Chrysler that Mittens is driving in an ad was made in Canada

(The ad that Mittens has showing him at the Detroit Auto Show, which was actually the 1964 NY World's Fair, isn't the only problem for him in that ad):

Mitt Romney's new Michigan primary ad has a simple message: that he's a native son. It opens with Romney behind the wheel of a Chrysler, waxing poetic about his love for the state. "I grew up in Michigan," he says. "It was exciting to be here."

Oh, and one other thing. The Chrysler that Romney is driving around town in his ad? It was made in Canada.

7:37 AM PT: Chrysler confirms the car Romney is driving in the ad was made in Canada.
