Turns out, Buick is a HUGE prestiege brand in China. You know, the country with the seriously growing thirst for cars? Buick is apparently revered over there as a status brand. Nope, it's probably not going anywhere. Buick in China seems to be thought of like Caddy is in the US.

I hate to see things going the way they are, BUT bizness is bizness. As with all things, brands come and go. heck, Olds is dead, and Cadillac was nearly dead 10 years ago, now they have performance and style...who woulda thought? Hopefully Buick and Chevy will take up some of the performance stuff. As much as we might like Pontiac, their stuff isnt selling. The Ricers are kicking their butt. bock |
