My car was indeed assembled in Pennsylvania.  However, that is NOT the
deciding factor in how a car feels when you drive it.  It's the engineering
behind it.  The Europeans(Germans in particular) engineer things differently
than the Japanese, and Americans.  That's where a car gets it's "feel."  How
many people out there can honestly tell me that any given Ford, GM or Chrysler
product "feels" the same way as a VW, Volvo, Honda, et al?
