Japan taxes US imports at the rate of 108%, imagine how many more Chevy's, Ford's and Dodge's would sell if a camry cost 50K.

Maybe this is why the RS V6 Camaro is on restraint because they are sending them all over to Japan!

In Japan it's required to have side blinkers of some kind. I had a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee over there and I had to have them installed before I could register the vehicle.

Maybe because the U.S. has a far better production rate then any other country. In other words, we can produce things in large amounts very fast! Like in WWI and WWII

Great to see ....now if only they would reduce their tariffs so that we had a level playing field to compete....if U.S and Canada had the same duties on imports as Japan and Korea you wouldn,t see a tenth of the hondas, toyotas and hyundis on the road.
The North American auto industry can compete on quality but not against the trade barriers of the Asian countries.
