Wow way to dance around your stereotyping and racist comments. They do have a strange culture, they are different. No ones asking you to take part in their culture, just to accept them as human beings and that not all of them are some sort of evil because they are different.

OF COURSE THERE WAS NO STUCK ACCELERATOR!!

The accelerators don't stick!! The PCM holds the throttle plate at wide open throttle even after the pedal is released.

And once again, you are WRONG. The PCM gets reflashed. Straight from Toyotas website:

"In addition, as a separate measure independent of the vehicle-based remedy, Toyota will install a brake override system onto the involved Camry, Avalon, and Lexus ES 350, IS 350 and IS 250 models as an extra measure of confidence. This system cuts engine power in case of simultaneous application of both the accelerator and brake pedals"

Thats part of the reflash. What they don't tell you is that they also flash the rest of the computer and implemented other changes.
OHHHHH I SEE You must work for them and you KNOW thats in the reflash because..... well wait... YOU HAVE NOTHING AT ALL THAT SAYS THIS IS TRUE BECAUSE IT IS NOT! They flashed the PCM for a brake override. You are ASSUMING they are changing something else when its ALREADY PROVEN not to be a PCM problem. Way to make the facts fit your STORY.

Thats only in the new models of the TL and GS. Previous models (2008 and earlier) still had single piston cast iron calipers with 11" rotors. Garbage on a $40,000 car.

Honda only recently started using dual piston calipers up front because with the increased weight of their newer cars, the single piston systems were pathetic, even by Hondas lax standards. American cars have had aluminum and/or dual piston calipers standard on many models for over 10 years.
I give up on this as well as arguing with you. You are an obvious racist towards the Japanese many of which I count as my friends. As well you seem to like to make up "facts" to support your story when you have not one iota of proof.

I'm sure theres some nice anti-japanese boards for you for the rest of the people stuck in world war II.

I give up on this one.
