Good pic ! Doesn't much matter WHERE it's made anymore, there is a LOT of too lightly made vehicles/death traps on the road (hope you don't have one). I recently had my drivers door flung out of my hand by a gust of wind in a parking lot and it hit a BMW - oh poop! I thought. Also thought a little elbow grease and cut polish would do the job - NOPE, 2 thumb sized dents in the thing and the owner was inside. Amazingly the first thing he had in his hand was the 'report and accident' form. He whined and moaned a LOT, exchanged ins. info, told him to Pharkle his sparkle due to his attitude and walked away. Got a note from (B.C. Gov't Ins. Co) and talked to the body shop guy who fixed the 'damage' - $1,400.00. Body shop guy was happy, my ins. didn't go up (first accident EVER), what a joke !
 
I suspect the rear wheel on the bike is bent enough that the bike can not be ridden away. That looks like a mid-level aluminum frame road bike, I'll guess $100 to $200 to replace the wheel, and another $50 for a quality tire and tube.

The car...?
 
The picture looks fake to me. Even if the front of the car was plastic it would have done more damage to the bike than that.

Is that a Chevrolet "bowtie" emblem on the hub cap...?
I believe it is--It could be included in their [i:e8c02f545d]"recall"[/i:e8c02f545d] LOL
