  Built in China is going to automatically disqualify it from my list.

  Makes me curious how you are logging in here and posting. Me, I'm on my Chinese Lenovo.

  By marketing to young families, as someone who is older and is looking for a near luxury SUV, I am turned off.
  Would BMW do that with their X3?

  I've seen the VIN sticker for one of these, no mention of China, just a VIN starting with "L", and a mention of SAIC - no doubt 99% of people have no clue about. It'll never be mentioned.

  It's just a further step in the un-Americanizing of "American" brands. I know almost everything we buy is made in China, and I'm saddened by it. Look around your house and look at the labels on everything - it's a real challenge to find anything that's NOT made in China. I just hope for Buick's sake this is a well designed, engineered, and built car regardless of where it ships from. "Buying American" is becoming (or actually has been for a while now) an unclear statement. Is an American brand built abroad still American? What about a foreign brand built in the USA? Is it more about parts content? What exactly defines an American car anymore?
