Penske buys Saturn
|
Saturn is far more successful than GM ever gave them credit for...why GM didn't save Saturn and dump so many of their other gas-hog brands is beyond me, but then again...they fought the CAFE since the 1960s.
|
I gather that GM will continue building the Saturns as Penske has bought the dealerships. He has two years to find another builder and that all seems strange to me. What is wrong with the people building them now?
|
That has be a bit puzzled too. Why not Keep those people working and let penske buy the plants as well. Who knows maybe he don't want em.

We don't have TV anymore, but our radio just said Saturn is dead .. and for good ... and Saturn is now to be a thing of the past. Bet the Saturn workers here ain't happy at all. Jobs ain't easy to come by. :(

Penske offered to look after the dealerships if someone could be found to build the Saturn. No one stepped up to the plate and dealerships without a car to sell does not seem viable.

Wonder if any Chinese car companies will swoop in over the carcass...
