How much world travelling have you done? Obviously not much. I've spent a decent amount of time in central and south america and I can assure you that cars from all manufacturers vary greatly in other countries. How many propane powered cars do you see here? How many diesel Toyota trucks are there? You could have at least gone to wikipedia before spouting off about the Corolla. Not to mention that the Corolla is a rarity in that it does carry it's nameplate worldwide more than any other car.
