The combination of reduced inventories and a slightly down market kept us from hitting an all-time high this month, but underlying demand for our key models remains very strong. The arrival of our 2002 models this month will help us to stay on a record pace for the year. |
The doldrums of summer haven't dampened the demand for our cars and trucks. Confidence in the economy still remains strong and continues to drive consumer demand for big-ticket items. |
We are enjoying strong, consistent car sales and good growth in our light-truck segments. And we expect this trend to continue in 2006 as we enter new segments and introduce new versions of some of our most popular models. |
We have enjoyed an outstanding and valuable relationship as title sponsor of the Honda Classic. Extending our involvement for six more years not only demonstrates our commitment to the event and the new venue, but also to the involvement of the Nicklaus family and the opportunity to help support the Nicklaus Children's Health Care Foundation. |
We're really looking forward to a long-term relationship with the PGA, with PGA National and with the new board. |
We're the only ones offering a natural-gas powered car and wanted to get it into more hands to evaluate to gain more widespread acceptance. |
We've had to reevaluate our position. It's having a hard time in the market. |
While we are disappointed with the Federal District court's decision, we remain confident that the courts will ultimately sustain our position that Republic's buying binge is bad for American Honda's dealers and customers and violates American Honda's rights. |
