Be serious, Cadillac is American as Bugatti is French. That's all. Same thing for Nissan, it's Japanese, not French, Chrysler is American, not German, Volvo Swedish, not American, etc. etc. etc.
Cadillac was founded by Henry Leland and Henry Ford....and NAMED FORD Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac...since he was dead well over a century before the car company was founded. No connection to France.

Bugatti is French or Italian, depending on which version of the company you're talking about.
