But...buying domestic IS buying Japanese. Even BMW's are made in America!
I didn't know BMWs were Japanese made. Last time I looked they were a German company.
How about I define "domestic".
American designed and made cars. Cars that come from companies that were founded in the U.S. like G.M., Ford, Chrystler, etc. Just because a car is manufactured in the U.S. by a foreign owned company, doesn't make it domestic.
I'm betting you won't see any "ricers" as collectable cars in 30+ years. Classics like the Mustang, 409 and 55-57 Chevs are true classics made in the "U.S.A.".
