Yes it is an imported car, built by foreign workers and with a company owned by another country which holds US debt......hmmm just like Porsche then. And people buy those without any concerns.

The politics of China are a totally against Western ideas, maybe that will change at somepoint in time (but not anytime soon). And still WalMart is the biggest supermarket chain in the US, and most of their products come from??????

Looking at what happened to Hyundai, which went from building cars with a reputation of being cheap and not-all-that good to becomng a American manufacturer, no-one knows what will happen in the future. BMW and Mercedes-Benz are now US manufacturers.

Bearing in mind the large amount of "domestic" cars built in either Mexico or Canada and "imported" cars built in the US, the only real reason to be unhappy is that the cars could (and should) have been built within the US...but the domestic manufacturers were pushing on with their ideas of filling the country with SUVs. The largest volume selling vehicle in the US is the Ford F150 pick-up.
