It all good man, The new Eclipses will be coming out with our engines and Im thinking a lot more parts will come for the RA even though they will be sold as Eclipse parts unless the company making the parts knows better.

Ummmm are you kidding? Why the hell would a car be made/assembled in Canada? I think labor is even more expensive in Canada than it is in the USA

Huh..are YOU serious??? There's a ford truck plant in BC, a gigantic GM plant in Oshawa ont, I know theres a plant in windsor ON, there used to be a gigantic GM plant in st-therese (Quebec)...that's just a few, i know theres more then that.

I dont know what labor prices are in difference, but companies move plants for varieties of reasons; cities compete to get plants to move there and offer tax incentives, rebates and free land. Big companies crunch numbers and move to the best deal offered. Things like proximity to raw material suppliers and labor costs are all in the equation.

Look it up man!

You beat me to it *L*....car manufacturing in Canada (especially Ontario) is HUGE!!! In addition to those mentioned above, there are Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Suzuki, and even Hyundai plants I believe.
