I've seen this brought up before, Toyota and Honda have American built cars, yet this took an act of congress and years of sanctions on behalf of the almighty US dollar, funny thing is, once they started building Japanese cars in the US, the Yen took a dive.

The ratio is out of proportion, I'll google Gargoylle.
