I wonder how much of your ( and mine ) Falcon is made in china... ?
Maybe those who say it is all cheap rubbish made on $2 per hour should look closely at the computer you are typing on, , and the tv you watch, , and the fridge and ALL other consumer electronics in your house.... Now days, 90% of it is made in China.. ( inc your IPOD )
God bless the third world for such manufacturing plants as those in China.
I have been to china, and visited a few Manufacturing plants.
One was bigger then the entire Homebush site in sydney, and it was owned by 1 guy. This place was so huge, it blew me away. This particular plant made tv's, portable dvd players, personal audio ( MP3 ) and home theare.
Off to the side of the plant, was the minature suburb that housed the employees, , very good living and housing conditions. They have everything done for them,, , the plant provided parks, pools, skate rinks, movies, shops, everything..... It was amazing... No where else in the world could anyone do such a thing but China !
We were physcially searched to make sure we had no cameras, or camera phones.
They even made the cardboard boxes that the stuff was packaged in....
Then they got sick of buying the foam for the boxes, , so they added a "foam" plant.... They even "make" the paint to colour the boxes !
WIthout China, , we would be still paying $400 for a cheap 51cm tv, , and $5000 for a plasma....

Most these devices mentioned are only manufactured in China, they are engineered and designed very specifically in "western" Countrys, so quality control is very strict, engineered in which a way that faults are very unlikely to occur, whilst fault tolerences being very low, so they are easy and simple to manufacture in 3rd world countrys.
So it really doesnt matter at all where and by whom the product is manufactured, its how the product is engineered which detirmines weather it is a quality and safe product.
The cars mentioned, they are both engineered and built in China, which is a horrible mix, especially for something as deadly as a car.
