Good:
- MGs are comming back to the United States
- Some of the MGs will be built in the United States
- How often do you get to say your car was built in Oklahoma?
Bad:
- MGs are being built by a Chinese company
- I doesn't look like we will have the SV
- MGs don't have a great history with most Americans, given that the brand has not been here for some time.

It all sounds great, IMO. It sounds as though we would be getting the TF for sure, and I would hope the rest of the range is comming as well. From my side of the pond, I would say the ZT looks to be an appealing model...
Leftlanenews.comChinese automaker Nanjing Automobile Group which took over Britain's MG after its collapse in 2005 plans to build a factory in Ardmore, Oklahoma to builds the next-generation TF coupe, the company announced today. A new research and development center will also be set up at the University of Oklahoma. As previously rumored, MG's Longbridge plant in the U.K. will be used to build the roadster version of the TF. Nanjing plans to build between 12,000 and 16,000 TFs per year. About 60 percent of TF output for the world will come from the United States, while 40 percent will come from Europe. The automaker will also use a third plant in China to build MG sedans. The new MG cars will go on sale in the United States in early summer 2008, the automaker said.
