You see a recognisable shape occasionally on British roads go, "that's a Vauxhall Astra" and then get up close and realise that it's left-hand drive and an 'Opal Astra' with a foreign number plate. Dunno why, perhaps Vauxhall means something offensive in other European languages.
I never realised you poor Americans have such wierd chocolate bars.
Our Snickers are like your Snickers. Our Mars Bars are like your Milky-Ways and our Milky-Ways are er, hmm, hard to describe. Really fluffy in the middle (and so un-dense that they float) and covered with chocolate.
What's a three musketeers when it's at home?
Basically we're much like Canada, I think (I've not had a Milky-Way in a while, so I can't remember what the filling tastes of, so it could be chocolate flavoured) I can't confirm on the Snickers since I'm intolerant to nuts and can't eat the things.

Our Cadbury chocolate in the U.S. is made by Hershey, and is not anything like the Cadbury chocolate from England.
I think Mars makes the best U.S. (inter)nationally sold chocolate. There are many fine chocolates in the world, but I prefer Lindt.
