Despite the retuning of the suspension, the car isn't really a sporty sedan. The Acura has a cushy ride designed to make you feel right at home, like you're sitting in your favorite easy chair. The front bucket seats are more comfortable than the rear bench, particularly if you pack three full-size adults in the back. And with the front seats pushed back to accommodate larger people, there's not much leg room left for the rear passengers. Trunk space is ample at 14 cubic feet.
Luxury features abound, and the interior is quite elegant without being ostentatious.
The seats are leather, there is genuine burl walnut trim on the dash and in the doors, and the automatic climate control keeps the temperature just perfect. The exterior features a prominent grille, sculpted side contours, and an integrated front bumper for a smooth, uncluttered look. The list of standard features is almost endless. Fuel economy is a respectable 19 miles per gallon in the city and 25 on the highway. The fuel tank holds 18 gallons.
