The first time we saw something that could roughly be equated to a sport coupe from <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/geely/">Geely</a> was a few years ago at the Detroit Auto Show. That red car had some enormous panel gaps and dubious styling. My, how times change. The star of Geely's new midrange Gleagle brand (we're pretty sure it doesn't come across as oddly in Chinese as it does in English) was the GS coupe. <br />
<br />
Similar in size to Scion Tc, the GS is powered by a 1.3-liter turbocharged inline four producing 127 horsepower. It can be paired with either a six-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed dual clutch unit. If any Chinese automaker is going to make it to the U.S., Geely seems the most likely and its purchase of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/volvo/">Volvo</a> could even give it access to a sales network. <br />
