Visteon to build local plant

Jim Gillette, director of supplier analysis for CSM Worldwide, said Visteon's modest investment suggests this will be a small facility with limited flexibility. He expects the company decided to build it in the United States because of complex customer requirements for just-in-time sourcing. Otherwise, labor costs would be too high to warrant Visteon's investment in Michigan.

"That's really the only reason they would do it. The wage rates are sky-high, and there's a lot of excess capacity here," Gillette said. "It would have to be something very specialized."

Hey Tor, do you have your dot connector in the infinitely variable mode?

What do you think about this activity in Auburn Hills?

I was kind of thinking that this would be a good spot for Torvec's IVT work along with the Iso-torque work.
