No joke, I think I can count the number of asians driving american cars on one hand. But...most people if had the choice of what car they could buy, I would bet they would pick a foreign one over an american one. I personally have owned only a few cars, to include a couple different fords (car and truck), a chevy, a vw and a bmw. Of course out of them all I think the BMW is by far the best, better built. catch is price of everything to it. I would never buy a foreign truck, but as for cars, I belive there is by far better choices on the foreign market...
Asian-designed cars (irregardless of where they're assembled) are designed for longevity and quality. That's never been a high priority for US auto-makers. Their priorities are power, looks, gas mileage and maximum profit for their auto mechanics and dealerships.
Not counting the captive imports, like the smallest Chevys that are made by Suzuki, I think the number of traditional American cars assembled in Asia and sold in the USA is something on the order of Zero.
Yeah, see I was looking for an economy car for the fiance.
But looking at Saturns too, and they were "parts made in <insert asian nation> and assembled in the US".
Although like the Aveo, which I think is just a Kia was made/assembled in like Byung Yang or some shit.
Again, this is just from me week of economy car shopping.
