What kind of background information do you need, curiosity?

Some other girls have pointed out the facts.
I think it's silly to drive/buy a porsche in Singapore becos you can't drive fast here.
Maybe he's trying to show off his car. If so, this guy is too much into outer looks. Not my kind of guy.

As for the american, the one thing that interest me is his background and he's bilingual. My ethnic background is asian. My parents can hardly speak english. A man like that will impress my parent.. and so my parents will have no reason to stop me from dating a caucasian guy. That's why i choose him

Gal,
   A bilingual american with asian acestry means that he is not caucasian.  People don't just turn caucasian by living in America for a long enough period of time  .

sorry for the misunderstanding.

Well, I think I will still pick the american over the european guy. Unless there are other facts about this amercian guy that shows that he's also into outer look.  When that happens, i think i will not choose either of them

Hmm... strange how no one seems to have mentioned the word/concept of love in their replies. Have we gotten so egoistic as to only care whether we would be comfortable with the guy or not? What about love? Ok, so maybe I am old-fashioned, but I thought the choice of mate largely, if not solely, depended on whether you love the person or not?...

If love isn't factored into the equation (i.e. either she loves both guys or she doesn't care for either), then I suppose the choice of one or the other would largely depend on personal preference of lifestyle & standard, as in, which guy would be able to offer the most. On the other hand, why not choose both?   If there is no love involved, she shouldn't care much about feelings, should she?

Nobody said that love is not important in a relationship, in fact, it has utmost importance.  But often, at the beginning of a relationship, it is usually the chemistry and infatuation, rather than love, which comes later as the relationship develops.  My friend is an excellent person, she likes both of these two outstanding men almost equally (she, herself, is an outstanding woman).  She is not willing to see two people at the same time, but finds it very hard to choose without getting deeper into a relationship. I found that the limited differences in those two men on the surface are intriguing, and would like to know how other people would choose, that's why the discussion.  Ultimately, I am not trying to advise my friend on her relationships.

Just for Laughs

New criteria !!! no more 5C's but 5B's

Heard of the 5 B's?
B - BMW
B - Body
B - Brain
B - Billionaire
B - Bungalow

Most of you would have heard of the Singapore 5 'C's
Car, Condo,Credit Card(Gold), Cash and Career

The latest is 5 'K's ...
Kiasu (scared of losing)
Kiasee (scared of dying)
Kiabor (scared of wife)
Kiaboh (scared of having nothing)
Kiachenghu (scared of government)

We've been reading about the 5 C's and 5 K's for Singaporeans,
now comes the 5 Numerals and Malaysia's equivalent...

Singapore's "practice" for Simple Living :
1 - One Wife
2 - Two Children
3 - Three Bedroom Condo
4 - Four Wheels
5 - Five Figure Salary

That's why "Singapore is solid" ! Malaysia is in such a bad shape
because....... Malaysia's "practice" to Simple Living:

5 - Five Children
4 - Four Wives
3 - Three Figure Salary
2 - Two Wheels
1 - One-Storey Link House...
