Interesting article from 4 years ago. . . Interview with CLS designer
I'm sure a few of you have seen this. I found it in an old Acura Style issue.

Kind of a good read, but they make it sound like the car is built sparing no expense. 
The cost-effective, corner-cutting shit is pretty obvious in the vehicle, but frankly: I dig that hunk of metal, leather, and wires more than anything else on the road. Just cause it's mine, I guess.

Back to a MT!
I love my car and the article was good, but i had to laugh while reading this article, you can tell it was written by Acura. I agree with the ride height thing, i guess some translation was lost in the 1/4" scale to the full size models, I think some one forgot to convert Metric to English units! (3mm isn't equal to 3") There should be a standard in Acura/Honda that says, ride height not to exceed 1.25" to top of tire....but the goods of the car out weigh the bad....or else i would have spend 30k differently.....now time to sit back and wait for the RL/TL coupe.

It seems kind of odd that they talk about the interior as though it were a new design--wasn't the majority of the interior in the TL for a number of years already?
