Buick is the best selling car in China

The quality is much higher than the Chinese brands

A Chinese Buick?

Great. That should be an improvement. Like all Chinese imports, I would expect to pay about $8,000 for a new Buick.

Now that price - along with no union bloat - would and could entice me to buy a Buick.

But until then - forget it.

General Electric wants to do the very same thing with Locomotive production, under the guise of “For country-In country” over in China. I could all but guarantee that setting up factory production in China would lead to locomotive production over there for sales to Class 1 railroad customers here in North America.

If the only option is UAW labor if they build them here, I can’t really fault them.

GM flips the bird to its union workers and the taxpayers.

Without the ‘veto, what exactly is the reason for GM?

And they evidently are trying desperately to ruin that also, what with their exploding engines.

Someday, they’ll get the hint and hire their second engineer.

Was in China last year and noticed the Buick GL8 van, only available in China, was one of the most popular cars on the road.

I’d expect most of the vehicles to come from China, given the sizable operations GM has built up there. It’s the one foreign market where Buick is the best-selling brand in its market niche (entry-level luxury).

There’s a very large Buick factory in Shanghai, I’ve seen it. Most ‘upscale’ Chinese drive Buick’s. I hear they’re going to be making Caddies there too.

I’m guessing that’s why GM dropped Olds and kept Buick.

Does not matter to me. I will never ever buy another GM or Chrysler product.

That is after our family being loyal customers for decades.
