I think it looks ok but I still won't give this a buying thought unless it had more hp or a 6mt. 290 is way too low for this time and age and this level of car. Hell my 2008 type s came with only 3 hp less from the factory TEN years ago

I agree, Acura/Honda is lagging behind.

They need to bring out a RWD sportster, maybe a new s2k..... ehhh?

Man Im drooling already, I really want them to reproduce a new s2k

Man it only has 10 more hp then the 08 type S. take into consideration the extra weight and its
a slower car.
The new design is def way better and adding the exhaust tips helps a lot.

I think a lot of the manufacturers/designers have fallen asleep. Everything looks so homogenous now. I applaud Hyundai/Kia no matter how they are perceived they have come a very long way with some compelling examples/alternatives.

I do wish Acura would offer it with a 6-speed. It would definitively be welcomed.

Its a nice car but it looks a bit big like a mazda6, would of been nice if it had an option of 6spd but heck these days they don't want to produce any stick shift cars.
