Well it appears that so-called “interest” in the area of the Persian Gulf have their eyes on Hummer after all. Apparently, there are a couple of investors querying GM about the brand.
The Middle East could be a perfect fit for Hummer. Gas prices are very low -- heck they own the stuff. And Hummer still has a reputation as a status symbol there.
People who think that a Middle East company will ultimately buy Hummer also point to the fact that Mubadala Development Company in Abu Dhabi bought 5 percent of Ferrari in 2005 and Investment Dar of Kuwait bought half of Aston Martin last year.
Our take? Question is: If a Middle East company doesn’t buy Hummer, then who will?
