Acura is the luxury arm of Japanese automaker Honda, and manufactures a number of
high-end vehicles.
While luxury prices can be sky-high when bought new, buyers can often get lightly-used
vehicles at around the same price as a new car from a less prestigious brand. A
good start for those looking to get into a luxury car is the
Acura TSX, an entry-level luxury car that is a step up
from the Honda Accord. Drivers looking for slightly more powerful sedans might consider
Acura's flagship
RL midsize sedan or slightly more affordable
TL.
Acura also manufactures a number of crossover and SUV options. The
MDX is the car's true SUV offering, while the company
also features two crossovers: the entry-level
RDX and full luxury
ZDX.
The luxury brand is also famous for its legendary NSX vehicle, which was a slightly more economic take on
the European sports car before it was discontinued in 2005. These cars were popular
among modders and tuners, so those shopping for an NSX
on the used car market should be sure exactly what's under the hood before they
buy.
