It's all a global effort these days. No one car can be 100% Japanese or whatever. The designers, engineers, clay modellers, stylers, interior designers, etc are from all over the world and aim to customise the car to the target country.
Look at the Pontiac G8 and the new 2010 Camaro. They are both GM collaborative Australian and US designs. We basically get a GM V8 engine from you guys and then design and wrap a car around it that can actually handle around corners. You guys make better engines, we make better chassis. Works well.
