Every country I know of has this, America as well (US citizens are amongst most patriotic people in the world).
The difference is that german automakers started competing with japanese cars early on and were able to be a serious competition to import all this time (and if car from my country is as good as import and with the same price, why fight old habits and support overseas companies?), while The Big Three was ignoring the japanese competition and lost.

So yeah, GM has a really big chance now -- especially with its latest really great cars (Chevy Spark and Cruze, Opel Astra and Insignia) -- to step up and show some quality cars that'll attract people scared of japanese.
(Ford is doing well and nobody cares about Chrysler anyway
