To the ZDX's defense not sure how they come up with worst selling. To me the best way to figure it out is a vehicles sales vs targets. I mean if Ferrari sells 100 FF models it can't be the worst selling car if they only want to sell 100.

They wanted to sell 6k first year, then 8k then 10k of them. They sold around 3k first year and then half that the next year.

But not sure how they figured out how its the 4th worse selling car?
I guess cars like Ferrari and Lamborghini are dont fall into line as mainstream vehicles?

Models like the RL need a complete redesign because it's LONG overdue.
I saw a new RL on the way to lunch today and I had to laugh a little at the guy driving it. With all of the options on the market and you picked that ancient thing??

My thoughts, exactly! What else would you call it when a manufacturer receives endless negative press about the gawd awful styling of the ZDX/Crosstour and their only comment is; "well, we don't really care what the consumer or the press thinks, we think it's beautiful, therefore, we're keeping it and redesigning it to look exactly like the old one."
Really, what is this manufacturer thinking? It just boggles the mind.

Denial.

Maybe they should add a machine gun turret as well as some armor to this battle boat.

Yes, the Acura BATTLE BOAT

No, they left it here for a reason. They don't want it back.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw one going out of mall parking last week. The RL doesn't look good in person either. But at least I don't turn my head away from it like whenever I see a ZDX on the road.
