Re: GM considers selling Chevrolets in South Korea

  1. HSV is already there with it's whole range and already selling more cars than ever. Alone they sell 6,000 cars or 6% of that market, which makes them probably a top ten player.
  2. Cadillac is supposedly coming to be 'upmarket GM' - how can Holden move upstairs if they're already carrying an expensive lodger in the attic?
I think the success of HSV is killing the market for the so called "Premier Group". HSV has people trading in their 6 cylinder Mercedes/Audi's for their wilder V8 options. I cannot fathom the logic of having Saab, Hummer and Cadillac as a seperate so-called luxury grouping, when the first two already are struggling for sales and we have thrashed the Cadillac issue to death. HSV has already become Holden's "Premier Grouping"
