Coming to America – Episode 30

Is a European car built in America really a European car? That depends. Myles and Bryan discuss the early European transplants, including Pennsylvania-built BMWs, Wisconsin-built Renaults and South Carolina-built BMWs. Plus Rolls-Royces and Fiats once upon a time.

The guys also delve into the short-lived trend of European brands created specifically for the American market (Merkur, Yugo, Sterling) plus a diversion into American compacts with European roots. We’re looking at you, Chevette, Escort and Horizon.

But before they dig into cars, the talk focuses on a weekend of food that included steak frites, French cassoulet and Philly cheesesteaks. You may regret listening to this episode on an empty stomach. Bon apetit.
