oh, and I already helped support our automakers with that taxpayer funded bailout

Sorry for us old folks that will always be the definition.
and they are all still ricers.. weather it be a 1200 hp Supra or a ghettoed out Civic with a wing bigger than its hood... still a ricer.

Oh another one of those butthurt people that bought foreign cars so long and is upset we had to help save our OWN industry and country.

please.. I will never buy another foreign car again. time to support the home industries and stop making Japan rich.

is Toyota a American car ?

[Mchlgrrsn]

no. I dont care where its built ... if money gets shipped back to Japan its a Japanese car. I know they build a lot of stuff here, thats just a little bone they throw Uncle Sam, the big profits are eventually shipped back to Japan. I am not a basher, i keep my principles to myself, i really dont care what other people do. I also said whenever possible, i also think Uncle Sam makes it very hard for people to always buy American. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do

Pretty ignorant and hypocritical response. A lot of foreign cars now are made in the US, whereas the Camaro is made in Canada. BMW, Mercedes, VW, Honda, Nissan, Toyota, Kia, Hyundai, Subaru, and probably some more I'm missing all have plants in the US.

Either way, buying from one of those manufacturers is still supporting the thousands of American people that work in those plants and have jobs because of those companies.

LOL.. someone didn't pay attention to economics..
all that money still goes overseas other than the labor.

We nearly lost Ford and GM.. and nearly have lost Detroit as a whole.
that means no more Mustangs. No more CAMAROS.. and no more Corvettes..
But hey thats ok we are still having some jobs building ricers in our country...
/rollseyes.
Wasn't it enough to lose Pontiac?

American muscle nearly died due to people buying Stinkotas.

THAT ladies and gentlemen is why America is dying.

thats the way capitalism works, or at least used to. you can't compete and you go away. it prevents capital from being wasted on inefficient uses. well, used to.
