Daihatsu falsified safety test since 1989

-


OSAKA (Kyodo) -- Daihatsu Motor, the small-car unit of Toyota Motor, said Monday it will keep its domestic production suspended until at least the end of January after having halted all domestic shipments due to a safety testing scandal.

Daihatsu, which has been inspected by Japan's transport ministry, said it does not know when it can resume shipments or production. The company plans to stop production at all of its factories in Japan by Tuesday.

My #RM1Challenge Trade-Up

Inspired by the red paperclip success (by Kyle MacDonald in 2005), individuals worldwide began experimenting with their own unique trades, aiming to achieve a remarkable exchange. The journey typically begins with an individual offering an item they possess, often of little monetary value, in exchange for something slightly more valuable.

Nintendo Revolution in June 2006

Gizmodo : Amazon.com France has slipped a page with the European release date and price for Nintendo's monolithic new game console, the Revolution. The release date is listed as June 15, 2006. The total, after conversion, would be about $365. European console prices tend to be a bit higher than here in the U.S., but this still sounds like a fool's ransom given the Xbox 360's $299-$399 pricetag. (Remember that Nintendo says its console will be less technologically advanced and thus cheaper than the Xbox 360 or PS3). Based on the GameCube's 2001 launch cycle, it arrived in Europe six months after it debuted in N.A. This leak gives credence to rumors that the Revolution could see a surprise 2005 launch. Either that, or Nintendo is doing some very cheeky marketing."
