As U.S. consumer demand shifts to more compact and fuel-efficient modelsand as Honda sees a boost in demand for its Fit subcompact, theJ apaneseautomaker is considering bringing more of its small Japanese models tothe U.S.
Sales of the 30mpg Fit jumped 73 percent last month as gasoline pricestop $4 a gallon. That contributed heavily to Honda being the onlyautomaker to report a gain in U.S. sales this year. Honda is studying the possibility of bringing the Stream wagon - a Japanese version of the Odyssey minivan.


According to Dan Bonawits, Honda’s U.S. vice president for corporateplanning, Honda won’t be rushing any Japanese models to the U.S. untilit is certain that current U.S. patterns will continue.
“We’ve got a fairly long-term product plan laid out and we’re going to try to stick with that,” Bonawitz said.

In this topic regarding JDM cars, in fact taht I don't think it's Canada's fault, it is because the demand of the people here isn't that strong...they may think..."this car works...that's fine then"....which is ---->
Poor for the car market...
