of course i know Acura is the luxury division of Honda like Caddy is GM and Hondas have good materials and fir and finish

@Northax Yes Northax but none of those are cars. This is the point, American cars are great in America but in Europe we have been used to so much more for far longer that truly American cars come across as basic and often not well built and don't survive well over here. Some of the top American cars are only just moving into fully independent suspension, ours have had it so long they are moving onto multi point geometry, it's just different car culture.

@MaddDogg81 You do realise that Acura is a branch of Honda...

[MaddDogg81]

pfft the Acura TL back then had a 3.2 liter 260-270hp V6

[MaddDogg81]

Acura has great plastics and interior materials

Love the car, but the smug Brit dickhead needs to go through the windscreen.

@Northax the fact that you call me names says ALOT about you. thats not winning a discussion. its called Ad Hominem. using arguments against the person in a vain attempt to win a discussion

indeed, America does a lot of things extremely well. cities in the middle of the desert. it developed very fast and technologically very advanced.

but on the car department, most of them just are not as good as European cars. I live in the US so don't say I dont know.

ps not the best TV in the world.

Europeans put American car companies down and say Americans do not know how to make good cars because this is them trying to convince themselves that Europeans are supposedly better / smarter than Americans, when in reality Americans have made and still make among the best technology in the world when we want to: Jet aircraft (F-22, Boeing 787, B-2, etc.), Apple, IBM, Microsoft are all American companies; Hollywood - best movies and TV in the world. The Internet, YouTube, Facebook -> American
