Default 2006 GS300/430 Made in??

All,

Well, is time to get rid off my old Acura RL. Thinking of getting a new 2006 GS. Not sure which model yet. Are both models Made in Japan? If so, which plant? Tahara, Japan??

Don't tell me is Made in Canada!

I am sure you will LOVE to read this. The GS is built in the highest quality plant in the world.

That's some good info. sicklex!

But, my question is whether the new redesign 2006 GS300/430 is still being built there?

I know for sure that the last model (Second generation) of the 2005 GS300/430 where in fact built in Tahara, Japan.

Yes it is, as well as the LS and the new IS will move production to there as well.

LOL. Comments like that are clearly not grounded or based in fact. I would just let comments like that go. (referring to the remarks from the thread starter).
