On Monday, April 22, Acura will launch its "The Perfect Drive" Web site, featuring descriptions, video and maps of some of America's most beautiful and challenging drives. Through partnerships including the U.S. Department of Transportation's America's Byways program, Conde Nast Traveler and Entertainment Weekly, Acura will introduce driving enthusiasts to a variety of America's best roads and to three sports coupes that thrive on them, the Acura NSX, 3.2 CL Type-S and RSX Type-S.

My vote for the perfect drive is highway 1 southwest out of Leggett in Northern California. Lots of twisties then it ends up on the coast.

Old Montauk Highway, curvy road where you can catch air, got the atlantic ocean on your right and you come into downtown Montauk, what can possibly be better than that. Well maybe a stop at John's Pancake house after the fun drive then over to Gosmans for Lunch MMMMMMMMMMM I can't wait to get back there this summer.

Yep, It's the far tip of Long Island. Spent prob half of the last 12 summers out in East Hampton and Montauk, IMO the best place in the US to be during summer, Only thing that sucks is how much everything cost, I feel for my parents.

This is exactly what we need to enter as a group so it gets to the top. It's so true - there are a ton of beautiful roads out there we can't enjoy because there's a pig hiding behind a bush with his cancer gun.
