some were built at the Hermosillo plant

3 at the start on the VIN also indicate a mexican-built one ( my Versa was born under the Mexican sun and has a 3 as first digit too )

Doesn’t matter where this is filmed. Manufacturers import cars from all over the globe. The VIN tells you where it was built. Ford imported Mexican built Escorts and also built them here. Happens a lot.

Quote Assembly
Wayne, Michigan, United States (⧉)
Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico (⧉)

I see now, but maybe next time, maybe you should put information as the proof of it, that could be understandable for me honestly, just some advice.

The VIN proves it. I was busy and didn’t have time to post the data.
