Carrozzeria Bertone and Karmann have come upon hard times. The former has FAW among its buyout bidders, and even entered talks with Gonow; and the latter has been talking to SAIC about a European base for 550 production.

But nothing so far. What are the chances for the dynamic Chinese auto industry to breathe new life into these European greats?

never heard of Carrozzeria Bertone and Karmann
are they EU small car manufactueres? or they build parts?
