General Motors has announced it will sell a version of its Saturn Sky Red Line in Korea. The car, named the G2X for “Go to Extreme,” will be sold and badged under GM’s Korean arm, GM Daewoo. The G2X is scheduled to arrive in show rooms on September 1 with a price tag of 43.9 million won ($46,600 U.S.). GM also sells a version of the Saturn Sky in Europe under its Opel brand.

How about they stick with G2X and just don’t tell anyone what it means, because that totally ruins it.

The added asthetics only make the car look cheaper, such as the grill new grill insert…
I seriously wish some automanufacturer would come up with some aspiring names, not “MKZ” or “G2X”. Auto designers spend hundreds of hours perfecting their product, yet they seem to not be capable of agreeing on a design name that hasn’t been used yet, and has some provocative meaning other than letters…

Haha this is ridiculous. GM made a decent car, the Solstice/Sky, and now they’re ruining it with so many rebadged versions. Opel has a version, the GT, and now DAEWOO HAS A VERSION?? And they named it the G2X?? AND IT COSTS ALMOST $50,000 USD? I’ll PASS.

they are only making a few hundred of them, selling in a non-competing market, and making a ton on them. The more they can sell wordwide for a ton of money, the better. Plus, it keeps the nice folks in Wilmington hard at work making these things. Doing this is good for the company’s bottom-line, good for the workers (thus the economy) and good for the platform, as they make back their investment on it. It costs them nothing to do this. None of us will ever see a G2X, so who cares?

I don’t get how this is “ruining it with rebadged version’s.” They’re selling the car under the marques they’re represented by in those countries. That’s like complaining about Honda selling the Honda Integra as the Acura RSX and the Honda Accord as the Acura TSX, or any of the other dozen examples of the exact same practice.

CTS – what are they supposed to do? Call it a Saturn? Who the **** knows what a Saturn is in Korea. For us, Daewoo is the gayest name in the world but for them it’s like ‘pontiac’ is to us.

damn you all beat me to it… everyone knows Lambo is not only ignorant but evidently illiterate as well.
How the **** is a car that’s going to be sold in another country halfway around the world going to have any bearing on you whatsoever. We’re never going to see the car so what does it matter. Global platforms and badge engineering aren’t necessarily the same things.

Commodore: reminds me of the “Quarter pounder with cheese” explanation from “Pulp Fiction.”
The best “Daewoo” ever
