What's Honda doing for 2007?
I'm wondering if anyone has heard anything about the production number of the Fit for 07 since they only limited the number to 30,000 for this year. Will it be increased or stay the same? Was the rumor about building new plants in the U.S. for new Fit models only or are they being built for the purpose of meeting current demands?

From Autoweek's interview with Honda CEO Taeko Fukui, dated December 19:
Autoweek: You once said that if the Fit sold really well in North America, you could consider building it there. Where does that stand now?
Taeko Fukui: The Fit is still a candidate for U.S. local production, but we have not made any decision on that yet. [....] we're now building the Indiana plant. Which model we produce there will be determined by business reasons.

Interesting. He mentioned in one of the questions that the Mexican plant is producing 30,000 units a year currently but is that where the Fit is being built now?
edit: hm nevermind, i think the mexican plant is for other honda's
