You're splitting hairs in an attempt to be argumentative.

Porsche designed, produces, markets, sells, services, has rights to, and owns the Boxster automobile. Porsche "makes" the Boxster in the general and widely accepted sense of the word. There is no doubt in any rational mind that a Boxster is indeed a Porsche.

Workers in a factory assemble Boxsters. The Porsche company pays them to do so, under their scrutiny, by their instructions, using their parts. It doesn't matter one bit what sign says on the outside of the building, the cars are built by Porsche.

Porsche makes the Boxster. Valmet simply provides a building, some machinery, and some trained workers.

Hmm... on second thought, maybe baby's right. I've had my Boxster apart and have re-assembled it. So it's no longer a Porsche/Valmet Boxster.
It's now a JackG Boxster. Yeah, that's the ticket.
