Sorry, don't deal with stolen goods here. New US version STI'S. Atcually these cars very strong and powerful. They will not lose to a Japanese STI. The ony reasn they do so on paper is because of two things: 1) Fuel in Calfornia is only at 91 Octane while in Japan it is over 100! 2) The emission con...
Operated by Anas Al Nabhan in the computer market area of Bur Dubai. He partners with locals whom he gets to write bad checks to overseas suppliers that deliver goods to them where the checks then have no funds to cover. He then claims to be innocent and claims that he has nothing to do with the bad...
Mine does not reflect the light :D I'm a manufacturer for this item here in Taiwan. You need to check with your local laws for usage. There are many states in California that ban radar detectors and many that allow them. This is not the problem of the manufacturers but the problem of the end user ju...
Car weighs in at around 3310 Lbs. With over 320 Lbs. of Torque. It has a light flywheel and light-weight wheels. Car and driver pulled 0-60 on the new 335i in 4.8 seconds and that car had run-flat tires on it with stock wheels and no LSD. That car stock was making 300 HP and 300 LBS. TQ. The new 335...
I have the same problem here in Taiwan where there is a Buddhist temple near by. Every morning at around 6:00 a.m. they start playing these weird and most irritating sounds. I went there one day in the early morning and just sat outside his temple with the horn blowing till they all came out and ask...
Let's not forget the prayers 5 times a day after that contract is signed for 120K because that's Halal money :lol: Do you actually know what "Halal" is???? (As a Noun) meat from animals that have been slaughtered in the prescribed way according to the shariah (As an Adjective) proper or l...
once the contract is signed, you'll never see your landlord/s again not even for maintenance check of the unit. you'll see him/her before the last cheque will be cleared for another increase of rents. expats are working so hard to bring food on the table of the landlord/s and to finance their extra...
I dont get it, what's so funny? no major problem if u dont. it was a reply to asc, i am súre she got it, didn't u hun :wink: ? no not about your response, but about the thread topic itself... the thread is labeled 'this is funny', but I fail to see what is so funny Dubai is supposed to have a short...
I and 10 other close friends have units for sale in Dubai and neither one of us has been able to sell any of them because the buyer usually does not have 40-70% in cash to put up for a unit that may not be ready for another 1-2 years from now. As you know most go from 1,000,000 Dhms. on up. So one w...
This is going to lead to a tighter supply meaning higher prices for all expats seeking fun in Dubai. LOL! And that has you worried? Since I live in Asia i'm never worried about supply :D It's just that much nicer to be able to come out Jumeira Beach lay out on the beach with a nice babe, Go patying...
Definitely agree with you there. At times though people want something different. Mother always taught us to go home and at as there is always food in the refrigerator but I always liked to go out and buy something to eat Nothing beats home food though.
Most of the mentioned in the above post are a bit on the harsh side but in reality reveal the truth of how Dubai really is. It is tax free but they more then make up for taxes by charging you up the nose for other things. Their telecom rates for one thing are 4-5 times more then those of other count...
VIS! VERY TRUE! However, not all "LOCALS" are really Emiratis... who are generally quite soft-spoken. The others come from the surrounding GCC and most people just club them as LOCALS... AND... might I add that CRASS attitude comes from all sorts including Western & Eastern expats Yes...
Both crooks are still out there and free. As of now neither the government or the crooks have paid. Looks like they make great partners. Useless going through courts in Dubai as it is money down the drain if you rely on them to serve justice.
It looks like the government is cracking down on those that don't pay back the Banks or locals since most banks are owned by locals. Those that don't pay back their dues are getting arrested and aren't set free until they pay back their dues in full which in my opinion is fine but wht the hypocrisy ...
I think prices in Dubai will continue to tank and they will tank just like the stock market tanked in Dubai. Prices are still way too high in Dubai and these days people don't have money to spend on a unit that comes with crazy yearly association fees. Has anyone here seen how much the yearly mainte...

If you are a local, an expat being paid a high salary or are a rich person with money burning a hole in your pocket. For a lot of poor people from India or Asia Dubai can be hell for them. I guess it all depends on where you come from or your current position in life.
http://arabianmoney.net/2010/01/16/uae-website-successfully-sued-for-defamation-over-comments/ The unfortunate side of censorship is from critics that wish to silence the people. Of all the countries I have travelled to I have found that Taiwan's media offers more freedom than pretty much any other ...
That all depends on what you consider libel and slander. Talking about China's censorship could considered libel and slander by the Chinese which also would be the same in Saudi,Iran or even the UAE. This is the same reason these 3 countries I named as examples only do not have or sell gossip magazi...
Even if he was found guilty in court (which the judge wouldn't have the balls to do) he would for sure have been pardoned after and released. Instead of letting the Sheikh do the dirty work after they made sure that the judge ruled on the case the way he was supposed to. I am sure there was some beh...
