Acura Enthusiast Magazine?

Hey everyone, I was wondering if there is a magazine dedicated to Acura's? I have been looking around and haven't found anything in the magazine section. I am a new owner of an 07 TL and want to start modding it, but outside of this forum I'm not sure where to start looking for ideas. Let me know, and thanks for the help.

Combine Acura and Magazine and get Acurazine. The forum is a great place to find tons of info. I mean, its not professional written or anything, but there are some great threads with alot of insight from smart people. This forum is better then any magazine would be able to manage.

Geertz, Acura actually puts out a quarterly magazine. When I bought my car, I started getting it. If you bought your TL at a dealership, you might start receiving it.

Yep, I get mine every quarter. It's not really a modding mag, but is it nice.

Magazine? Your kidding right?

Dude...many mags are finding it VERY hard to remain in business as it is with a broad scope/audience....wean it down to JUST Acura's....one would likely be doomed to failure from the start? Just a guess.

Would be a very cool idea back in the day...not sure it would even be feasible today given the internet.

Everything you need to know about the TL is right here on this forum. From mods, to technical help. No need to have a magazine also.

I actually prefer the magazine format but there's no chance of that happening.

The internet is fine but I would like to see more technical articles written by professionals. With many other brands modding is so much easier. They have tested and tried mods along with numbers to back them up. With the Acuras you want to know what suspension or brake upgrades to do and you get people saying "it corners like it's on rails" "I can take a 25mph corner at 65mph" or "it stops on a dime". None of this means squat without hard numbers. This is my preference. I can post my real world braking numbers, skidpad, or track times and people still go with their feelings over data. I think a magazine written by the pros would solve a lot of these problems.
