Honda - Acura Brochures (some just recently purchased at the Honda charity sale)




Drove one just like the one in this picture in 1988 or so.  It was a test vehicle purchased by Ford.  Drove it on the Dearborn test track (had access anytime...).  It was a very nice car to drive.  The rear quarter windows went down all the way by going down then rotating to be able to go nearly all the way down.  It's a clever mechanism...





The NSX was the first All-Aluminum volume production car.  The castings for the suspension and chassis are works of art.



Clarice's first new car (1991 Integra LS - came standard with a moonroof, which was unusual at the time...).  What a nice car (huge greenhouse, fantastic suspension -- double wishbone, zippy twincam engine, very low cowl...).
