Originally Delphi, now China... not GM

Sort-of nit picky to say Delphi isn't GM.

sure, for other's benefit - it became 'fully' independent in 99 before the magnetic ride systems were commercialized (i think)... business lines including the magnetic ride were sold to Chinese co in 09... licensing of the tech to GM, Ferrari and others has always been transacted by Delphi not GM and now from the Chinese co. It's possible there are patents held by GM that are cross-licensed to this entity, who knows. In any event, it seems to be a product of US engineering, which is nice to see
