Profile of the designer

If you guys are so great, why don't you guys go through the necessary training to be a designer for the car companies?

A little off-topic, but that bio on the chick who designed it pisses me off... makes you think "Hey I can go to that school and get a job like that too!" but read between the lines (or more iomportantly the last sentence) and you realize her hubby put in a good word and greased the rails for that hiring, no doubt about it... I hate how the world is so effing biased but takes such great strides trying to appear not to be. Everyone talks like they're self-made.

they need to put a v8 or a v10 into that design then maybe, just maybe, it will capture some buyers.
Right now it looks like a raised sports coupe that is pretty slow since it's running on a v6 300hp.

If the new TL and the MDX had a baby, this would be it. That video was crap "we got to start with a clean sheet of paper" baloney, its like an exact midpoint between the TL/MDX

Lots of hate...looks like the X6..if not better...

This car cost little to make...giving Canadian some much needed work because it's built here.

okay i admitt it too.. i'm down to drive it..

but I find it depressing to know that this heavy vehical (assuming it's heavy due to it's size and the leather interior) is powered by a v6 300hp that is quite outdated. So is it suppose to go fast, or does it only look fast?

again.. i think putting a v8 or a v10 in that would be awesome

None of current Acura platforms can support anything larger than a V6 due to the latitude engine layout.
