Yeah. I hope big blue is available to buy in the stateside too. Honda could really use some competition and give us products worthy of it's former name and price. Not that they really have to do anything much, but start with making the HS928TCD available in the US. Next, work on the next generation of HS621. Then revamp the HS1132TAS with dual electric motors to drive the tracks. Just use trickled down technology from the high end hybrid model.
Ditto - Ditto - Ditto! Who or what is in charge at the Honda USA sales department??? If you're listening or reading - bring the good stuff to the folks south of the Canadian border. Your bottom line will appreciate it as will your stock holders!
Yamaha - your friends in the good old US of A are awaiting your entry into a very profitable and eager marketplace. As Bob Barker would say -COME ON DOWN!!!

My wife has an '07 Toyota Camry. We never get bored of it never failing to get us where we have to be. We have motorcycles for excitement. Jump on 100 h.p. and 100 ft. lbs. torque both measured at the rear wheel on a 650 lb., six cylinder Honda Valkyrie. Grab a handful of throttle if you dare, and see what happens. You'll be smoking that huge rear wheel, the engine will be howling like an Indy car and in a few short seconds 100 mph will be on the clock, And that's with a passenger! Talk about an adrenalin rush.

I had to bust your $#%*...I work for Toyota. I don't work for Toyota, but if I did, I would spike their coffee with a little something....and fire a few people. Or at least offer placement service for a paper clip company. I'd also bring back the Toyota Supra and Hi-Lux. These represent the company much better than a Celica or Tacoma. :) Now that the new VW Jetta looks and drives like Corolla, there's no need for it. I'd scrap that model and bring back the Paseo. It's okay to have cheap plastic when the car is only $10000, but for $20000? I'd restyle the Matrix so it doesn't look so fast going slow. I'd restyle the Solara so it looks less like a jelly bean. Speaking of going fast, why does Toyota has 4 models in the most ticketed car list? And I don't know why so far 3 Prius have tried to race me. It's not like my gas tank is empty and I'm trying to hypermile.
