I think if a car is designed in a country and put together there with parts from around the world then it's still that countrys car.
Like dick smith made dickheads. The tips were german? the sticks something else, the box something else also but it was all put together here, And called Australian owned and made, He made a great point with that it's easy to bullshit the public.
but with the Commodore. We now build the V6, the V8 was to be made here but i read Chev threw a spanner in the works and now it's not worth it with Gen4 around the corner.
the opel insperation for the commodore is just that, Stick them side by side and the cars dont have wheelbase length width height weight cabin size boot size engines tranny's suspensions in common. No matter how much the look is 20-40% there it's never going to be close. The VE GTO U.S made will have more in common with the VE Monaro then the VT had with the Omega. I don't think one car has all it's own made parts anymore. If we said 10 years ago that a commodore would have a BWM Tranny in it's car we would have been arressted for being on something
Hey my pc was made by myself i bought all the parts and put them together, They are from overseas but hey it's 100% Aussie Owned and made
