I think the word "imported" in that OP
as well as the strange phrase :

most popular foreign Japanese* car

show that the author(s) of that piece
did a very shabby job of reporting.

Good day gang, Tay.

* By opposition one must think to any
foreign non-Japanese cars or domestic
Japanese ones or heck maybe both!?!

For the thousands of customers who continue to buy it willingly every year, the inimitable Mehran remains a relatively affordable and reliable car to put on the road. Its continued sales success means something.
