Favorite feature: |
Ride and handling |
Least favorite feature: |
Somewhat feeble 4 wheel drive system. 4 wheel lock is useless above 18 mph |
Advice to buyer: |
Compare carefully if this if you do a lot of snow country driving |
Detailed review: |
Sorry Acura, but the 4 wheel drive system is somewhat anemic compared to other comparable vehicles. Think twice if you do a lot of winter driving. I found that the autotrac system is slow to respond and does not give the driver a sense of confidence that conventional 4wheel drive systems have. I enjoy the reliability and handling and comfort of city driving, but if you head for the hills or live in snow country this might not be your first choice. One last beef is the relatively poor gas mileage for an 'efficient' 6 cylinder. |
