Keep - car manufacturers are almost always notable, and this one has numerous third-party coverage, particularly in Italian: [1]. Rangoon11 (talk) 12:29, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ No evidence it's a manufacturer--it simply imports and rebadges Chery cars. Also, it fails every criteria in notability. Fleetham (talk) 15:34, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Acutally, it does appear to be notable, indicating you did not follow WP:BEFORE. Also, as your nomination counts as a !vote, you should ~~strike~~ your delete !vote here as you are only allowed to !vote once. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 19:11, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Manufacturer or remanufacturer, this company appears to meet the applicable notability standards. Italian-language sources found immediately through Google News: [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. Appears to be a WP:BEFORE failure on the nominator's part. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 19:11, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
