Faster in what way??? Stock vs. Stock, I can drive a Type R faster in the 1/4 than my CLS.

But if you mean HP, then yes I agree. I can't think of another "ACURA" that has more HP than CLS/TLS right now besides the NSX.

forgot about the type-R. Besides its not like acura has a long history. Only 20 years. If I'm not mistaken, for years they only had 2 cars, Legend and Integra. They probably were still feeling out the US market. And they came along in a time when luxury (status symbols) or affordability were the biggest selling points. Trying, I repeat, trying to compete with Lexus and Infiniti in the luxury market also had to have an affect on them producing a car with any real spunk. Thank goodness the 90's came along and the sporty age as well. So to make along drawn out, way off the subject, story short, the NSX, CLS 6M, Type R , TLS/CLS, Integra GSR, TLP/CLP....so on. IMO they go in that order. Got to put the '04 TL, and TSX in there somewhere.

i believe the first Acura was around 86/87? i would say Acura is about 16/17 years old.

Yeah, that sounds right. I remember seeing my first Legend during my freshman year at JUCO. I think their motto was "precision cars". Which is why I always thought the emblem was a set of calipers and not an "A".

04 TL has 270hp

Auto NSX has what, 250 hp. SO an Auto CL/TL has more HP than an Auto NSX.

I think it's meant to be both actually.
