Toyota’s wholly-owned financial subsidiary is asking for about Y200 billion ($A3.17 billion), according to Japanese media. The carmaker has said it is seeking aid but declined to confirm the amount.

TOLD YOU I WAS RIGHT ……..Toyota the carmaker IS seeking aid…..

No doubt this current financial situation is hurting all manufacturers, so it comes at no surprise that some help may be sought by Toyota’s financing arm. However there’s also no doubt that toyota is doing a lot better than gm and chrysler, A LOT better.

“Hope you don’t end up polluting this website with mindless anti-toyota rubbish like boganville missile, and rest of her muppet crew do!!”

LOL! I just burst out laughing!!! Good one!

“So if JICA can provide funds at a cheap rate, Toyota will actually be able to offer cheap finance for their cars and in so doing INCREASE sales.” Franzz

It will help them sell, no doubt about, they have to sell fist though, and that’s not all that easy right now.

TBH, I believe Chrysler and GM are selling interest free at the moment, courtesy of their “GIVE US MORE MONEY” date in Washington.

The real problem here is free trade and market forces are being thrown out the window. Chrysler and GM are getting taxpayer money, so they can sell cars interest free, not to mention the discounting on RRP. Now hey, there is some good buying out there, and that’s great for the consumer,($29995 drive away Omega)but by all rights, GM & Chrysler should now be dead, the remaining companies shouldn’t have to be competing against them, and their discounting, interest free sales, federal/taxpayer funding. On a global level, its just making the situation worse.

Gee, do you think the meltdown in car sales could be the reason? Toyota is going to lose probably around 2 million unit sales this year, if not more. You think they should maintain full production levels and grow that loss bigger?

They are the biggest producer, they will probably hurt the most. Really, Japan is in recession, surely not! And the US, Europe and now Australia!

Here’s a thought, Toyota is in good shape, well, compared to GM, Chrysler, Ford, Fiat…

By the end of this year, the Jap Companies will be hurting, we have seen nothing yet.
