  3. Ah, yes. Like the Fords built in Mexico by Mexican labor, as opposed to
    the Accords built in Marysville using American labor.

  5. Like Chevy being the "Heartbeat of America" and having to brand the GEO cars
    since they weren't American and now having the GEO back as Chevrolets. Like
    Ford Probes (Mazda).

    Yup. He came into rec.autos.makers.volkswagen.aircooled and posted that his
    Beetle ran on human blood. A vampire car, he called it. :)

    It's NOT. It's made by Ford and uses Ford engine controls. Yes, Ford owns a
    controlling interest in Mazda, but the Probe and 323 were largely different
    cars.

    The Probe and Escort DID use much of the unibody structure of the Mazda 323
    though.

    Automakers do this routinely, using existing structure commonly in various
    countries, with other parts specific to the application.

    Ford Probe, Mazda 626 and Mazda MX6 were all made at Flat Rock, MI in a
    plant that used to belong to Mazda. In 1992 Ford purchased a 50% stake
    in that assembly plant.

    The Probe and the MX6 are not the same car, but they are built on the
    same platform.

    The Mazda 626 was sold as the Ford Telstar in some markets.

    Yes, you are right, I was wrong. The Probe is based on the 626, not the
    323.

    The last generation Escort was based on the 323.
