All I know is I have a Yamaha and two Hondas. The Yamaha is paid for, fun to ride, tears up the jumps, hills and trails. Anyone that says it's a piece crap must be making payments on something better. I do like my Hondas their fun too.

 

honda makes acura!! ive never heard that toyota makes yamaha. yamaha dosnt make a car so when honda and acura make cars that is going to be way more sales than yamaha. toyota doesnt make yamaha!!

 

"ive never heard that toyota makes yamaha." "toyota doesnt make yamaha!!"
If you read my post more carefully I said that Toyota OWNS Yamaha, not makes Yamaha! Yamaha doesn't make a car that you know of in America, you can't say that a company doesn't make something worldwide just because it's not sold in your market. I do not see a car on the Japanese website, or the Japanese Yamaha Motor site, but they have a huge range of various products.

"yamaha dosnt make a car so
when honda and acura make cars that is going to be way more sales than yamaha."

If Toyota owns Yamaha and Daihatsu, that would more than match Honda because it is a single company. Besides, I'm talking about company size, diversification, not sales. A pencil company with 120 employees could sale 50 trillion pencils, but it would still be a smaller company than a hugh ship building firm that produces about 100 or less oil tankers a year. Why? More employees and operations, more capital and investments, and ect. That's like saying Honda doesn't make a piano so "that is going to be way more sales than Honda."

"honda makes acura!!" Toyota produces its automobiles under the Lexus name. Just like Honda's Acura and Nissan's Infinity.

Again, I never said that Toyota makes Yamaha. But
what about your Honda SUV in the U.S.? What is it called? A Passport, but GASP! It's made by Isuzu!
Oh no.......!

 

I just happened to look at Yamaha Canada's web site and it just happen's that their was an announcement from Toyota & Yamaha announcing share purchaces in each company.www.yamaha-motor.ca, look under what's new.

 

Don,t forget, Yamaha also makes the SHO engines that Ford puts in Taurus, T-birds and Mustangs.
