Does anyone know if The 1998 Lexus GS400 was assembled by Unionized Labor? And if so by what union. My new job requires that I drive a union built automobile.

I don't think there are unions in Japan.

Oh man! What a load of CRAP! This is precisely why Unions can be VERY BAD. We had a guy who opened a Wendys a number of years back. He knew construction and decided to build it with a few of his buddies. That Wendys is still on the ban list (i.e. Unionized can't eat there) after 10-15 years. All because they didn't use Union labor to build.
