Where would they “position” BMW’s X (and Z) line-up?
They’re made in the USA (Texas, if I’m right), but the parts pretty much all come from Germany.
And quite some of the cars, once finished, get shipped back to germany.
Are those american cars, then (final assembly), or German (parts, brand)?

That Buick Cascada is sold in Germany too, as an Opel (Vauxhall, Holden, GM).
It also has an Opel-drivetrain.
But it is strongly disliked over here, with some dealerships having cancelled contracts just to not have to have one in their showroom.

As far as I know Cascada isn’t even american. It isn’t even Buick. It’s Opel. Yes I know that Opel is part of GM, but they are just rebranding Opel cars with different names in the US. And also the Ram cargo van isn’t american (yes they pointed it out). It’s colaboration between Fiat, Citroen and Peugeot. There I sad it. Hate me or not it’s your choice

That is true. Ram Master is Peugeot Boxer / Citroen Jumper and Buick Cascada is originally Opel Cascada.

AND Donald McDonald trump want to build a wall! hahah he is really a

Honda Civic’s are made in Allison Ontario
Equinox are made in Ontario
Rav 4 made in Ontario
and this

I’m just happy that quite a few Ford models are still produced in the US. I’d prefer they were all produced here, but they’re all still american cars. Just more of a grey area for what defines a car’s “nationality”
