MG to return

It looks like a Maserati spyder to me.

Interesting to see what the Chinese will do with MG/Rover now.... will they sell them again in Europe?

Not retro enough for me. I'd like it to look more like the MG B last made in the fifties. Only useful if equipped with a modern DOHC in-line 6 cylinder engine. The sporty British car I would like to see return is one most everyone has forgotten about, namely the Bristol -- I'm sure it would sell if styled as it was when that marque was discontinued and if it were made entirely out of aluminum or stainless steel to prevent rust.

It would be nice to see MG return to the US. However with the Chinese still on a quality learning curve you wonder how well they will succeed. Other then price I see no other reason to look at a Chinese car when there is a perfectly ample supply of Japanese and Korean brands.

Good luck to the chinese company. I'm thinking, why maintain the british painting plant when they can do a fairly good job in China. I think its a formula for disaster. People wont be buying convertibles in China. As for Brand, the chinese has a lot of local branded cars in China from joint ventures with Big car companies. Have you guys ever heard of a car company called "Great Wall"?

Glorified Miatas? I dont think MG will be successful in the US market and the japanese did it better for 15 years.

Japanese did it better for 15 years so that means no one can do better.. the British cars is what the Miatas were modeled after.. Not saying I like this car .. I just hate it when people think no one but the Japanese can only build a good car... personally I would take a Saturn Sky over either one.
