While Chrysler took advantage of the superior technology and got the old E-class underpinnings to engineer the new 300 sedan, it was still designed and conceived as an American car. Nowadays all car companies are international. There is parts and technology sharing going on with everybody. Even the beloved Mustang has foreign parts and engineering in it. So for all intents and purposes, it is quite fair to say that Barack does indeed drive an American car.

Barack Obama is driving around in a gas guzzling GERMAN car. So much for patriotism, and so much for practicing what you preach. Chrysler is actually a German company now.

First the hydrogen Tiguan, now this! I can't wait until I'm driving a 100mpg car. --- Working with VW to spread the word about the new Tiguan.
