2nd gear:

Unfortunately it was my wife’s car and she can’t (doesnt want to know how) drive stick shift. Or else I would have considered the same thing.

Don’t forget the intangible - I bought an AWD G37 and semi-regret it. Love the car, AWD “helps” because winter here in CT is crazy sometimes.

I like the part where the supercharger is bigger than the engines of some cars Ive owned.

Our TL suffered from the horrid 5 speed transmission design.  At around 65K miles, it went from shifting funny to zero forward gears in a matter of 3 miles on a highway.  Honda covered 97% of the cost to fix, so I give them credit, but its made me paranoid of any automatic transmission which is unfortunate because…

Honda/Acura have always been that way. Its one thing I actually *like* about them....there are a very finite number of combinations you can buy. It makes it a LOT easier when shopping, to compare apples to apples. It sure helps Honda too since they are cranking out a finite number of combinations, have a manifest of…

Well, I think until the new MDX comes out (2020?), the Pilot even at the 50K price is the better deal, badge or no badge.  You are still saving at least 8K (MSRP wise, anyway) and getting more room and stuff.

That could be.

Hehe. I don’t necessarily agree but I see where you’re coming from.

FWIW, I was looking at this gen Pilot when it first came out. Im assuming it still is like it was then: based on the MDX. At the time even the MDX did not have some of the features that the new Pilot could get.

I thought Phase 1 was actually “steal the underpants”

Tres Commas

But their Edge ST commercial says the Edge is a replacement for a “useless” sporty car like a 3 series.  So the Edge must be a car, right?

If only each 4 cylinder were 3.45L......

I learned to drive manual on a 1989 Beretta GT that my dad bought with 39K miles on it. At 90K miles the clutch fork broke and the shop replacing it couldnt believe how good a shape the friction disc was in. Especially considering I taught myself on that clutch.

*Infiniti

An enthusiast would know that the “Sport” package on the AWD version of the car is mostly just a looks thing.

I dropped DirecTV (satellite service).

But that looks like the same attitude Tesla used when assembling the car, so when in Rome.....
