Acura RL

 
The  RL is the flagship of Acura.  The RL is basically a mildly re-engineered Legend  (A previous model of Acura).  The 3.5RL is significantly larger, and gains a five percent increase in horsepower.  Maximum torque is now developed at 2800 rpm instead of the pervious 4500 rpm on the Legend - providing the immediate throttle response that North Americans like.  Though it's not a performance sedan, the 3.5RL has high cornering limits and a superb ride.
