China
From May 1999, Shanghai GM produced a version of the Century for the Chinese market. These models had slightly different names: the entry-level model was the Buick New Century, with more upscale models carrying the GL and GLX names. Later, G and GS models were added. Since the Century was sold in Asia, it should not be confused with the Japanese-market Toyota Century.

Aged in wrong, the empires are declining,
And China gathers, soundlessly, like evidence.

Mind is the one salvation?also grammar?
No; my little ones lean not toward revolt.”
