Maybe if we stuck to a more modular method of production also, some good examples of this are;
1992-1995 Honda civics and 1994-2001 Acura Integras which are basically the same car
Ford Escort , Mazda Protege and 323 from 1990-?
Neons and PT Cruisers

Automakers need to focus on simple. Honda has only recently started to have "options" on their Honda Civics, and even at that you just pick Trim levels for the most part.

For me I have a problem with imported cars, I mean cars that are produced in countries because of their cheap labour. Imagine how much eco driving you have to do to compensate for the trip your Hyundai took on the ship over.

I like my 14 year old CANADIAN built Honda Civic, and it seems like many people like their CANADIAN built Metros, and Flys
