I would prefer a American or Canadian build Mazda over a Mexican built one. My brother had a chevy cavalier built in Mexico and that was a POS

VW/Audi have plants in mexico and they do just fine. Its about quality control; the workers are going to do whats expected. From my experience as an employer, I have has quite a few mexican employees (legal ones) and they worked 100X harder than any other employee I ever had

I do not think that quality is what he was worried about - more of opening jobs up in the home front. Quality control is a huge issue, and not just in Mexican plants. Just read the reports on how American car companies do with their quality. It isn't good, and I should know - I work in an American car plant.

Some of you may have seen this already, but this article gives me hope:

Apparently the engineering staff at Mazda is still doing productive rotary development work.
