Biggest Reason Buyers Reject Acura - Styling

"J.D. Power reports that exterior styling is the number one reason new car shoppers are rejecting the marque, followed closely by Acura's interior styling." - AutoBlog

Why am I not surprised? Acura should know they have a problem if dealers have to paint the grill to the current generation TL to make it more appealing to consumers. Instead of taking that as a sign, Acura puts the ugly grill on ALL their cars. I actually liked the MDX's old grill.

The problem with Acura's current interior styling is that it is way too "button happy." I had the hardest time locating the HVAC (fan) controls while driving a 2010 Acura TSX loaner from the dealership. It definitely felt good to be back in my 2005 Acura TSX.

Acura needs better stylists.

My New Year's Resolution for www.AboutAcura.com

First off, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

My New Year's Resolution for www.AboutAcura.com is to post more often. I not only want to post about Acura related articles, news, recalls, rumors, but also add a little bit more focus on problems & fixes, and technical service bulletins (TSBs). I noticed a large number of visits are from people who are researching an issue related to their Acura.

Feel free to share your New Year's Resolution (doesn't have to be Acura related).
