Honda Motor President Takeo Fukui posed with actress Juri Ueno, 22, and the automaker’s new Life compact car.

Ueno appears in Honda TV commercials.

The new Life compact car features large triangular windows for wider view for the driver.

It has an audio system and a backup camera for parking assistance.

The Life has The Smart Parking Assist System, which is an automatic parking function,  offered as an option.

The standard models will be released on Friday. A special mobility-assist model for handicapped users will be released on Dec 5.

The price range will be 945,000 yen($10,000)  to 1,680,000 yen ($!6,000).

Seems Honda took to heart the cry “Get a Life.”

What I want to know is why Honda prez Takeo Fukui is not posing in his bikini.
