I would say that a Skoda Superb is a rebadged Audi A6, badge engineering is alive and well in the 21st century. I can't understand why they didn't kill Buick instead, because they already have Cadillac for luxury (which is better known as a brand globally) and the end of Pontiac means they can't bring back the GTO, which is one of the best known nameplates of all time.
I had a nightmare of Obama and Pelosi riding a Fiat 500 on the Whitehouse lawn, planning to rename the country France. It could happen.
