You mean least?
Weird, I thought Audi, MB, BMW, and Jaguar would be below Acura? I think the 04/05 TL brought Acura down?
Scion is worse than Toyota or LExus?

These rankings don't smell right. Some of the most expensive/highest qualitiy cars around are way over the industry average. Could it be that if you spend megabucks on a porsche you are more inclined to nitpick every possible fault?

Didn't Acura used to be in the top 5? Maybe the glitches with the new RL and TL increased reporting of new car problems with Acura. My CL has only had a foggy headlight and a squeaky sunroof.

meh...big deal. These are just the initial quality ratings. Give all those cars 2 years and it will be totally different.

Guys, This is the 2nd Gen CL forum... If it's not specifically about a 2001-2003 CL, it probably doesn't belong here.

Threads like this need to be started in the Car Talk or Automotive News forums:

https://acurazine.com/forums/

Feel free to re-post it in one of the above mentioned forums. You shouldn't be afraid to venture out into the other forums here.
