There was one on earlier that showed the Camaro. I't looked like an SUV to me the way they pieced that thing together.

So far Lambo Murci factory FTW, but no surprise there.

Engine's do break sometime

I was a little underwhelmed, but not because of the factory. The show itself is a little boring, I wish they interviewed some more people!

I was impressed by the robotics and the automatic tram/transport systems. Highly efficient.

I also wish they would have showed that smurf blue GT3 ripping around a track at the end.

Also, I thought the Boxster was assembled in Finland.

The Boxster WAS manufactured in Finland, but they moved Cayman/Boxster production back to Zuffenhausen. It was an awesome show...
