Wonder if they will develop a system with SHAWD and electric motors like in the NSX.
Looks pretty good, rear resembles too much of a Q7 however.

Yawn.
The new RDX is beyond boring. This is a bigger RDX.
New RLX looks so boring and uninspired.
What's it take for Acura to make good looking cars again, like the 2008 TL? Public executions?
I drive an Acura now. I'd like to show some brand loyalty to them, or Honda in general, but all they do is disappoint.

Well, the design works. I don't see why a dramatic change is necessary when the car still looks great, so IMO this is perfect.

| I also think Acura's new cars are too bland but the new RDX is selling like hotcakes, in fact its sales numbers have blown away the previous generation's numbers so they must be doing something right. |

Almost the same power figures as a '08 TL-S but only needs regular gas. Bonus is cylinder deactivation. TL-S still beats it in looks though.
I like the current gen MDX the most. This new one went nuts on LEDs.

Also the fact they downgraded the SH-AWD system to the crvs real time awd most likely kept the cost low Posted via RS Mobile |
