While looking at Honda's Japanese site via Google's translation, I found the above option for the Inspire...the 'suicide seat'. The intro says "Comfortably, cleanly and safely". Is there a safe way do that? :lmao:

(Sorry, the link takes you back to their home page. To see what I'm talking about, click on "You look at the car", then "Inspiring", then the link at the end of the list called "Welfare vehicle")

I believe it is a special mod vehicle for those in wheelchairs, easier access.

I just love how Google translated it...I wonder what word came up as suicide? Too funny. Well to me anyway.

yeah, don't you love translations? someone on another forum said that one of their offices in the DR had software that was translated into spanish (the menus). One of the options was to report bugs. The word they used for bug was "bicho", which is a slang term in PR and DR for "penis". One can only imagine how much they laughed at it. :D

I was picturing the salesman trying to pitch this to customers based on the translation. "Here's a little item you may be interested in...but don't use it until your loan is paid off!"
