US Yaris to be imported from France ?

[why?]

country of origin matters. More importantly, how old the plant is that is making the cars matters. Frankly, everything matters.

And mrpj is more pissed about the crappy transmission in his car, it is basically on par with the smarts tranny, ie utter crap.

But I've never heard any bad about British Yaris'. My sisters mother in law has had one for about a decade and loves it. I am sure they all have issues, just like our cars do.

But don't bring Chrysler into this, somehow they still make their minivans quality products, but the entire rest of the company, from the dealer network on up, is a total joke. I don't know how they still exist, oh wait, yes I do, someone stole our money and gave it to them, repeatedly. How many times should a company be bailed out before it is realized they don't deserve to be in any business at all?
