Honda’s Profit drops 86%

Tag: Auto Manufacturers, Honda / AcuraRobert Lamb @ 10:59 am

  Part of the drop is a provision they made for a possible tax settlement - they appear to be avoiding taxes on income from China!  

Where there is smoke there is fire - how much would you bet that they are probably avoiding taxes in Canada too!  All related to higher prices charged in Canada versus the U.S. for the same product.  (transfer pricing/costs) Wake-up Revenue Canada!

Check this post out we just received below.  We are also hearing many stories of Canadian dealers selling U.S. Market Audi’s and BMW and MB, that the RIV would consider inadmissible!

Yes! These are the same cars that you and I either can’t bring in to the country or are forced to spend thousands of dollars to modify  bumpers… etc..

Prices Plummet! and Reader floored by Honda price Gaps!

Tag: Auto Manufacturers, Consumers, Honda / AcuraRobert Lamb @ 1:28 pm

 Here are two good stories today on Car prices. 

One from the Hamiltom Spectator, re: Honda prices, titled ” Reader floored by Price Gaps on Honda Vehilcles! ”

We fail to understand the spin that the Honda Public affairs person put on the gap! 

  • “they are not the same apples to apples Vehicle” !

The American one comes with TPMS and a 2 Litre windshield washer reservoir.  The Canadian has a 4 litre windshield washer reservoir and indicator light!

Shame on You Honda!    The media should just ask these “spindoctors” to describe in detail  the true differences!   Honda will never answer this question!     Maybe one of our members will track them down and ask the question.

And another in  the National Post Titled “Values Plummet”

2008-03-28nationalpost.pdf

Both articles fail to mention or interview dealers or people in the U.S. to find out:   Prices are going down there too!!
