Many foreign car makers have built plants worldwide to deal with currency rates etc.

Porsche MAY be too small to do this but VW is not.

Since they are joined at the hip .......

Of course, VW is closing its Mexico plant, which hasn't worked out, so who knows.

Thanks for that info Brucelee, that helps. For those that are interested, I found the article here:

Looks like the Cayman cannibalized the Boxster sales.
