great quality vehicles can be made ANYWHERE, by ANY people. what matters is the equipment, the training, the management, the workers, the designs, and above all the PROCESS.
to say americans, africans, indians, whomever can't make quality vehicles is flat wrong given the above.
again, i don't see people complaining about the quality of RX's made in Canada, or accords made in ohio.

Only sedans are made in East London, South Africa, right? Station wagon/estate versions (S204) are all made in Germany right?
I kinda agree somewhat........although personally I **** at the idea of BMW 5ers made in Malaysia, E90s made here locally (next to an old Kia factory line
) or Jags or Land Rovers made in India though with TATA financial earnings bouncing back, it looks like they'll stay in the UK
No offense (and no I don't mean to be racist or offensive to any culture or people in any way) but we have to put things in perspective. Let's be honest here though.
If you were a premium car buyer, would you still buy your Lexus if it were made say in a factory in Uganda or an Audi A6 built in Bangalore, India?
Hehe such is indeed the power of human perception

I do want to say the BMW plant in South Africa won a quality award last year.
