German government received 3 bids for Opel today
May 21, 2009
Bristol411S3, from many artciles (in german), such as: http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/news/opel-betriebsrat-franz-fiat-einstieg-ist-ein-horror-szenario-1249623.html Quoting the original: "Auch technologisch k?nne Opel nicht von einer Zusammenarbeit mit Fiat profitieren. "Es gibt nichts, was Opel von Fiat br?uchte. Die Italiener indes brauchen unsere Entwicklungskapazit?ten, unsere gro?en Motoren und gro?e Plattformen", so Franz. Aus der fr?heren Zusammenarbeit mit Fiat habe Opel nur schlechte Erfahrungen. "Fiat hat Zusagen nicht eingehalten. Der Technologietransfer war sehr einseitig. Wir konkurrieren in vielen identischen Marktsegmenten um die gleichen Kunden. Daraus konnte damals schon kein Mehrwert entstehen ? und wir sehen das auch f?r die Zukunft nicht."" You can translate it in google.

Who's the third bidder? Chinese Chery? I'm not happy with all the bidders. From what I've heard, Fiat wants Opel's technologies and nothing else. To crown it all, Marchionne wants to make Opel devision the most cheapest and lowest brand in Fiat Group, if so. GAZ and Sberbank have stakes in Magna, so instead of Volga Siber, they will produce Volga Insignia and so on. Russians also need Opel's technologies more than anyone. And Cherry. Well, that'll be only a shame for Opel and its fans.

But wait, that's Opel Insignia. Even the interior reminds me Insignia. Damn GM and its unification. Hate it.
