Well ok, I guess thats true, no German would flat out say the Crossfire a German car, but I think in their mind they know that its a German under there. This is very similar to the Rolls Royce/BMW thing and the Lambo/VW thing. Sure, the Gallardo is not a "German" car, but thank goodness they helped! And the Phantom isn't "German" either, but BMW certainly had a positive role in the making of that car.
