Rover to be built in Oklahoma

Found this on CNN's web site. Never thought this would be the first Chinese owned vehicle sold (and built) in the USA!

"Rover" will not be built in Oklahoma. "Rover" is a name owned by BMW and apparently licensed by SAIC of China. Nanjing owns the MG name.

Lol, sorry. I was having a hard time deciding where to put the topic (Europe or Asia). That is where those 4 minutes went. I guess it is a sign of the times when a person has to actually think what country to put MG in!

Yeah, I thought Asia since Nanjing is a Chinese company...the MG brand was British brand, though..

Interesting times we live in..cars with a British brand, formerly owned by a German company, may be built in the US by a Chinese company.

Even if they are now a Chinese-owned company, it's good news for Oklahoma.
