         for us and in your analysis of cost of sales whether the fee and
depreciation associated
         with the noted assets and any other assets associated with the
production of your
         vehicles are included in cost of sales. To the extent material to your
analysis, quantify
         these costs as you do for other costs identified in your existing
disclosure.

         In connection with the above, please add a note to your notes to the
financial statements
         describing your accounting policy for cost of sales, including the
costs included therein.

Please disclose here
         an estimate of the costs associated with the construction and rent of

rental fee, the
         construction costs, renewal terms and your contribution to the local
economy.
Description of American Depositary Shares
Jurisdiction and Arbitration, page 189

3.       We note your disclosure on page 189 that the deposit agreement
contains provisions that
         irrevocably waive any right to a trial by jury in any lawsuit or
proceeding against the
         depositary or the company related to the company's shares, the ADSs or
the deposit
         agreement. Please disclose whether such waiver includes claims made
under the federal
         securities laws. If the provision applies to claims under the federal
securities laws,
         provide a risk factor regarding the impact of this provision of the
deposit agreement on the
         rights of ADS holders. In addition, address potential enforceability
issues. Finally, clarify
         that by agreeing to the provision, investors will not be deemed to
have waived the
         company's or the depositary's compliance with U.S. federal securities
laws and the rules
         and regulations promulgated thereunder.
4.       We note your disclosure that the deposit agreement has an exclusive
forum provision.
         Please add a risk factor addressing the risks of this provision for
your ADS holders.
5.       We note your disclosure on page 189 that the depositary will have the
right to refer any
         claim or dispute arising from the relationships created by the deposit
agreement to
         arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
American
         Arbitration Association. Please tell us and disclose the impact of
this provision on holders
         of your ADSs for claims under the federal securities laws.

6.       We note your response to prior comment two. Please explain to us what
"other cost"
         represents in your example of a redemption using credits and cash.

         In connection with the above, we understand that a selling and
marketing expense is
         initially recognized in the exchange transaction upon the awarding of
credits. However, it
         continues to appear that other income and cost of sales should be
recorded to properly
         reflect when merchandise is sold, regardless of whether the form of
payment is cash or
         credits. Please advise.
       You may contact Theresa Brillant at 202-551-3307 or Doug Jones at
