Buy American?

Now the real question is, is it one of the SUVs that were built at GM's Silao, Mexico plant.

................ and back to the OP's original comments, most everyone here are car enthusiasts and understand the "global" reality of where parts are sourced from, where different makes and models are assembled, etc. It is really sad when some ignorant fool wants to damage you or your Z because you didn't "buy American", when so many imports are assembled in America, while that "American" vehicle they are sporting around was built in Mexico.
