Anyone that Googles "Wixom, MI" can find out more about that city than most care to know.  Here's the first paragraph from Wikipedia about Wixom ----

"Wixom is a city in Oakland County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 13,263 at the 2000 census. The city was home to the former Wixom Assembly Plant, which produced the Lincoln LS, the Ford Thunderbird, the Ford GT, and the Lincoln Town Car. The plant closed its doors on May 31, 2007."

Apparently there were/are several manufacturers located there.

GM had/has a plant there too - not sure if it is still operating.
Quite a bit smaller (100,000 sq ft) than the Lincoln facility; they hand build Corvette ZR-1/ZO6 and Cadillac XLR-V & STS-V engines.

A Cadillac shoe horn?  Is that so you can get into the newer cars?
