If it does, it will be for China only like the rest of GM's discontinued sedans.

In China, though, Chevys, while popular, generally don't carry the same panache as Buicks, where they love the nameplate. Eighty percent of worldwide Buick sales are in China.

Subaru as a brand is kind of in no man’s land at this point. And mazda, Mitsibishi & a few others aren't?
They make strange looking wagons for regular people and really lost the enthusiast niche customers that really helped support the brand.

I wouldn't call the ppl that have Scubbies ''regular ppl'' 4 different size cuv/suv's for ppl that want a soft roader vs 4runners/Taco's. Depending on the area, the N/W, Denver & Salt lake & Lafayette have quite a few of them.
