That I will agree on, that's what burned me the most when I saw the first two movies, but that's movies.
The third one kinda had a different approach by combining both tuner and American with the mustang, and although I was disgusted at first, i realized metaphorically, it meant that they wanted to combine both sides of the hobby.
As you can see by the forth one, American and import was about 50/50 in what was shown. The three most known imports in that movies was the Skyline,the Subaru,and at the end the NSX but the four main American cars were the Buick GN/X, Chevelle,Dodge Charger, and then the Burt Reynold edition Firebird ( that's not even including the Camaro the kid had). I think the producers want to appeal to now both hobbies, although they've dug a pretty big hole with eh Domestic scene, but love it or hate it, it's a car movie, it's to me a big reason why this hobby is still doing well.
