Amazing how good a proper GT car can make its commercial counterpart look. There really is truth to 'race on Sunday, sell on Monday' adage.

This only begs the question, when is a Type-S in the works for this car???

Great post

Begs the question why Acura isn't using Type-S and SH-AWD to their advantage. Seems like great selling points that they'd want to exploit.

Acura needs to wake their line of cars up a little. They can do great things at Honda, but they remain so conservative
