the only reason any Asian car companies build here is because we forced them to. the anti import sentiment got so high that by the 80s we started to threaten them with big import taxes. So they built factories here. yet japan has the 3rd largest car market in the world and it is basically closed off to outside automakers. on top of that the government in japan has subsidized the auto industry since it began in the 30s.
