I know nissan reduced some nissan plants employees in japan because of the plants in mississippi.
But I do know for a fact that the Z is produced and assembled in Japan.

Check your VIN. The manufacturing plant is part of your VIN.

U.S. Nissan Factorys and what they produce:
Smyrna TN: 07 Altima, 07 Maxima, 07 Xterra, 07 Frontier, 07 Pathfinder

Canton MS: 07 Altima, 07 Titan, 07 Infintiti QX56, 07 Quest, 07 Pathfinder (Armada)

Decherd TN (Enigine Plant): The current 4cyl in the Altima, the VQ3.5 for the Altima, Maxima, and the Quest), and the VK45 for the trucks

Nashville TN (Nissan North America Headquaters):Marketing, Sales, HR, Design, and a bunch of other stuff....looks like the real estate and the wages got a little to steep in Cali (Go Dirty South)

The initial Z's were made in Oppama, from Jan 2004 on they have been produced in Tochigi, both cities being in Japan.

In today's global economy, parts are obtained from all over the world so chances are there are some made in the US.

hey since I work in the Bond and Stock Market i figure you guys would find this interesting:

French car maker Renault SA and its Japanese sister company Nissan Motor Co. are likely to try and initiate talks with Ford Motor Co. after General Motors Corp backed away from a three-way alliance, industry observers said Wednesday. "It's relatively predictable that they'll start talking to Ford now," said Credit Suisse automotive analyst Harald Hendrikse, adding that the decision to break off the studies into potential synergies "is bad news for everyone on a long-term basis, as there was enormous scope for synergies" among the three companies. But the breakdown of the talks with GM isn't likely to put Ghosn off his search for a North American manufacturer to join the Renault-Nissan alliance. Ghosn has made no secret of his desire to forge an alliance with an American partner, which he thinks would create value for the alliance. Last February, he said the seven-year-old Renault-Nissan alliance is open to new partners, and preferably an American one, suggesting that the Franco-Japanese partnership rooted in Europe and Asia was missing a strong foothold in North America, the world's largest and most profitable market.
