Michaela Blaha (asker): 12:35 Jul 11, 2005: Oops, my mistake - hopefully the moderators can do something about that. Sorry!

(Finally:) Quality inside!

说明：
Of course, the German expression "außen hui, innen pfui" means that the quality inside the car does not correspond to the quality of the bodywork etc, but I don't see a short and gripping way to express all this in English.

That's enough - fewer knick-knacks/extras on the exterior,

说明：
and more substance/real quality in the interior.
I think you'll have to change things around a little to get the meaning of the German phrase - I agree that there is no one set phrase.

7小时信心度：

a peach on the outside, a lemon on the inside

说明：
not exactly the same meaning as the original (in the context of cars, a lemon is one that has has lots of defects or breaks down often), but IMO it would be understood properly, and it has a nice symmetry of imagery.

or to make it shorter (and give the reader a bit of a challenge), \'a lemon in a peach skin\'
