Detroit — Most Buick vehicles sold in the United States after 2016 could be imported from China and Europe, according to two sources familiar with parent General Motors Co’s plans.

You mean Bruicks?
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Looted Motors is more like it.
Who is going to build the Coyote X?
Just what I want, a car I can’t put my dog in without killing it! Don’t even ask where the leather interiors come from.
Better yet, who is going to build the DeLorean or as the Chinese say DeRorlean.

Loved my LeSabre. If I could get a new one I would buy it in a New York minute.
Hope!!
Change!!!
Etc,etc,adn.!!
Maybe we could add even more costly EPA/Gov regs to Manufacturing? Do you think that would keep the jobs in America?
Trump will have a field day with this...how long has he been warning us about *Chiner*?

General Tso’s Motors!
The political, business and financial elites that helped create USA government policy that outsources our jobs and economy to China etc are traitors to America just as surely as were the Commie Rosenbergs that gave our nuke secrets to Soviets.
Well as granpappy sez ... Buick is the sound you make when you throw up.
The last Chinese Emperor's personal car was a Buick, so it is seen as a status symbol in China. GM almost killed the make before getting a clue.
Well, they are better than Chevies and not as showy or expensive as Caddies. It’s a status symbol there. Had relations with Russia gone better (and the corruption in Russia stated at reasonable levels) after the breakup of the USSR, wealthy Russians were clamoring for US goods and we could have set up shop there. Now they generally buy European stuff.
