Plans are already in motion for a merger with Chrysler but I just saw on channel four news that there are talks about possibly buying the European side of gm Inc vaux...

We already share chassis and engine technology

Yeah, rather have a European company in charge of Vaux/Opel than American.

I think it's a good move IMO. Just hope we don't get Italian electronics
