Wow, congrats to Honda for being awarded the prestigious World Car of the Year Award. I know Toyota and Honda have been battling it out pretty hard for that top "green" spot in recent months. I know things will only get better from here on out. It blows my mind to see some of the new technologies they put into these cars. Hopefully they can continue to produce quality cars without hurting the consumer wallet too much.
