Official 05RL info ***PG 4
We haven't had any real new information on this car in almost five months. Where is everything? I'm dying to get some performance numbers. We don't even know when the car is going on sale!

Its funny that Porsche lets major mags drive pre-production models of the new 911 (997) in Africa but Acura is hush, hush on the new RL and won't even let you sit inside the TSX or TL when they made their AutoShow debut
There's something to be said for building suspense, Acura/Honda just does'nt know how to do it.
Another example. How much have you read/seen about the new Lexus RX400h? Plenty right? How about the new Accord Hybrid. Hardly anything has been mentioned.

Since all the locations are public, you can swing by and try to get a glance of the car...just don't let the factory guys catch you.

RL= Refined Luxury...Road Luxury/Reborn Legend are not correct.
