No way

I could possibly consider a a China-assembled non-Chinese brand with a history of good overseas assembly quality (Honda, Toyota to a lesser extent, their EU and Turkey transplants are much worse, or Mercedes).

But I will never consider a Chinese-owned brand, whatever you call it or whatever its history is.
Way too many stories of test batches being VERY different from serial runs, terrible materials choice and inconsistent manufacturing quality, etc, etc.
