No argument there, however I wasn't saying that Honda, Nissan or TOyota
are not real.  It is their "upscale brands" Acura, Infiniti and Lexus
that I was referring to.  There is nothing genuine about those names.
Their "brand" and "image" are all quite contrived, compared to their European
competition.
