MG P9 the Chinese Maverick?

[Cancunbadlands]

The large, iconic Lexus "spindle grille" was the brainchild of a collaborative team of Japanese designers led by Katsuhiko Inatomi and overseen by former Lexus global design chief Tokuo Fukuichi, and project chief Koichi Suga.

I'm not fan of big grill but it's standard nowadays
Look at Toyota and Kia

John,
Is the the grille you mean?

Yup, that’s a smaller one LOL. When Mazda started using that idea (smaller) they gave it a Japanese name… maybe one of those you mention. Looks like a late 1800s locomotive.

Nearly 20 years ago SAIC bought the rights from Nanjing who bought the logo before that. Been selling nice looking models since then (maybe it’s the Roundel that makes the look). They are a “state owned” asset, so I’m guessing locally sourced parts.

The video was in Spanish not English,
Useless click bait.

No, not click bait, just not in your native tongue. As you explore the world you will find other languages aside from English are spoken all over.

I’m well traveled,
Canada,
West Germany,
France,
Russia,
Italy, I’ll stop there.

The saying,

If you speak three languages your
TRI-lingual.
If you speak two languages your
Bi- lingual.

If you speak one language,
Your American.
:’P

The most spoken language in the world is Spanish then comes us.

I am above considering your comment a poke or Jab,
I know you don’t know any better.

They could have easily used the google translator,
Or Apple,
Or Siri,
Or even A. I.

But wasn’t it basically introducing the vehicle available at dealerships in South America?

It was a jab. Great work picking that up.

I guess my point was that not everything is going to be in English, especially videos from foreign markets. But you knew that because you're worldly.

Just because it is in English does not make it "click bait." It makes it a video that is not in English. As for the translation, that is built-in to YouTube. Click the closed captions and pick a language, easy as that.

Yeah it's for sale south the border

The factory I finished out my working career with located in the USA made auto parts for BMW that were exported to China for the assembly plant there. I wonder if Chinese people won't buy a car with USA made parts?

China buys more Buicks than Americans
While Washington and Beijing may rarely see eye to eye, Chinese car buyers have long been remarkably unified in their affection for one American brand. That brand is Buick, which last year delivered 436,729 vehicles in China, or more than double the 198,155 that found a home in the US.

China means good business to Buick
