I work on my own Porsche, I like looking at the "made in X" when I replace a part, what was on the car, and what I'm putting in to replace it. Off the top of my head, this is where my "German" car is made.


Czechoslovakia, China, UK, France, Korea, Mexico, Brazil, Japan, USA, Italy, and a few parts are made in Germany to.

I have a feeling, that whether under unions or not, the quality of stuff in the USA is down, because a lot of workers don't care to do a good job, and if they don't care, then why pay them? Its a loop, and there is no motivation for a company to pay someone who is slacking more, so quality declines, and customer, worker, and employer satisfaction declines.
