Acura has floundered in their near-luxury offering since they invented the class in 1990-ish. I used to love Legend coupes. Awesome. I almost never forgave them for giving up that name for a soulless alphanumeric nomenclature. But such are the times. They invented the class! Why give up the heritage?

uhhhhhhh ..............
hang on just a minute i think that every single car magazine in the world agrees that bmw created and perfected the near luxery car if you don't believe me read the review of a 3 series on edmunds.com they say it all the time
and hal about that 3 series you "smoked" what kind we talking about because it could not have been any of these, unless you were up against a driver who didn't know how to work a clutch, e46 325, 330 m3 e36 m3 or an e30 m3
if we were to break it down to an autocross course like that car is designed for also known as Europe all 3 series of any lineage would crush you because it isn't that ability to go fast really fast it is the abillity to keep speed through the turns that is rwd and that is he failure of fwd
i must however concede some styling points to the tl it does look pretty nice and attractive butis that what you really want when cruising 120 down the highway and johnny law sees you i don't know about you but at that point i kinda wana hide in the crowd
oh ramble ramble ramble ramble ramble ramble........
