of the car has extras, namely a tissue box holder on the dashboard and shiny cd hanging from the rear view mirror fitted as standard - indicators optional. :D

i bet on Muslim hand bags fully equipped with a place for your prayer mat and prayer beads...on second thought i actually would be interested in something like that :P...the upgraded version of that car would probably have a special place for abayas and thobes :P to add some culture to it.

but could be funny to see what they come up with, wouldn't it?

By Booo• 17 Nov 2007 19:58

Its just that the market is flooded and they wanna specialize, in Muslim car making :S, what's next?

I am very reasonable especially when faced with reasonable arguements...

I am sorry if you end up on the receiving end for talking pleasantly with me...;) But I do enjoy the company!!!

Correct! you get pulled sometimes, at least for clarification or to voice your opinion.

That's very healthy too. I trust you're a very reasonable person. And usually, when I can, I read your posts...:))

Next I know!! Happy Happy will be branded as stalking Scarlett, and this post will be copied all over the place and in bold fonts too..lolllllllll

Have fun

actually for several months...to tell you the truth...rather sad...and i have to admit to getting pulled into some of the frays...but I'm trying to learn to remain quiet...as if you can't say something nice, say nothing at all about people...sigh...but its so difficult sometimes when they lash out at your family...

By Scarlett• 17 Nov 2007 15:24
Scarlett

and i realized what you said after i hit send..so toolate!! lol

and there has to be SOME way to get brains in there...

I'm here, but QL has had one of those hiccups for quite sometime. I prefer to keep away, unless I’m very intrigued.

And by hiccup I mean all the contagious bashing, insult, name and shame....etc.

I always wait until QL gets back to its sensible senses..:) I still love this place and cherish some friends here too.

I said EXCEPT humans... but there are exceptions there too. Like Mrs. she tries to eat humans (particularly human brain).

following your car around...ohh wait..I think i just came up with a solution for Happy Happy and the meat issue...

By Scarlett• 17 Nov 2007 15:19

but if it was Rudolph...the car would fly...which in a way wouldn't be a bad idea in the traffic around here. i think you are onto something!!!

I might want to avoid you if you eat humans...and never mind about the offer to sharpen that knife...;)

Skdkak....how about you graciously launch it for us as Christmas gift!

But I'm a meat eater! How’re you going to bridge this "market gap".

I didn't know women could take their head cover off because car manufacturers decided to throw this luxury in the car.

How about an atheist with a fashionable scarf and magazine, are they allowed to buy it to use the two miraculous spaces?......guess they have to convert first!

I wish they said purchase profits will be allocated to build universities for women or cover food needs of the hungry in countries below the poverty line or shelter the homeless or scientific research…..etc.

Sorry for my sarcastic tone, cannot help it this time! But the article as is, is mere brainless shame.

Its all marketing gimmicks

Looks like the car is a flop and they need to quickly unload it to some unsuspecting people in the name of religion

I would rather have one rose and a kind word from a friend while I'm here

Than a whole truck load when I'm gone

Talk about quircky marketing! Makes me chuckle.

Stay safe all.

Perfection does not exist. The question therefore, is: what level of imperfection are we willing to settle for?

I like how they say "a muslim car represents a huge gap in the market," like there's not a gap in every single "religious" car market? Well, there is the Pope mobile. So check that one off their list...

By rayyz• 16 Nov 2007 20:47

You've failed to get the point. The fact still remains is that there isn't any other religious car planned for a launch at least. Its a Marketing gimmick to get people in the name of religion.

Oh la la, next we know, the market will have Christian and Jewish maybe also Buddhist cars..:)) ummm, why not atheist and agnostic cars too. All with special plate numbers.

I'm imagining heightened road rage and increasing deliberate car accidents..:))
