Acura has lost it's way

This article sums up perfectly Acura's problems. I was going to post it in the thread comparing the TL and RL, but thought it would get more attention here. While it speaks to Acura as a whole, they mention the Legend, so I thought it was on topic for the forum.

So true! I had Integras\RSX from 88 till 2006, and my mom had Legends, and at the time, they were the best cars, FOR THE MONEY, out there. I only switched to the RL because they stopped making the RSX. If Acura made an SH-AWD RSX, I could die a happy man.

We've been saying the same things here for a long time. Colliver and his band of morons were exactly the wrong people at the wrong time for Acura. Arrogance and ineptitude are a bad combination, and their decisions have crippled the brand for years to come.

The next RL is going to be make or break for Acura as a brand. Of the current model portfolio, the MDX is the only vehicle I would even remotely consider. If the next RL is a dud, Acura is dead to me. There are plenty of other good options now for AWD sedans.

I have to agree with you. I too would only consider the MDX. As you said there are plenty of other options. I might actually go domestic as I REALLY like the CTS.
