breasted American babes bikini washing big engined American cars.”
A car wash in Shanghai made it reality. Except, well, the babes are Chinese.
Someone give the lady a wand, and a pressure washer.
This looks more like the staff of one of those Chinese hair salons where there is no cutting of hair.
Apart from the lack of displacement on the part of the ladies, the car is no big-engined American metal either, but one of those Teutonic-Italian Lamborghinis. Half-baked American cultural revolution, I’d say.

Now, if they'd start doing dude car washes over there, like they do on Church St here, then maybe more Chinese boys would come out to their parents, stay home and not come to Canada for pretend educations so they can drink, snort coke and party all night, while mom & dad think they are studying.....
I don't know what the Mandarin for this is, so I'll say the only ~close way I know: BON-KYU-BON! BON-KYU-BON! BON-KYU-BON! BON-KYU-BON! There is No Replacement for Displacement!
