For the 2009 model year, the RL received an extensive mid-model change (MMC), and made its introduction at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6, 2008, billed as "the most extensive Acura MMC ever". The new sedan was designated KB2 in the VIN codes, differentiating it from the 20052008 KB1 chassis VIN code. The revised sedan was released on July 1, 2008 to dealerships. The engine is upgraded to 3.7L with 300 hp (220 kW). While on paper, the engine may seem to be the same unit as shared with the Acura MDX, it is actually a variant that introduces for the first time ever on a SOHC Honda V6, an implementation of the Honda VTEC variable valve train technology on the exhaust side for improved horsepower and torque. Heretofore, all previous SOHC Honda V6 with VTEC used the technology on the intake side only[19]. The engine emissions has been improved to meet the stricter U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) TIER 2 BIN 5 and California Air Resources Board ULEV-2 standards. Implementation of the SH-AWD was adjusted for earlier intervention and a more rear wheel bias for better handling dynamics (WIKIPEDIA) for more info please visit acura.com]]> Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:30:05 GMT http://www.acuraonbrant.com/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,35/task,viewvideo/video_id,15/  2010 Acura TL - His & Her Test Drives - Driving.ca]]> Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:30:04 GMT http://www.acuraonbrant.com/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,35/task,viewvideo/video_id,14/  Here's the Acura commercial "Exclamation" for the 2010 Acura ZDX.

The population of crossover SUVs styled to look like coupes and sedans is now large enough to constitute a trend. Somebody likes the idea of these vehicles, probably even someone you know. If you go to the New York auto show, you'll see a prototype version of the ZDX, but like most Acura showcars, it's months, not years, away from production. The 2010 Acura ZDX goes on sale this fall. The Acura ZDX is to the Acura MDX what the BMW X6 is to the X5. And just like BMW, Acura calls the ZDX a "four-door sport coupe." Of course, the specs describe an SUV, not a coupe. The ZDX has a 108.2-inch wheelbase, which is within a tenth of the MDX, and at 192.4 inches from nose to hatchback rump, the ZDX is 1.7 inches longer. Both vehicles are 78.5 inches wide. But there's a big height difference. At 61.8 inches tall, the ZDX is 6.4 inches shorter than the MDX and just 4.6 inches taller than the TL sedan. So the 2010 Acura ZDX is sort of low-slung like a coupe, or like the BMW 5 Series GT. And with its fast roof line, the ZDX dispenses with the standard third-row seat that condemns the MDX to family wagon status. It still seats five, though, thanks to a conventional three-across rear bench. Whether the 2010 ZDX has turned that critical corner to out-and-out coolness is debatable, but even in photos, it feels more designed than the shapeless TL and TSX. Inside the cabin, a hand-stitched leather dash gives it a more luxurious feel than any current Acura. Of course, that's one of those touches that might not make it to the production version. Perhaps the most important advance on the 2010 Acura ZDX is the arrival of a six-speed automatic transmission, which has been notably absent from the MDX, TL and the RL flagship. We expect this six-speed to replace the company's five-speed automatic across the board for the 2010 model year. We also expect the ZDX to have a version of Acura's 3.7-liter V6 engine, though the company hasn't officially disclosed the engine displacement. As on the MDX, the company's Super-Handling All-Wheel-Drive (SH-AWD) system is standard equipment for the ZDX. We're cautiously hopeful that the ZDX might beat the MDX's tepid 8.1-second 0-60-mph performance. Acura doesn't make any claims about sport-coupelike handling for the 2010 Acura ZDX, but the prototype wears the same size rubber as the TL SH-AWD. However, it's telling that these 275/40ZR20 tires are all-season Michelin Latitudes — the same as you'll find on the MDX.]]> Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:29:58 GMT http://www.acuraonbrant.com/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,35/task,viewvideo/video_id,11/  Acura is ready to take on the Lexus IS, BMW 3 Series, and Audi A4 with their new TSX V-6.]]> Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:29:57 GMT http://www.acuraonbrant.com/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,35/task,viewvideo/video_id,10/  A montage of video from Acura's B-Roll.]]> Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:29:55 GMT http://www.acuraonbrant.com/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,35/task,viewvideo/video_id,9/  http://www.goodsonacura.com 888.767.4746 2009 Acura TL Match Commercial - Stop by your Acura Dealer, Goodson Acura at www.goodsonacura.com or call 888.767.4746.

It carries enough speed through the corners to make us a little nervous, but the lack of tire squeal makes it clear that we're far from pushing its limits. Jamming this TL into a hairpin doesn't upset it either. The brakes scrub off plenty of speed and the transmission executes perfect, rev-matched downshifts. When we flat foot the throttle on the way out, the newly optional Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system puts down all 305 horsepower of the 3.7-liter V6 to the pavement without a single chirp of the tires. When we finally hit leisurely traffic on Pacific Coast Highway, the TL returns to luxury sedan mode. The cabin goes silent, the transmission smoothly sifts through the gears and the suspension soaks up everything short of a sinkhole. We're not surprised, as this is the classic Acura formula — admirable performance coupled with high-tech luxury, and now the TL has a little more of both.]]> Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:27:39 GMT http://www.acuraonbrant.com/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,35/task,viewvideo/video_id,4/  http://tinyurl.com/luxcza After a few hours of torrential rain in Orange Park, FL we found a rare breed of Acura. The NSX Submarine. This was a male driver who actually drove through this deep area three times in 15 minutes! He has lived in the neighborhood for many years and knows about the bad drainage in rare, extreme conditions. The water was higher the first time through but I didn't have the camera. I caught him on this third pass. I have since seen the the same dude in the same car many times ... running like a top.]]> Mon, 26 Apr 2010 23:27:37 GMT http://www.acuraonbrant.com/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,35/task,viewvideo/video_id,3/  FOR PRICING & SPECS ON THIS CAR VISIT: http://www.kbb.com/KBB/NewCars/Acura_TL.aspx 2009 Acura TL. The styling of the Acura TL may not appeal to everyone but we think most buyers will appreciate the improved interior space, comfort and advanced technology of the latest generation. To meet the varying needs of customers, the TL is offered in two flavors, a front-wheel-drive base model and a sportier all-wheel-drive model. The BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class still dominate the class, but compelling content and good value may encourage customers to give the Acura TL a second look.
