ok what is the point behind putting HONDA on a ACURA integra? Is it just something people put on their cars or are theres cars actually manufactured with honda instead of acura emblems on them? :dunno: im a NooB so excuse me.... just trying to learn a few things so i know......

JoePoonani

acura is just the american division of the luxury honda cars. in japan and the rest of the world, theres all honda and no acura.

sooooo acura is only in the USA?

JoePoonani

yup. america is so obsessed with status that they need to have a different division. just like infiniti = nissan and lexus = toyota

bluetwo

Acura, Lexus, and Infinity are all just "name brand" manufacturers. They are, in that same order: Honda, Toyota and Nissan cars with different badges. Oh yeah. Scions are made by Toyota too. Americans are just so brand concious that it's the name that sells.

Robstunner

yeah, and its more JDM to put Honda badges in your acura..... soooooo cooooooool maannnnnnnnn. lol who am i kidding, i had honda emblems on my old car.
