Pretty brave to travel though North Korea if you ask me but they need to find new places I guess.. look how many curious always turn up in the main European cities.. probably even too much for them

it's actually not as ridiculous as most ppl think to go to north korea...as long as you're european...the americans are gonna have trouble getting visas etc...on the other hand, if even McD's is allowed to advertise...
still i'd be pleasantly surprised if it all happens without problems...

Why? I bet you they will be a lot safer than driving through Detroit.

If I have one of that supercars, I won't take my car to cruise that far.. Those Gumballers just don't know how to appreciate beautiful cars...

real-life version of Hollywood's Cannonball Run.
These twits don't even realize their was a real-life Cannonball Run long before the Hollywood version of the real-life race. :roll:

I guess it's a case of real-life immitating the movies immitating real-life.

to be honest I think this would be one of the best gumballs
simply put Kim Jong-il is a media and hollywood freak, he loves movies and entertainment, so he would prob. let the drivers show the limits of their cars, and we will see some 200mph+ highway runs.

Yep - Kimmy is an artistic hero.. :roll:

PYONGYANG, April 4, 2005 - In North Korea's version of Hollywood, there is only room for one star: the nation's "Dear Leader", movie buff extraordinaire, scriptwriter and casting agent all rolled into one -- Kim Jong-Il.

And just as Kim is small in stature -- he stands 1.62 metres (five foot two inches) without his reputed 10-centimetre heels -- so is North Korea's film industry, which churns out about 40 movies a year on budgets that Julia Roberts would not get out of bed for.

North Korea's state-run Korean Feature Film Studio, a dour one-million-square-metre (10.7 million-square-feet), military-guarded block of land about 15 minutes drive outside of the capital, Pyongyang.
Sounds like just the guy to "make a deal with" -- hopefully Maxie Boy will end up in prison for western subversion..
