Despite wages of about $2 an hour

hell can they beat them up a little bit and drive it down to 1 dollar per hour.

i mean 1 sounds so much better then 2

or how about .50 cents then they can have a whole rapper campaign

hey join the chicom workers party and you can be like .50 cents

In a bid to pump up sales, Toyota said Chinese-made Camrys will be priced at 197,800-269,800 yuan ($24,700-$33,700), well below analysts' expectations. Imported Camrys last year sold for 340,000 yuan ($42,500).

Camry's in the U.S. will run from about $19,000 to about $27,000 depending on model and options. If the U.S. auto workers are making 20 to 30 times what the Chinese ones are in pay and benefits then why are the cars here cheaper?

Does anybody know where Toyota came up with that goofy name (Camry)?

But, I thought China only made cheap stuff for WalMart and that WalMart was the only ones extorting chinese labor! You mean other companies take advantage of China too? Dang!

I see no one that makes these cars can afford one. It would be pretty tough to buy a $24,000 car on 2 bucks an hour.
