And an Escape rides better?

But you are and you didnt even take your own advice?

Bigger question, how did you get to thinking this racially motivated? Where in this article or bill made you believe this had to do with race?

Agreed with others ctrl-c and ctrl-v the most basic CUVs list on Edmunds or where ever. The only one I would pipe up for is the CX-5

But to play the other side of the coin, if that’s what sells, why stock a car that might sit? Buyers have to want to go out of their way to buy manual.

We gonna ignore the TL SH-AWD with the bigger 3.7l then?

I get that a manual would be nicer but Honda tried it in the TL SH-AWD. Guess what happened, less than 5% bought it. They are not going to cater to the enthusiasts who wont buy it new anyway, its proven its not worth it in R&D and parts cost.

Haha yeah and nice! But with Rallycross you can definitely get lost in the sea of Subarus

Sitting at 351k my 92 cb7 is still a champ, Honda cancer be damned. Used to rally cross it before the pandemic and might get back into it.

You cant sit there and tell me with a strait face Tropic Thunder could be made today. People were trying to cancel RDJ last year for it.

And thats all I am trying to say. It may not be faster than a M340i but bragging 400hp will sell cars. The TLX should be nicer than a Stinger but makes it hard to convince someone, with a $5k-10k more expensive price tag, why it has less hp.

I would agree but that was the reasoning they gave for assembly

Correct, but didnt you just described the average consumer? Are you buying one of these? Cause the average consumer will probably never touch a track in their life.

But thats my argument further down, and how many times do you see “Class leading” in the luxury world? Pull up Mercedes website and I bet you can find it used at least 5 times in a minute. Acura is not going to touch Merc or BMW or Audi or even Lexus now in level of refinement, so what do they have? Aggressive styling…

Yep its single because they had fitment and water intrusion issues when it was twins on the passenger side.

Disagree a sports sedan competing against with BMW and Mercedes needs to be in the 400ish hp range, which knowing Honda I actually suspect is the case. (2.0T accords making 260hp at the hub and 1.5t Civics 170hp at the hub)

Is the 355hp enough? Also Honda likes to under report numbers, so does it feel like more? (Though it’s a press car)

I mean at least Lordstown is trying and probably did the right thing not blocking a critical route. As that would've been a PR nightmare and everyone on here would be ripping them a new one.

Agreed with the avalanche. It was sooo cool you could take off the back. Was also built on a stout frame with the possibility of a 2500 with an 8.1l v8....

LS was initially interesting but called out for copying E39 styling and piss poor reliability. Ask an owner about replacing the fuel pump...
