A 你這新車才買了一個月，就被你虐待成這副模樣了！
nǐ zhè xīn chē cái mǎi le yī gè yuè, jiù bèi nǐ nǜedài chéng zhè fù múyàng le!
You've only had this car for a month, and you've already beaten it up like this!
B 車買了就要開，又不是拿來做擺設。
chē mǎi le jiùyào kāi, yòu bù shì nálái zuò bǎishè.
Once you've bought a car, you need to drive it! You don't just get it to be a decoration.
A 我看你肯定去飆車了，右邊的後視鏡都碎了。
wǒ kàn nǐ kěndìng qù biāochē le, yòubiān de hòushìjìng dōu suì le.
Looks to me like you've definitely done some drag-racing. The right mirror is smashed!
B 反正上了保險，大不了去修一下，回頭找保險公司報銷。
fǎnzhèng shàng le bǎoxiǎn, dàbuliǎo qù xiū yīxià, huítóu zhǎo bǎoxiǎngōngsī bàoxiāo.
Well, anyway, I've got it insured. The worst that can happen is I'll go get it repaired. Then later I can have the insurance company reimburse me.
A 真是服了你了。
zhēnshì fú le nǐ le.
I am in awe.
B 哎，我帶你去兜兜風，怎麼樣？
āi, wǒ dài nǐ qù dōudōu fēng, zěnmeyàng?
Hey-- how about I take you for a spin?
A 好，坐坐你的新車。
hǎo, zuò zuo nǐ de xīn chē .
OK. I'll take a seat in your new car.
A 哎，你這車性能不錯嘛，光聽這引擎聲就知道馬力十足。
āi, nǐ zhè chē xìngnéng bùcuò ma, guāng tīng zhè yǐnqíngshēng jiù zhīdào mǎlì shízú.
Hey, your car performs well. Just listening to the engine I can tell that it's got plenty of horsepower.
B 看不出來，你還挺在行的！我這車是改裝過的，所以加速特別快！坐好了，我讓你感覺一下。
kàn bù chūlái, nǐ hái tǐng zàiháng de! wǒ zhè chē shì gǎizhuāng guò de, suǒyǐ jiāsù tèbié kuài! zuòhǎole , wǒ ràng nǐ gǎnjué yīxià.
You're more of an expert than you seem to be! This car is refitted, so it accelerates really quickly. Sit tight-- I'll let you feel it!
A 哇，慢點，小心！
wā, màndiǎnr, xiǎoxīn!
Whoa! Slow down! Be careful!
B 沒問題，有安全氣囊呢。
méiwèntí, yǒu ānquánqìnáng ne.
No problem. It has airbags.
A 算了吧，你不要命，我還要命呢。開慢點。咦，你一個月就跑了一萬公里！你去開拉力賽啦？
suàn le ba , nǐ bù yào mìng, wǒ hái yào mìng ne. kāi màn diǎnr. yí, nǐ yī gè yuè jiù pǎo le yīwàn gōngli! nǐ qù kāi lālìsài la?
Forget it! Even if you don't want to go on living, I do! Slow down. Wow, you've done ten thousand kilometers in just a month! Did you do some rally racing?
B 都是我兄弟們開的。一個個問我借車。
dōu shì wǒ xiōngdì men kāi de. yīgègè wèn wǒ jiè chē.
It's all from my buddies. Each and every one of them has asked me to borrow the car.
A 他們肯定也喜歡飆車。你們當心點兒，老這樣開，很容易磨損發動機的。
tāmen kěndìng yě xǐhuan biāochē. nǐmen dāngxīn diǎnr, lǎo zhèyàng kāi, hěn róngyì mósǔn fādòngjī de.
They must also like drag-racing. You should be careful. If you drive like this all the time, it's really easy to wear out the engine.
B 你們女孩子啊，就是小心。我玩兒的就是心跳。
nǐmen nǚháizi ā, jiùshì xiǎoxīn. wǒ wánr de jiùshì xīntiào.
You girls! You're so cautious. I do this for the thrills.
A 好好好，你的車，你自己做主。哎，你的車是手動擋啊？
hǎo hǎo hǎo, nǐ de chē, nǐ zìjǐ zuòzhǔ. āi, nǐ de chē shì shǒudòngdǎng a?
OK, OK. It's your car, you're the boss. Hey, does your car have manual shifting?
B 會開車的人肯定要開手動擋，自動擋哪兒過癮？一點兒手感也沒有。
huì kāichē de rén kěndìng yào kāi shǒudòngdǎng, zìdòngdǎng nǎr guòyǐn? yīdiǎnr shǒugǎn yě méiyǒu.
People who can drive definitely want to drive manual. Where's the fun in automatic? It doesn't feel like anything at all.
A 我看你是F1看多了。音響是這個鍵吧？哇，好震撼啊！
wǒ kàn nǐ shì F yī kàn duō le. yīnxiǎng shì zhè ge jiàn ba? wā, hǎo zhènhàn ā!
The way I see it, you've watched too much F1. Is this the button for the stereo? Whoa, it really vibrates!
