Why are some Camry V6 LE made in Japan and others with same drivetrain made in Japan?
I was at a Toyota dealer the other day and noticed that two Camrys with the exact same drivetrain were made in different countries. It is easy to tell because it says so right on the window sticker. The only difference in the exterior is that the Japan made Toyotas have "pop out" squares on the bumpers for jacking points (I assume). What really intrigues me is that the dealer salesmen did not have a ready explanation for this. I figured that maybe it is due to inadequate manufacturing capacity in the US. Any other information regarding this subject would be welcome. Thanks.
