Where did you hear this? A news article or just random talk you've overheard. I'd be more likely to believe an article from a reputable auto news source than anything else

This came from a good source. At this time I can not say. I hope it is true. Time will tell.

If it's a good source, why do you need confirmation from this forum?

The info is probably from the CIA (Central Ignorance Agency)

If anything, I would think the Spring Hill, TN plant would be a wiser choice. While I no doubt would love to see the employees be working at both plants... the TN location is newer, with a more recent overhaul... and soon to be idled as they move Traverse production to join the other 3 Lambdas. It is also the birthplace of Saturn.

Now... Wilmington would also make sense if the new Saturn is making Renaults or their subsidiaries vehicles... and need to be closer to a port to ship overseas as an overflow location.

No way

Trust me, this is just a rumor.

1) Why would Penske want to burden himself with that sort of overhead when he can just rebadge cars?
2) Assuming he DID take on that much debt, develop R&D, develop design assets, build a huge physical and human infrastructure, why would he want to do so in union states?

I would bet that if the Penske program works using first Saturn's waning production schedule and then Renault for inventory, he will sell the network to Renault and walk away with a BUCKET full of cash. Forget all the emotion - think of the financial aspects and potential.

If he buys Wilmington, no where have I found information to support that theory, he won't be building the Sky or the Solstice.

 

[DirtyMike]

nope :bs:

 

[mbeardsley]

We've been through this already...Bigfoot and Elvis have bought the plant and are secretly building Kappas for Michael Jackson.

 

[Miami Sky]

I guess that means Tupac and Notorious BIG will have to settle for buying the Spring Hill plant

 

[Texas Red Line]

I heard it was to build Chinese cars for sale in the India market.

No, no, no, DeLorean is buying Wilmington - ROFL!!!

Y'all must have seen that bit of facebook stupidity....................

Neither Penske or Wynne are that dumb with their money - unfortunately!
