Where was my Smart made?

Are the Smarts being made in France and Germany? The Cargo Status notification on my Smart shows that the port of origin was BREMERHAVEN, GERMANY. and arrived in Baltimore on 12-31-2007 at 9:00am. Does this mean my Smart was manufactured in Germany?

I knew that didn't look right but didn't know the correct spelling.
Thanks, Fish, as I do like to be accurate in such ways.
