But that Honda doesn't do anything for GM, Ford or Chrysler like the G8 does. And if they aren't benefiting, then they're hurting...and in turn the US will be hurting. If Honda hurts, Japan hurts...not us.
And I know all those trade treaties won't be easy to get around...but it's ludicrous, imo, to allow half of these buyers spend their rebate/deduction/whatever on a big-ticket foriegn item.
