i think a badge maxes the car. i don't care if your civic has a prelude engine in it: it's still a civic.
and what makes a car an import or domestic: i associate them with the coutry of origin of the manufacturer, not where the car is fabricated.
now my question is why japanese cars are imports, european cars foreign, and the korean cars korean ? i'm not touching the domestic issue here because it's all self explanatory.
