Looks spot on to me.

Also amusing is where the cars are built.

Toyotas are built in Kentucky but the Camaro/ Firebirds were built in St. Therese Canada. Didn't BMW build a plant in N. Carolina too?

Pople won't buy imports on principle, yet a lot are built here in the states....LOL.

Whealy...can you tell me where you found this?? I would actually like to get a print of it somehow for my office. If I know where it's at, I can probably download it, which I assume is what you did to post it.

Thanks!

Look at what VW is amassing in terms of marqs

I read the other day they are in discussions with Fiat on a majority stake in Ferrari too (for the racing).

I own a V8 Touareg. Basically, a rebadged Porsche w/ 6-speed tiptronic transmission!!!! You can also get it with a V10 Turbo Diesel or special order a W12 engine!!!!!!!!!

They have come along way since the beetle.........

The BMW plant is in Greenville, SC in the northwest corner of the state, just south of the NC/SC state line.

Whealy:

Thanks for the info.

Jim,

It was simply posted on another car site. The URL hosting the pic is http://www.photodump.com/direct/brandon_ae/carcompaniespic.jpg. You should also be able to right-click and print it.

Hope that helps.

Whealy,

THANKS!! I didn't even think about the "right click" ...it's printing now and then I can get it blown up for my office.
