Acura is recalling select 2002 and 2003 TL and CL models to replace a potentially defective driver's side airbag inflator.

If Autocar is correct, Honda will show a Super Sports Concept, which may become the next Acura NSX, at the Detroit Auto Show.

Last month a mysterious Acura concept sporting a similar shape to the mid-engine Audi R8 supercar was spotted on the set of the upcoming The Avengers movie. In the movie, the Acura concept will serve as the personal ride of Robert Downey Jr.’s character Tony Stark, a.k.a. Iron Man. You may...

There seems to be no end to the number of exotic supercars being found left abandoned in the harsh conditions of the Middle East. Two of the more notable examples include this Ferrari Enzo currently sitting in a police impound lot in Dubai, as well as this Jaguar XJ220 left in the Qatari desert...

Unlike Kobe Bryant's fake ‘jump’ over an Aston Martin, or fellow NBA star Blake Griffin’s dunk over a Kia Optima, wait, over the bonnet of a Kia Optima, a man has now managed to not only jump, but complete a full flip over a moving Acura NSX. In the video below, taken at the 2nd...

In his own Iron Man movies, Tony Stark, played by actor Robert Downey Jr., chose to get around in an Audi R8 for the first movie and then upgraded to an Audi R8 V10 Spyder for the sequel. However, in the new The Avengers movie opening next spring, Stark has swapped the Audis for a brand new Acura...

This is Acura’s 25th year in the business and in celebration of the milestone the upmarket Honda division has been releasing a number of updates on its 2012 models. The latest to receive the updates is the 2012 Acura TSX, which spawns a new “Special Edition” model featuring a...

The new-generation Acura RSX is expected to be available in coupe and sedan bodystyles, and eventually a convertible option may be offered.

The rebirth of the NSX, now in hybrid form, is once again underway. As we wait to see how--or even if--it takes form, rumors of a new RSX are brewing at Acura. Unlike the NSX, the new RSX isn't expected to be a hybrid. Instead, it will share the new Civic Si's 2.4-liter i-VTEC four-cylinder, rated...

When it was launched as a 2009 model, the Acura TL was the most extreme definition of Acura's new styling direction. It was a polarizing design, with a brash front end and beak-like silver grille surround. According to Acura marketers, buyers in Miami and New York loved it, but Californians and...

Andy Warhol famously said that in the future, everyone will be famous for 15 minutes. Thanks to the heady combination of reality TV and the internet, he's been proven right. The culture of instant celebrity is both a blessing and a curse. On the curse side: Rebecca Black and Speidi (who may have...

There’s a new comic book derived movie brewing in Hollywood and this one is set to feature a handful of cars from one of the least heard of luxury brands, Acura. The movie we’re talking about is Thor, the story of an ancient warrior brought to Earth to defend humanity and get chased by...

If you're jonesing for some slightly de-beaked Acura TL, you don't have long to wait: the new 2012 version goes on sale on March 18. Unfortunately, apart from a very mild restyle and a new Sequential SportShift six-speed automatic transmission, there's not much new to the TL. Or perhaps that's...

The current-generation Acura TL's styling has been controversial since its debut a few years ago. In this case, "controversial" is a euphemism for "ugly." It's unfortunate, because the TL is actually a pretty good car, especially TLs with a six-speed manual. Well, the near-universal derision has...

We've already brought you key details and live photos of the 2012 Acura TL fresh from Chicago, but now we have the full details. A mild mid-cycle refresh, the 2012 TL adds value to the existing car without significantly changing the package. Acura pitches it as "refined, yet aggressive," and we...

The "refined" 2012 Acura TL just hit the stage at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show, and we've got the live shots from its debut. Largely a carry-over from last year's model, the mid-cycle refresh brings some minor tweaks, but unfortunately doesn't ditch the funky, chunky grille. Powered by a...

Acura announced last month that the 2012 Acura TL will debut in "newly refined" form at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show. Refined how? In styling and performance, according to Acura. Yesterday, we learned it will come with a live webcast of the reveal as well, allowing followers to see the refinement...

The 2011 Acura TL is an excellent car to drive. It boasts a powerful V-6 engine, it's available with one of the world's best all-wheel drive systems, and the SH-AWD manual transmission model is quite possibly the best sport sedan you can buy for the price. Problem is, it suffers from one of the...
