Talk about price bloat. I think some of the price bloat has to do with the exchange rates. In '07, you could buy over 110 yen per dollar. By the end of '11 you could only get 75 for the same dollar. Towards the end of 2012 the Bank of Japan, (their Fed Reserve) brought the punch bowl back out, causingthe exchange rate to move towards '07ish exhange rates. I think they raised the prices as a necessity of exchange rates. I think they kept the price high because they were still moving well over a thousand unit a year in north america and who doesn't like more money?
