Deciding to have fries instead of a salad with your dinner...it's that kind of thrill! #Acura #thatiswhoisactuallygoingtobuythenewTLX

Or you could just buy a ATS. Or the CTS. See, if Acura can't make up its mind about where this car sits, why should I? Where is the direction? Where is the clear calling out of the competition?

Whether Acura likes it or not, the Germans are there. And now they are getting more accessible to the average public. They need more. They need to draw customers in. But they aren't. They really aren't.

Every Tom, Dick and Harry has a 3 series/5 series competitor. Ironically the very same stagnation that allowed Cadillac to creep on the Germans is the same stagnation that made Acura into what it is now.

Stop selling by your badge. Stop straddling lines. Call a segment out and beat it to the ground. No one is handing you sales, especially cause of your Japanese heritage. I'd sooner recommend the interesting IS before I recommended a TLX. Because the IS knows what it is.

The TLX is just Grounded to the Ground Part Deux.

Remember, up until recently, the CTS was in the same place this car is going to be. The car itself doesn't look too bad either.

Thanks for removing the beak. I'd like it with just the aura emblem or no emblem but NO BEAK for sure!

Everyone would Boe, but Acura doesn't give a damn. Isn't it crazy how one tweak makes the car look 10x better?!
