Default GM PLANS TO BUILD CARS IN CHINA & EXPORT TO U.S.

GM is negotiating with the government to shift more of it's production to China.A spokesman for GM in Shanghai said it was only a matter of time before vehicles made in China are imported into the company's home market.GM will start shipping cars from China in 2011.The extra cars GM plans to import will be equal to the output of four U.S. assembly plants--the same number that will close in the U.S.I guess it won't be long before cars are imported from China up north here also.It's enough to make you want to puke! There's a picture in the article of a back end of a Chev and the badging reads''SHANGHAI GM''.Bill.

I agree 100%; if GM thinks they are in trouble now just wait until they start this crap.

I've been a 100% GM supporter all my life. Might just be five vehicles for sale before long.

I agree!

But don´t forget, Chevy has labled all Deawoo´s to Chevy here in Europe.

So i think thats possible to built in China and sell in the U.S.

But if so, i will never buy a new Chevy!!!

NOTE: Toyota Tundras are not as good as most people might think. I have been working out of a 2006 4X4 TRD that had to have a whole new Front 4X4 driveline, new Ball joints, A/C went out all under 30,000 mile warranty. A/C quit blowing cold again at 45,000. Transmission shifts like crap, Brakes have always pulsed, Paint quality (white) has blotches on the hood, The only thing I feel is good about the truck is the V8 has good power but it should they copied a mixture of Chevrolets SB and Fords overhead cam.
