Main > Car Makers News > Acura > Acura Tl Type-S Review I’ve always liked the style of the Acura TL and my recent road test with the 2008 model further cemented my opinion. I was also reminded of its pleasant driving experience. This car flies under the radar, attacking the road with stealth and restrained power. Those who love refined performance will be delighted.Lack of visual punchAcura is known for being a bit too conservative in terms of styling and the TL is no exception. Only the rear end of the car really caught my attention, with a subtle spoiler... Full article...

With the unveiling of a new diesel engine and the revamp of their entire sedan lineup, Acura is attempting to reinvent itself as a credible player in the premium sedan segment. But ever since Acura's birth in 1986 as the very first premium Japanese brand, the automaker has suffered from an identity crisis. Acura has always been a mixed bag, as if Honda wasn't sure what...

After making a bad first impression, the new Acura TSX wormed its way into the nearly agreeable category. Acura, Honda's upscale brand, widened and lengthened the TSX, which is loosely based on the European-market Honda Accord a different, slightly smaller car than the U.S. Accord, making it truly midsize and more comfortable, though still short on rear-seat knee room. Steering was a big minus in the loaded test car. That could be a deal-breaker for some, especially in a sports sedan where all controls... Full article...

Agent 001 asked me a similar question during the interview process, and I couldn't answer. A world without BMW, Mercedes, Audi or VW. Sure, all you Lexus fans out there are cheering the scenario, but lets face it, were it not for Mercedes and BMW, there probably wouldn't be a Lexus or Infiiniti either. Heck, we wouldn't even have Acura come to think of it.So the question is this, take the Germans off the market, and for... Full article...

Maybe somebody caught my comment last week, or maybe this is just pure coincidence. Anyhow, our pal Chris Doane snagged this lightly camo'd TL out testing earlier today. There are 6 shots in this series but our budget is pretty tight at the moment, at least until we can get another flagship sponsor on board. I picked the 2 that I think show the most of the car.SOURCE Temple of Vtec[source] Full article...

Look around everywhere and it is impossible not to notice something branded iSomething or another. Whether iPod, iPhone, iMac, iTV or iDrive, the proliferation of all things “i” is immense.Five short years ago BMW hit the market with iDrive, a new driver interface meant to do away with dashboard clutter and make the driving experience better. Car magazines as a whole were very negative towards the new technology and filled page upon page bashing the new system as a... Full article...

On the one hand, you have the motorcycle side of the company, maker of end-times miracles such as the Hayabusa and the GSX-R. These are completely and utterly fantastic bikes, virtually without peer, especially if you like going 300 mph in first gear. The company also makes scooters, ATVs and outboard motors, and I hear they are pretty good too. On the other... Full article...

Living large -- as economists came to call it in recent years -- consumers grew accustomed to piling on debt to refurbish bathrooms, add a sprawling deck, or embark on a cruise. Wants often trumped needs. The same families that stretched their finances to get into a new five-bedroom brick manse in recent years are now coming to terms with the pricey Explorer and Cadillac they aspired to own and park in the three-car garage...

The street course around downtown Long Beach, California is quite a track, with a long tradition of motorsport excitement.

One of the good-looking renderings we posted during the runup to the show was of the CE concept, a small hatchback that looked like it could just as easily be an Acura that's slumming in the entry-level class. In the metal, it looks pretty much exactly like the rendering -- a well-styled little Acura 5-door hatch. Only that's the Geely badge on that shield-shaped grille. It It is... Full article...
