I agree. The smaller premium brand companies such as Saab, Volvo, Aston Martin, Jaguar etc are all now owned by GM or Ford (mostly). You have to think that GM and Ford did not buy these to make GMs and Fords in Europe. Ford saved Jaguar by letting Jaguar build Jaguars. Volvo keeps bringing new products to market. Cross pollenation of ideas, technologies, platforms is a good thing IMO provided it does not result in simple rebadging. What would be the point in diluting any of the above brands with generic and simple rebadging?
