[English]

Everybody wants a fancy car

Get me a fancy car

Get me a brand new car

Who is the superstar model ride (Tesla)

Is it smart? Will it take care of me like an expert

(Civic) Looks neat and proper, realizing that others aren’t that bad

(Maserati) Classic and outstanding

(James Bond) The sexiness it exudes

Or the cute and delicate Beetle, matching my artsy and elegant vibe

(Veneno Roadster) Fierce and stylish in battle mode

With the most luxury and grace, swaying everywhere

E~oh e~oh

Jeep wandering with me in the wilderness, no matter how vast the world

Wow wow wow wow

E~oh e~oh

Trendsetting depends on style

Talent and control

Yearning to have fun with it all

Because it leaves me in awe

Who is my favorite new car

Choosing with all my might

Road testing all the retro new models begins

Picking a favorite, like the one I like best in new cars

Testing along the way slowly

Happiness in life depends on seeing the real deal

Fear of rushing the decision

Worried that pausing might cause missed chances

Unable to say no too quickly

Or to observe multiple times again

Who is my favorite new car

Understanding all my feelings

All are very stylish

Who would have guessed which one I like most

I like it, oh

Looks like a Porsche in style

Very fashionable and durable

Can't wait to take it out for fun and snapshots, always by my side

The charm of Humber, the fun of Mini

Both detailed and delicate

Wow wow wow wow

E~oh e~oh

Luxury and refinement

Collision safety and smooth driving

Capacity also matters

Because it leaves me in awe

Who is my favorite new car

Choosing with all my might

Road testing all the retro new models begins

Picking a favorite, like the one I like best in new cars

The roof is also opening

Looking forward to leaving right away

Hands in the air, give it a try

Traveling through the journey, highways changing along the way

Being with you makes time slow down

Wanting to pause in this moment inside the car

Which luxury brand is it?

Trendsetting depends on style

Talent and control

Yearning to have fun with it all

Because it leaves me in awe

Who is my favorite new car

Choosing with all my might

Road testing all the retro new models begins

Picking a favorite, like the one I like best in new cars

Testing along the way carefully

Refinished and changed, afraid to finalize with too much paper

Fear of rushing the decision

Worried that stopping might cause missed opportunities

Unable to say no too quickly

Or to observe multiple times again

Who is my favorite new car

Understanding all my feelings

All are very stylish

Who would have guessed which one I like the most

[Chinese]

Everybody want a fancy car

Get me a fancy car

Get me a brand new car

誰是男神型號座駕 (Tesla)

智慧化嗎 會照料我似專家

(Civic) 夠企理正經 發覺大眾也不差

(Maserati) 經典得出眾

(James Bond) 散發的那性感

或是甜美細小Beetle 襯我文藝及優雅

(Veneno Roadster) 戰鬥格氣派

以最貴氣美態 到處去搖擺

e~oh e~oh

吉普跟我浪跡於荒野哪管天下再大

wow wow wow wow

e~oh e~oh

潮流還看美感

能耐和控制感

年份還要計fun

誰讓我兩眼震撼

誰是我心水 新車

全力自選一次

全部復古新款路試開始

揀對象似心水 新車

沿路慢慢測試

人為幸福終身便看真點

如認投怕太過急

如暫停怕會錯失

如未能太快說不

還是再觀察多次

誰是我心水 新車

明白種種心意

全部都很標緻

誰料未知邊款是最鍾意

I like it oh

論顏值外型像Porsche

極時尚亦耐看

好想帶去打卡玩樂 隨時來陪伴我

Humber 的韻味 Mini的趣味

都一樣細膩

wow wow wow wow

e~oh e~oh

豪華和細緻感

防撞和暢快感

容量還要計分

誰讓我兩眼震撼

誰是我心水 新車

全力自選一次

全部復古新款路試開始

揀對象似心水 新車

簷篷亦打開了

期待立即可出發

Hands in the air 試一試

穿梭旅途 沿路高速變幻

伴你相對就如變慢

想知這時 凝住車廂片刻

是哪款名牌座駕

潮流還看美感

能耐和控制感

年份還要計fun

誰讓我兩眼震撼

誰是我心水 新車

全力自選一次

全部復古新款路試開始

揀對象似心水 新車

沿路慢慢測試

塗完又改不敢定過分紙

如認投怕太過急

如暫停怕會錯失

如未能太快說不

還是再觀察多次

誰是我心水 新車

明白種種心意

全部都很標緻

誰料未知邊款是最中意
