Ha,ha! That guy needs to get beat down. I have a friend who interned at Ford this summer and Honda definately is not owned by Ford. You can check out the web page. www.ford.com . It list companies they're associated with. The most recent company they acquired is Land Rover

My dad works for American Honda/DOT in Marysville (safety research, so don't ask for Honda Tech Specs!) http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif so I figured he'd be the guy to ask.
The magic of Honda is that they are still their own entity, and there is no controlling interest in the company other than the company itself.
So, there were talks and speculation, but Honda is still "Honda." Thank god.

Ford does own a big chunk of Mazda - maybe he was mixed up on the name.

The paper said that Chevy had contracted with Honda to built its small displacement engines though... Funny, A Chevy with a Honda heart...

I heard awhile back that BMW, and Honda were thinking of joining forces. They planed to make to largest merge/collabortaion in history. Expecally since Honda owns almost all of Asia, and parts of the world car market, and BMW owns most of Europe, and the upper class market around the world. In some BMW magizeen they had a car that the Honda engineers, and BMW engineers made toughter. They it would be one of the most amazing cars ever. Since that article I'v heard nothing about it.
Think of the engines they could build! Honda's killer 4cly, and BMW's 6, 8, 12cly! That would be killer! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif

BMW and Honda are one of the few companies that still remains independent. That guy may have been thinking of Mazda. Mitsubishi is getting bought by another company but I can't remember by whom.
Honda has contracted with GM though. GM will be purchasing the LEV 3.0 VTEC V6 from Honda and Honda will be buying small block V8s for their upcoming truck.
