Many cars sold in the US are built in Mexico. And I do mean MANY.

Yea, that's why I think it's funny when people say, "Buy American because it's made in the good ol US of A Woooooo hooooooo *gun fires in the air*" when a lot of American cars are built elsewhere, meanwhile Toyotas has some of it's cars actually built in their plant in Kentucky lol

But really why is it a big deal? Globalization is the name of the game when it comes down to international business. Cheaper labor = lower means of production = higher profits

On Topic: Ive seen a few of them running around downtown LA, they look a bit weird to me, and I'm curious to see the real world MPG
