Default :( I thought I was getting a Japanese car :(

I found out recently that my '92 DX Hatch was made in Canada Are all USDM civics made in America/Canada? Since when? I thought I was getting a Japanese made car like my delSol. I guess it will do though

first digit of you VIN determines where your car was made. 1 = USA. 2 = Canada

My Civic is made in the USA, but my G2 Integra was made in Japan.
