Despite the recent recalls, Honda still maintains one of the lowest recall rates in the industry. When GM has a recall its a usual occurrence when Honda has one its a shocker which is why you jack offs are trying to make it a big deal Despite the RL not being a good seller due to the lack of a V8 it still holds it value more so than a comparable American counterpart. The RL will probably be my next car and its still a better choice than any GM Ford or Chrysler. I BTW I saw a Saturn Aura on the side of the road I didnt see any body damage. Yes the owner could have ran out of gas but judging from Gm's track record it was more than likely broken down To date I have seen one Malibu on the road and at least 3 accords per day Malibu and GM truly are inferior to the Japanese LOL thats just like the Corvettes roof flying off and the recent recall of the GM small trucks

When BMW came out with 320i, Honda won that debate. Honda did not pretend to compete in straight line with Chicken or 'Cuda. Fast forward 30 years and what Honda achieved is pretty amazing. Plymouth is gone and Pontiac resells cars from down under. Considering that Honda started from bicycle shop against the wishes of its own government, it is pretty mazing Cinderella story. Granted it is not American Cinderella, but original Cinderella does not have American roots either. jjt, I don’t know if RL is pinnacle of perfection, but Honda has been a success story for the past 30 years. 31 years ago when they introduced Accord as a coupe and had 150 dealers on 2 coasts unknown and untested car was a hit and was compared to BMW 2002, although it was FWD and had 75% of power of BMW 2002 and 50% of 2002tii.

It still looks good. The only company that improved sales in US so far this year. I am not surprised that quality of RL is worse then Accord. Accord is produced in huge numbers compare to RL or any other Acura model (except TSX - another Accord). All premium, low volume cars have issues. It still appears that Honda has the lowest number of issues (per CR and other press). Honda Motor Company appreciates everyone’s concern for its future. It still looks good.
