The aussie car export industry is booming they tell me, with the top purchasers being:
1. Saudi Arabia
2. USA
3. UAE
4. New Zealand
5. Kuwait
And they showed lots of footage of my car, in saudi, being passed by camels.

i don't know exactly what they are exporting to the US, but i am sure, that they rebadge the Commodore's as Chevy's, and convert them to left hand drive. well at least they used to. This is the car i'm sure they export to the US, but i can't seem to find it anywhere, this is the car that is highly loved by the saudi's who spent over $1 billion on them, and this is the car that i drive.  |

Hmph. Half of the "American" cars are built in foreign countries and about the same percentage of foreign cars are built in America. You just can't trust anyone.  |

I'm sure it pollutes. What, just because it is australian it pollutes? what kind of logic is that? Don't all cars pollute? oh and btw, thats the boot u are hitting, and i just had they repaired so i'd appreciate if u kept your hands off it. thank u OB&G drives... A BUICK? No i don't I drive australia's number one selling car, a holden commodore. GM purchase a set number of these each year, put new body kits on them, and re-badge them as Buicks, and sell them. Maybe Bullet will let you drive the MkV that's parked next to his MkVIa above. I would certainly like that, but then of course the fuel economy is out the sh*thole, so prehaps its not the best idea. |

No, he thought it would pollute b/c it was American...then realized that it was an Aussie car and said that he was sure it would pollute even though it wasnt American.

Just for the record, every car in existence today pollutes. And until we have perfected hydrogen fuel cell or fusion power technology, every car will pollute to some extent.
And no, American cars do not pollute more than other cars just because they are american.
