One word: disappointed

Just got a set of these in the mail...
So the 50th Anniversary Camaro Emblems are made in China. There's a bit of me that's disappointed in that... I'll leave this here... |
Thank the policies of this nation's government ,both sides included, that nothing much is made here anymore. Also for the fact the national pride is practically nonexistent anymore. Just look at all the asshats destroying the flag and being all proud about it by posting it to the web.

Well don't remove or open your paddle shifter
Well don't open or remove your paddle shifter. Surprise it's made in China.
|
well it would of cost you 5x the amount if it was made in america.
|
U expected some other country?
|
At least they spelled Fifty correctly and the "Y" hasn't fallen off yet....So I wouldn't be too disapoonted...

The 2015 Chevrolet Camaro sports the most North American content of any modern two-door muscle car, with 65 percent of its content sourced from the U.S. or Canada. As with previous generations of the Camaro (and Firebird), the current car is built in Canada. Engines come from the U.S. or Mexico, and transmissions are sourced from the U.S., Mexico, or Japan.
Nothing on the 2016 yet. Source --- motortrend.com |
Made in China , yep .....that's how business make huge profit, they have their parts mass produced in China for peanuts and slap them in everything made in USA or Canada lol
|
I can understand some disappointment but most of what we come in contact with on a daily basis is made in China. Stinks but you can thank politicians for that.

It's a sad fact but having just returned from Detroit and the Woodward Dream Cruise I will tell you I feel for the city and its people. Right after WWII Detroit began to decline. A city that was once inhabited by 2 million has dwindled to several hundred thousand now. In addition to the plant tour in Lansing and obviously the events around Camaro Fifty and Woodward Ave we took a drive to a few places most never visited. It's not hard to find signs of urban decay whether you're downtown in Detroit or in the now vacant neighborhoods surrounding the city. We went to see Central Station where the trolleys and trains came from. Many who parked at Joe Louis Arena most likely saw the Memorial Bridge in the background. The same owner of the bridge owns Central Station. Recently new windows were added to the station which is now abandoned. It's a fabulous building and the architecture is really cool. It tells a story of what Detroit once was.
We also strayed off of Woodward up near Detroit and running along a few of the side streets which are now a wasteland. It's a pathetic site as homes which were once grand and adorned with classic architecture are slowly consumed by the land. Many were collapsing and burnt out. The ghetto is stark contrast to the shine of all the cars on Woodward which were born out of this once thriving metropolis. Sadly many industries did not survive. The drive to manufacture products off shore has led to the destruction of a great city. When jobs disappeared so did the people. Detroit in many areas is turning into a post apocalyptic wasteland. We had a great trip but I return home deeply saddened for the city. As much as it was a good vacation I'm glad I saw what has happened there. Your badge came with a price. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bx7tF1Ov8Vs |

Fear keeps you alive. Too bad we weren't afraid enough of ourselves to stop this from happening. |
Guess where the Mustangs manual transmissions have been made for over seven years...
