Probably not, most US car makers have their parts made overseas.B  And long
distance drop shipping from Guala Lampor ain't cheap.

"BMW is about to start selling original parts and accessories direct via
online retailer eBay UK, claiming that it's the first car maker to do so.
Previously, owners had to order parts from dealerships but now, with the
launch of BMW Direct, they can buy from the car maker, thereby cutting out
the middleman, which means prices should be considerably cheaper. Postage
and packaging is free. Other manufacturers are expected to follow BMW's
example." B (From The Telegraph of London)
