Motor Trend TV

So Motor Trend TV did a piece on the auto shows. When they did the piece on LA the guy is standing in front of the RL and the blue TL Type-S. I figure cool, gonna hear some lip service on the Type-S

The guy says, yeah this RL is really cool and tells us about the OnStar System. I'm thinking this guy is just warming up.

So then what do you think he talks about next?? A Jaguar! WTF?!?! He didn't even acknowledge the fact that there was this kick a** car right behind him. Maybe he didn't like the new grill?

Oh to rub it in, they did a piece on the RSX at the Detroit show. I can't believe it!

Yeah that killed me, they nearly do the entire show from the Acura booth and gave them very little time. Acura got shafted.
