Do people really not know? I suppose if you didn't care...but if you were even slightly a car guy, you should at least know your domestics.

What would be more fun would be to write down the country of origin of each company. Or where the mother-company's headquarters are...

Lotus (British, don't remeber who owns them)
Maserati (Italian, part of Ferrari)
Maybach (????)
Mazda (Japanses,Partly owned by Ford)
Mercedes Benz (Owned by Dymler Crysler)
Mercury (Ford)
Mitsubishi (Mitsubishi is a japanse company that is HUGE, just not in cars. Has some tie in's with Chrysler)
Nissan (Japanese Owned partly by Renault)
Oldsmobile (GM)

Subaru (Subaru is one of the only car companies that's not in bed with any others. Japanese owned)

Most all the car makers are in cohoots with eachother, and share technologie or parts to cut down on costs.
There are no true Domestic or Foreign car companies as the have cross ownership and mergers and deals that tie them together, and a lot of companies build cars in several different countries.

Even domestics aren't domestics anymore. My Honda Civic was made in Canada! And most VWs are made in Mexico these days...

I still can't fathom Renault owning a majority share of Nissan... sigh, but then Nissan was bankrupt.
Doesn't Ford own a part of Volvo also?

Ford has dealt with almost every car company out there, the Nissan Quest and Ford Windstar were the same thing.

This is kind of a BS question since it doesn't define terms.
There are cars built by US firms in the US. Those are clearly domestics but they may have large imported content (parts).
There are "US" cars built in NAFTA countries (Canada and Mexico). They are also considered domestics.
There are cars built by foreign companies in the US. They may be domestics if they have enough US content.
There are cars built overseas by companies partially owned by US companies. These firms may be 10% or 100% US owned. Those cars are imports.
Then there are the true imports built overseas by foreign companies.

However, this leaves a few strange cases like Chrysler (excuse me, Daimler Chrysler). Is a Dodge a domestic? Is a Mercedes an import?
