exactly as I stated in my first post and continue to state, they started with affordable reliable cars and gave them rediculous warranties to entice buyers. Then when people found out that they run forever and are great product for the $$ Honda started to increase the ammenties/luxuries/performance /prices of their cars and moved into the mainstream. <----What Hyundai is doing NOW!
Thank you you once again for proving my point though I appreciate the help
---And this is Honda's 1st car in the USA in
1967.....over
SIX years before the oil embargo that caused the gas hike you speak of. Again, Facts...they are littered throughout History.
Definitely not made to compete against V8's...
Not compete in that fucking sense you idiot competing as in stealing sales from big cars that were being produced through that period. Nissan was the same way they had a sport car and that was it. Rest of the stable was full of econoboxes.
