acura needs something to fill the gap between the rsx and nsx. I would love to see them incorporate the current NSX's 3.2 litre dohc motor with a new coupe. 300 plus horses, all wheel drive, 0-60 in 5.0 - 5.5 quater mile in 13.2-13.5. Would be an awesome gap filler.

 

Jim’s post doesn’t warrant a reply. I’ll just bookmark this thread and then give it a bump after the press release.
His info is just as accurate as others claim they get from the dealers.

 

Acura can pull it off. They shocked the world with the Legend. They only need to do one thing.



Bring back the Legend Coupe!

 

You mean he's not?

 

My advisor here has mentioned the same things.... but got to see it in production before I can blelieve it

 

I stapled a 1,000 dollar check to a color printout of that photochopped RL that’s been floating around here and sent it to Acura.
So whenever they build it, I’m first in line……………

 

good luck waiting!! your current CL will be in the JUNK YARD long before anything like that photochopped RL ever shows up!!!

 

HAHAHAHA, shocked the world??? give me a break. it was a nice car but come on, shocked the world...hardly. the legend coupe "shocked the world" no more than the 350Z did

 

my photoshop RL!?

(the coupe)

 

Baby MDX?
Found!

 

They will come out with a coupe again. THink about it. G35c and 350Z just came out and both of those companies didnt have shit before that. Give them time, there is a demand for the coupe still.

 

Sir, I notice you get quite worked up about things like this...why? And if you hate them so much, why do you bother reading...?

Relax...! If and when Honda makes a coupe, then we'll pass judgment, yes? Why all this rage about people speculating? What's the harm in it?

 

what about an accord coupe, id take that over a Tsx

 

Hey, we all know Santa Clause is just a movie character played by Tim Allen.

Santa Claus is real though.

 

123456SPEED is dead right.

 

 

since when santa claus joined ACURA Family??


a Mini MDX? MDX is not big at all and how they gonna make a smaller one? ACURA Xb? haha

 

EASY.......Put Leather seats, NAVI and a V6 in the CRV.

 

The 'mini MDX' was announced a while ago.

Acura is going to release an Acura-ized version of the CR-V in MY2007. This is not new news. I recall this from last summer when I was looking for cars in the mini-SUV class. This class is missing a luxury or pseudo-luxury model.

I'm guessing no V6, but just the leather seats, navi, and other interior adornments.

Full time AWD and a V6 will really make this model competitive, we can hope and ...but with Honda's current implementation of AWD (on the CR-V - not a well respected system) and an underpowered I4 putting out HP/TQ in the mid 100s, then ho hum.

 

There is only one reasonably priced Acura 2 door....the RSX....

 

*cough*nsx*cough*

 

80K+ isn't reasonable....

 

i honestly think acura should start to separate the line between Honda/Acura. There should NOT be any car less than 35k in Acura line.

 

why..... BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Lexus, infinity don't do the same Honestly, some of you people on this board drive entry level lux cars and act like you drive Bentelys

 

haha

 

The CLS has transmission problems???

 

If I had a nickel for every time someone misspelled INFINITI....

 

Zapata owes you a dime, cuz he misspelled Bentley too.

 

AOAO is one smart dude!

 

______________
haha.

Yah zapata honestly tho. There is nothing to do with WHAT I DRIVE. ( ARE YOU ON UR PERIOD OR SOME SHIT?)
I said the SAME THING when i had my CLS. Acura is supposed to be the upper level of HONDA just like lexus, infiniti .. I DIDNT SAY ANYTHING about bmw and benz.
i think right now Acura/Honda is all mixed up and that is going to bring down the image of ACURA...
What is the point of Acura when Price, quality, looks, CUSTOMER SERVICE are all the same shit as Honda?

 

how about

 

For what you are getting, it's a bargain!!!

 

Yeah, and some are wannabees, who don't even have the entry level lux car!

 

Its a little hard to believe acura will be coming out with a new coupe soon considering they canceled the car. If one was on the horizon they would have let the cls ride it out. Will probably be last on the list now- new suv, new rsx, maybe some hybrids to match lexus, awd models, then a cl coupe.

 

I'd imagine the new couple would be at least 3 years away -- unless they're on top of the AWD thing.

They better not put out another FWD coupe just so every magazine can say, "It's a lot of car for the money--but it's front wheel drive, so the dated 180HP 325Ci beats it."

 

Well, the 350Z and G35 are selling well, more than anything, the cars are LOOKERS, no matter if u like em or not. Coupes gotta stand out, especially with sedans just as fast or faster. Lexus will have the IS coupe out next year and looking at the concept LF-C, it will be love or hate but dynamic.

Acura just needs to put some balls in the styling, an Acura coupe will sell.

 

Oh and a Acura badged CR-V is an embarresment to being called a luxury anything. That is pathetic. WOrse than the SAAB 9-7x which is a freaking Trailblazer.

 

The CR-V is good little car. To make a higher quality version under acura would sell like hotcakes the way people (specially women) are buying little sport utes.

 

It' won't be a rebadged CRV.....mini MDX based off of the accord platform.

 

Hey cool another thread of unsubstantiated rumors given to customers by sales personnel.

Yes, there are plans for a smaller Acura SUV. Yes the next NSX comes out next year. Yes, there will be a hybrid RL, likely for MY06. The TL should offer AWD in MY06 as well, and then hybrid power in MY07 (each one year behind the RL offering those features).

There is NO talk about a new coupe of any sort for Acura right now. Sorry.
