Satellite view of Honda's Suzuka factory, where HCHII is manufactured
Just in case you were curious, here's a satellite view of Honda's Suzuka factory, where our HCHIIs are produced. The place looks huge, over 1km long.

Is this the only place that the HCHII's are made? My parents like mine so much that they are thinking about getting one but my dad is a teamster and they "have" to buy cars built in North America. Is he out of luck?

Hey, I think I see my car down there.
See it in the front parking lot?

Depends on how "American" the car has to be... I vaguely recall hearing (and it might be bad memory or total fiction) that roughly 70% of an HCHii actually comes from America/Canada (aren't they the 51st state yet?) anyways, with only the IMA and final assembly taking place in Japan.

My sticker on the window said 70% domestic parts content.

There you go...70% made in America...that should be pretty good for any Teamster. I can't imagine the formerly Big 3 can top that percentage.
