I surveyed the cars at my dealer's lot.  The window stickers show country
of manufacture.  The Golfs all say Germany.  The Cabrios, Jettas and New
Beetles say Mexico.  I'm certain mine came from Germany, because I ordered
it in July and was given regular updates from VW on its production status
and when it left port in Germany for Boston.

Really? I thought that all Golfs and Jettas for the North American market
was
produced in Mexico. They even put together the Cabrio there. I know that
the VR6
engines were imported to Mexico from Germany.
