not a bad 0-60 given the launch seems pretty soft. No brake torquing. I think the mag reviews will brake torque the hell out of that AWD car and get a faster launch and a quicker time. They usually are a lot harder on the cars than most owners would be.

Every single time I look for a new car I always tell the sales people NOT to show me the features, tell me about the car, or try and sell me on the car. I do my own research and will explore the car on my own!! I can't stand listening to people trying to "sell" me on a car by giving me false useless info, like this video guy said about the 9 speed dual clutch, LOL! I can't count the number of times sales people have lied to me like that thinking I wouldn't know the difference, little do they know how much research I've done on my own.

Is the 9 spd a dual clutch transmission also? Didn't know that the outside mirrors are auto dimming.

Ron, what you need to do is post some videos.

Three Wheelin'
- Talk button, wait, say Street
- Talk button, wait, say letter
- Talk button, wait, say next letter, etc.
It's like pulling teeth, but worse. Faster to pull over and use the keypad for entry or use AcuraLink from home before starting out.
This is poor, and I want a hack or an upgrade from Acura.
Can some US owner try to voice enter this command and report the results. After saying "Address", follow up by saying "1 King Street Toronto Ontario".

Advanced
Believe me...I find the methods of input so onerous, I'm just going to keep using WAZE on my mobile device.

This video should come with disclaimer that it is only for US models. In Canada after saying "Address" you are taken directly to a screen with for Province, City, Street, and Number. With each of these it is one letter entry at a time, e.g.,
- Talk button, wait, say Street
- Talk button, wait, say letter
- Talk button, wait, say next letter, etc.

BTW, what brand has got this done right please? Please pardon my ignorance, I just do not know. When I test drove the Mercedes E Class recently, their voice command input was just as screwed up... LOL! I wonder how the Lexus, BMW, Audi and Infiniti systems do?

Why is the grass always greener elsewhere?
- clear front corners make the front look more premium (and more like the prototype)
- clear rear corners give the rear some much needed detail/contrast
- 18" wheels here look more premium than our 17's and 18's (but not our optional 19's)
I can understand the clear lenses not being DOT approved here, but why can't we have those 18's, at least as on option?

The front lenses look the same as the US to me, what am I missing?

Can't remember the last time I saw a car in the US with clear rear corners...if it isn't illegal here, then maybe the red rear corners are illegal elsewhere (hence the Chinese and Russian MDX/RDX get amber rear corners). The Chinese ZDX in particular had clear rear corners that were especially nice...

Funny how I was upset with the Russian wheels and now, I feel they look better than what we have in NA.
