I think Opel makes it. Deep pockets (Russian bank/govt), auto industry expertise (Magna), political protection (Russian govt). And, the European operations of GM make a company with decent scale.

Hummer I think does not make it, with the current deal anyway. I'm not even convinced this deal goes through. The market for Hummers won't be near what it was in the free money/cheap gas days, and a Chinese Hummer will have marketing issues in the US. Not sure about the brand's potential in China.
