More people need to inform themselves of these facts before they make a car buying decision based on where they think a car is built. Chances are, your Japanese car isn't made in Japan, your German car isn't made in Germany, your Korean car isn't made in Korea, and only about a 50% chance your American car is built in America. A lot of people still place importance on where they think a car is built in their buying decision. Others just prioritize the origin country which is more practical these days.
I don't have the heart to tell my parents who both bought Corolla's after declaring they'll never buy an "American made" car again that their Corolla's were made in America. Of course, the important factor is that it's still Japanese engineered. |
