What a load of tosh

ACURA is HONDA.....

Honda use the Acura branding to appeal more to the US market (much like Toyota and Lexus). They felt that marketing the NSX and ITR under the Honda brand would not attract the right amount of people so Acura was "created" to make it more luxurious (sp?)


As to inserting an image...

Host the required pic on wetodd (or whatever) and then.....

[img] location of image [/img ] (take the final space out between the g and the ])

And hey presto.

if you're not sure reply to someones thread with a pic in and "quote it" then you can see how it's done.

Here ends the public service announcement!! lol

It's because Americans are the only people that are willing to pay more for the same car with different "brand" on it.

I really don't enjoy being an *******.

You have no brain. Or if you do, you might as well donate it to science. Because you sure as hell have no idea how to use yours.

Ding, ding, ding, winner!

Honda takes cars they design throw an Acura name on them and sell them for alot more as an Acura then they could as a Honda.

Same thing with Toyota/Lexus, Nissan/Infiniti

The Japanese manfacturers were just following normal US automotive marketing.

Actually I don't think honda is as bad as toyota or nissan.

As far as I know the acura line is different than the honda lines. It's just not different headlight, tailights, interior, etc...

I could be wrong though.......

Arguably, the separation between Lexus and Toyota is the widest (in terms of reputation and "class"), then (because I'm a Honda fan) i'd say it's a toss up between Acura/Honda and Infiniti/Nissan. I'd have to say in honesty Infiniti typically has a leg up on the Acura name, though the new TL and RL are making things much better. But neither of them can touch the "baller" status of Lexus these days...

In Canada, we've got the Acura EL as well, which is a luxury Civic EX with a different front end, interior trim and taillights...
