ACURA says it can achieve Tier-1 status without RWD and V8s

Most obvious: They can start by killing "Power Plenum"
Terrible front grille. Really ****ing hideous atrocity has got to go.
Heck, when compared to this
The Honda Legend version is waaay better front grille
IMHO, that's the only thing that I dislike about current Acura vehicles.
P.S.
Still
I know you guys are gonna hate me but I would prefer that Acura make the SH-AWD drivetrain as mandatory throughout their entire lineup. IMHO, their torque-vectoring AWD system is the one feature or thing that makes their cars unique from similar offerings from the competition. Sure, it's gonna be heavier than FWD, RWD and thus consume more fuel.....but IMHO, there are benefits that it gets in return (such as rock-solid stability and traction, etc.)
So personally IMHO, I hope they retain the SH-AWD on their cars and thus hope that ALL of their vehicles use it. Also, I'm hoping that Honda would start adopting SH-AWD in more Honda-branded vehicles.
My two cents

I almost puked looking at hte first pic, then I fell asleep seeing the 2nd huge pic. Re-size mahn!
I no longer will crap on Acura. They are an afterthought and its beating a dead VERY ugly horse over and over.
Acura is now "luxurystyle" so I gave it a loophole. People should be thanking me

RX and ES sales, the main models for Lexus are solid at the moment, with RX sales currently very strong and IS sales seem to be going on an upward trend compared to the past few months, with the IS-C.
The new HS seems to be getting a lot of orders as well in Japan and North America.
