Japan for right now. In 2013 they will start importing small numbers from France.

My 2012 came off the boat from Japan.
And I have no problem with Chinese parts... ...as long as they are made to Japanese standards. |

All of the 2012s (3rd Generation) shipped to North America are made in Japan. Production from France is supposed to start arriving in the U.S. sometime during the Spring of 2013. The Daihatsu Charade in Europe (through the end of the 2013 model year) is the 2nd Generation Yaris (XP90) and many (if not all) of these XP90s sold new in Europe are made in Thailand. Toyota owns a controlling interest in Daihatsu.

I think the Yaris was designed by a French guy.
So we're all screwed, where ever they make them.
