    saw avengers assemble last night ...decent movie ... but dont be expecting any major scenes with the prototype nsx. couple of quick frame shots and thats all

    however during the show a particular shot of a smashed up acura 4x4 stayed on screen longer ... go figure?!

    Presumably it improved the goofy grille.

    •Expected to go on sale in the US in 2015 - badged as an Acura

    I dunno whether to applaud their honesty about badge-engineering, or suggest the killing of the entire marketing dept. No wonder Accurist is such a joke brand.

    The cars are better than they look, but the marketing is appalling.

    Whatever, at least one can now look at HUK's webite without the danger of fatal boredom setting in instantaneously.

    Lets hope the advertising is like it used to be!

    Honda used to win adverts awards, remember the Accord one.

    TSO,

    Remember the Accord, let alone the utterly brilliant 'Cog'!

    The rumour is that at the end of the current model's cycle, Honda's giving up trying in the D-segment saloon car market, defeated by the might of the German marketing propaganda machine.

    Nick, Accord aside, the Legend seems like a really good car, just never sold in big numbers
    & as correctly pointed out, struggled against the German market leaders! Also a tad too
    expensive when new.
