Wrong ,for the record there is no such thing as an Acura in Europe .The NSX and RL are sold there as the HONDA NSX and HONDA Legend .Acura is strictly a North American nameplate .It does not exist in Japan or virtually anywhere else in the world .

I wish Acura would just give me a coupe with 300+ hp.
It's not asking for much, if it's still a V6 and FWD, that's fine.

i'm so glad you said that CLpower cause i'm sure out of your 6000+ post you have some classic right. Tell if your posts are so good then start your own up and then i call laugh at them. Otherwise you can just sit there with your hands down your pants cause you obviously have nothing better to type about. By the way i'll continue to write up these "terrible" post and by the end of this year hopefully i'll have every spot on the top 10 worst threads on this website

Correct, Acura is only sold here. Overseas, their Accord (our TSX) gets average, better than reviews, they LOVE the NSX and the Legend (our RL) they diss it so bad, it ain't even funny. One review said buy a Camry or Maxima instead (and they HATE those 2 cars).
Lexus will be badged as so in Japan starting in 2005 to further seperate themselves as a premier brand. THey have been sold in Europe for some time now. There are Lexus dealers in Guam and the middle East as well.
Infiniti is also a USA only brand, though there is talk of bringing it to Europe in 3 years.

And maybe not just Acura take a freaking hint, but owners as well. Stop comparing and wishing and jump ship.

I know if I want a V-8 sports sedan with a manual, I will jump to BMW instead of acting the monkey wishing Lexus would make one. That is what competition is for.

I agree Acura do need to step it up. I constantly dream about how I felt the first time I rode in an Acura Legend in my first year of jr high school.

But every car company get bash by other forums.
I can't believe how bad the mb forum talk about lexus and bmw.

Try telling GM that crap...You can use it on cheap cars but you either have to MASK THE HELL OUTTA IT on luxury cars (CLK based on the C-class for example)or people WILL notice.

IF america wasn't so SNOBBISH they wouldn't need a "Acura" brand....


The Accord is WAY to close to our cars, it basically is our car...


In japan people purchase luxury hondas with no problems...

Actually, I'm pretty sure Acura is sold in Singapore or Hong kong, or somewhere in that area of the world. Also I just recently read that either one of the Jp lux plates will be offered in Japan, was it Lexus or Acura? it was surprising. I'll try to find where I read that.
Not sure about the huff on this topic. It's frustrating because Honda/Acura does so many things so well. I'm sure it's not easy building a successful (sales) car.
I'm not sure anymore why I've always been attracted to Hondas and then Acuras. Nothing else was as interesting to me before without going over $35k and settling for more unreliability.
I only hope that Acura gets success with their 4 doors and SUVs that I don't want so they will build me a fantastic 6 cyl/FWD coupe again!

mb WORLD has gotten better but they will always have some small minded idiots. A lot are just spoiled kids. A lot are plain ol bigots. Some are cool and open-minded and a Benz was their decision and that is totally cool

Good link, I'm over there arguing now....:P
