How do the Malaysian women feel about American/Caucasian men?

There's more amazing drives up here than a person could do in a lifetime (but I'm trying!).

You definitely need to keep to the summer unless you've got snow tires on. The weather can roll in awful fast!

I've seen a few, but they're not that common. I think the last two I saw were both Seal Gray. There's another reason not to get that color (it seems everybody has it).
