yep that's what i was wondering..i guess the ILX will be CSX's sucessor since it's also a Civic platform.

I always though the current RL is too similar in class to the TL...but if they are gonna make it actually full-sized they better put more power in it.

so back when Acura made nice cars







Give us this!

I still don't get why Acura is considered a luxury brand, hell even Hyundai beat them.

Acura needs to make a long wheel base RWD car with a big V8....

But no, let's just add some leather seats and some shiny interior bits on our Honda's, that'll make it a luxury car.

Not -_-

How about firing your design department all together and start making some innovative designs like audi and hyundai or even the infiniti..

How much more are you gonna screw up the TL and the RL while blaming on the high MPG bullshit.??
Oh, dont fucking get me starting with your shit chrome plenum grill. That is the most hidious waste of metal I have ever seen@!

Grow some balls and make a V8 or turbo/twin turbo something for sports sedan to compliment your s-awd. Whats the point of super handling when you dont got the power.

Honda and Acura are shit now. They are idiots for thinking that people that buy a luxury vehicle care about mpg. That's what the civic and accord are for. From about 1994-2002 honda was cool, I've had a few and most of my friends and family had them also back then. Now if I look at a honda or acura (minus the mdx and tsx) its just an econobox piece of shit. Hell the new civics are the shittiest ugliest pos on the road. Rmb the 99 civic sir? Those were dope. Even the base model coupes were cool. Obviosuly they have to have their fits and small "nerd" cars but they need to step up their game. I rmb the good ol days of preludes, integras, nsx, S2000. The last car I would buy right now is a honda. I'd rather have a kia forte than the new civic! Can"t believe its come to that. A kia!

Ah many of my friends and family drive luxury vehicles, and many of them care about mpg.

What do they drive. Saying they care is different than actually owning a car that actually has good mpg. Bottom line is most people that want luxury also want power - we may complain its horrible on gas etc but still going to pick the bmw mercedes infiniti because of the power. Acura has already done what they are saying they are doing in the future. Its a luxury vehicle with low power and good mpg. And they are failing - they need to open their eyes up. If they can make a car with good fuel economy and lots of power then do it. But they won't. Watch

Oh I agree with your statement. I think acura is just going to go further downhill from here. It is just that I know some people who buy luxury vehicles with mpg as one of their main priorities.

As for my friends and family? E350/550, m3s, g37s, is/es/gs lexus, etc. Though from what I remember the ones that cared the most about mpgs went with a lexus.

The biggest turning point for Acura: When they introduced that ugly grill. That was the beginning of the end.

Mugen Makes a Statement
Be careful, one look at this car and you could become addicted. Mugen quite possibly had the best car of the show. This one-of-a-kind prototype Legend MAX utilizes a Le Mans style 4.0L V-8 that puts out a ridiculous 500 horsies. Paired up with a 6-speed tranny this four door is not to be fooled with. Down to the carbon fiber air-duct on the hood this car was immaculate. Finished in a Firecracker Red and posted on 18” custom wheels you can guarantee that there was a mess of people shoving to catch a mere glimpse of it. This car got more attention in the Mugen booth than Honda’s huge display…and they had like 10 girls.
if only....
