All of the engines are made in Germany. Porsche ships the completed engines to Finland. So the RMS issue has nothing to do with where the car is assembled.

It is my understanding that commensurate with the 987, all manual 911 and Boxster transmission were made in Japan. Previous trans made in Germany.

Don't forget, all 1997 Boxsters we made in Germany. They did not start using Finland until the 1998 MY.
