HONDA ACCORD MAY GO AMERICAN

The Honda Accord, the first Japanese model to become the best-selling car in America, may soon set another precedent by becoming the first Japanese car to be officially designated an American model by the U.S. government.

Honda officials said the 1991 Accords built in the company's Marysville, Ohio, assembly plant starting next fall should have more than 75 percent American content - which would qualify Accord as an "American" car under standards established by the Environmental Protection Agency. - Los Angeles Times
