<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(240sxer @ Jul 5 2006, 09:36 AM) [snapback]281467[/snapback]</div> Good queston, but based on my Prius' label plate and VIN, it is 100% non-domestic (note that 'domestic' means Canada and/or USA) Interestingly, that label discounts vehicles that have 'North American content'; ie: Mexico., so in many respects, those big Dodge trucks are 'imports' as well
Import. It's built in Japan and I'm fairly certain most of the parts are sourced from Japan. (my wager is about 90% Japanese parts) The new Camry is 95% Japanese, 5% US/Canada. That is, until the production gets moved to Kentucky lol.
