Marquette was the name of two separate General Motors car brands. The first was an American automobile maker that General Motors set up in Saginaw, Michigan, after it bought the Rainier Motor Car Company in 1909; it continued the luxurious Rainier car and made parts for the Welch, and GM announced its closure in 1912. The name was revived by the Buick division as a junior companion brand for the 1930 model year, on sale from June 1, 1929, built on the GM B platform and priced in the 1,000 dollar range. It produced 35,007 vehicles in the United States in its single year before Buick shut it down without warning.
