The CEO of GS Motors — Kathleen Ligocki — told the Hybrid Cars website that she thinks the US will follow in Mexico’s footsteps. GS Motors sold 4,000 China-made vehicles in Mexico last year at…Costco and Wal-Mart..."

"GS Motors will launch the FAW brand in Mexico this year with the F1 Hatchback, an entry-level car sold for under $5,500. FAW, one of the largest Chinese automakers, is allied in China with Volkswagen."

Sweet. If it ever breaks down, just take it back to Walmart for a full refund.

Kind of like back in the early 50's when Henry J's were being sold by Sears. Henry J's were cooler though.
