Probably an import duty will be added to level the field ??  :)

Part of GM's (and the US auto industry) problem is the $1500+
built into every car they sell to cover the health benefits of
its employees [1]. All else being equal, the GM car will cost
you $1500 more. Or they'll have to remove $1500 of content
(cheaper materials, cheaper stereos, etc) to match the price
of the comparable Japanese automobile. Or figure out some
combination of cheaper content and higher price.
