i would bring my own armoured vehicle too if I'm a leader of a powerful country, visiting a hostile enemy territory.

[darkcloud]

Gotta to bring your own ride, can't trust the US.

[DSandy]

Good looking car. Makes sense to ride in his own country’s car.

[devuong]

China and the US depend on each other to remain in power. Rather than getting rid of each other, working together is the best solution for world peace.

[danielwong]

Hongqi literally meant Red flag, color of China national flag. Biden seem to be attracted by the car.

[ting]

Remind me of the old feeling back in the 70s 80s when everyone wanted to was longing for peace.

[MichBel]

So lovely and impressed to see that massive numbers of Chinese flag and patriots there abroad!

[PS-]

When will the first Hongqi dealership open in SF?

[mikewallace]

The limo has 400+ HP V12 engine . China loves fossil fuels and no concern for the environment . no joke.

**shows ultra high class luxury car**

Biden: it's like that..uh.. cadillac we have, over there

[dranzacspartan]

This was a very good thing to see. USA and China together. Now ... let's hope they can keep it up. If USA worked with China, then EVERY HUMAN BEING on our beautiful Planet Earth would prosper. Come on USA ... you can do it.

why did they dub a voice in for SEE YOU TOMORROW?

Not all cars are created with the same purpose. The price tag only indicates the journey that the vehicle will take towards uniqueness. In my personal opinion, the Beast is a bargain in technology, security, and, most importantly, trust, which cannot be purchased with money. It’s a sign of Generosity. I will soon visit my Ancestor's Land - One China is engraved in my Bloodlines. All the warlords in the past couldn't accomplish what I know someone who can. My servant received numerous reflections on a single topic: a car. - BOK-KI

I, Prophet JOB, will ensure to display utmost respect to all people of China. Throughout history, there have been only a few select individuals who possess the ability to impart valuable lessons to my Son by setting a powerful example for him to follow and learn from.

President Xi, Thank you again for your Time and gracious Heart through 情. ( Love, Affection, and Reason )

[Brick-Life]

The Hongqi is amazing and its good to see it in the USA!

[wahyuwijayanto]

Xi Jinping presiden China paling asyik, paling terbuka, berpikiran maju dan cerdas dibanding para pendahulunya.

[aaronsutton]

Is it chemical resistant, explosive proof etc

[argentosebastian]

Poor Joe. It is sad and depressing to see him.

[kiki_sg]
