so pretty much everything kicks acura's rear end in sales. I wonder how the designer feels about the "bold" look of the 4G after sales have been low.

C&D just gave Acura designers Dave Marek & Jon Ikeda of California a C-, the second lowest score out of 22 manufactures. Who got the D+?? Hmm, starts with a T and doesn't stop...

Leases are considered sales. As well as sold vehicles that have yet to be delivered.

Too bad it doesn't show true sales...I Bet the german cars have a high lease rate...La Crosse sales are high probably because of the price of the car.

So what if they have a high lease rate? It just goes to show that even if the vehicles are more expensive than the competitors, consumers will do what they can to acquire them. Can you not lease Acuras or something? I mean sure, the prices have gone up compared to years past, but I'm pretty sure people can still lease Acuras, especially the TL, if they REALLY wanted to.

And GM sells more Buicks in China because the population and economy there is developing rapidly, and GM just happened to take advantage of those very two facts. Where's Honda and Acura? And the Lacrosse may sell more because of the price of the car, but I'm pretty sure that's obvious for any car... but a car can't sell on price alone.

My personal opinion, but I really don't care about vehicles sales too much, since whether a model moves 10 units a month or 10,000 doesn't really matter to me.... just interesting to see what people have to say.

Don't get all butt hurt because I don't like 4G's. It's just personal preference.....

@ thinking leases shouldn't be in sale numbers. I can tell where this thread was moved from.
