Yes, Andy, Subaru isn't essentially an American car, but most are and have been made here for the American market in factories here. And the Forester, as I recall, was developed exclusively for the American market. Interestingly, here in the Seattle area, I am seeing more and more Kei cars here in the area. So there are those of us who want extra small, rather than super size. There seems to be two schools. Those who drive Kei cars and Smart cars, and those who consider the "new" Mini a true small car. The latter being as big as a land crab.
