I'll just have to read window stickers more closely. Next car is probably a Focus ST, so at least I won't have to be disappointed to find out it wasn;t made in Japan.

Does it really change anything though, the only reason certain countries are viewed more favorably then other is the general quality/quality control they have in those countries (I.e: Europe/Japan good; China/Taiwan bad). That is only a general statement, I have seen many made in US or Japan things that were complete crap with little to no quality control and I have seen things made in China that far outshine their European counterparts both in quality and price. Not all US made things are good and not all China made things are crap. I would much rather buy a Mexican made car with good quality control than a Japan/Europe made car with poor quality control or.... lying about it's specs/performance *cough cough* VW * cough*
