The exchange rate is only now 1us$=aus$.98.. if you have a look more than 6months ago it was .60aus$ something for 1 us$.... I am not a car dealer, but if both the currency are equal then honda may sell the car cheaper here.

1year ago our aus$ was same as now 1:1 and i was going to buy a BOSE stereo and the high end bose here is 7k, compare with same one in usa is 3400 us$. I asked this question to bose australia why the same system is nearly double and they told me bose australia can't reduce the price for the current exchange rate flow and if the exchage rate for aus$ always same then it may possible...

Think about Lexus IS250, its just 32k us$, compare with here 61k aus$(cheaper bargain can get around 56k aus$ driveaway)...

Now sure thats why toyota camry and aurion are very cheap can get around 25-27k may be they built here in australia and not import from overseas?

Now honda reduce prices cheaper to make sales and it who knows after June they may increase the price back...
