Rates haven't changed much!  But the news today that Japan had thrown huge amounts of money into their market to debase their currency could have other countries doing the same.  Korea with its low currency is definitely winning the car wars.  I say about 6X more people at the Kia Store locally than at the Honda Store down the street!  This will eventually led to inflation on a worldwide scale.
