I like Motorweek, but Acura TLX best luxury car?

 

Here is MotorWeek's Road Test video for Acura TLX. John Davis said "It's a precision-crafted, tech-savvy nature that makes the TLX just seem smarter than the rest, with fine sport sedan abilities as an added bonus".

That's the ILX.  TLX is an Accord (and for years in Europe our TSX/TLX WAS their Accord).

2021 TLX uses a unique Acura exclusive platform that's distinct from that used for Honda Accord.

 

too many damn made up names so you confuse them all ?

Exactly...BMW, Mercedes and maybe Lexus can get away with it because of the Brand name has more cashe to it 

 

They've also use largely the same names for decades now, so they're kinda engrained into peoples minds, whereas Lincoln and Acura Infiniti (and others) have used several different naming schemes within the last decade or two.

Also, some use a more understandable alphanumeric naming scheme than the one Lincoln used. Like with BMW with small to larger numbers for sedans/coups as they grow in size and cost, and for crossovers the same but preceded by an X. Similar approach with Audi, with its A-low-number-to-higher-number for sedans/coups, and Q-ditto on the crossover side of things. Genesis does the same with it's G(some number) and GV(some number) names.

Mercedes/BMWs old system was pretty easy to understand at the time, but as things got more complicated...well it got more convoluted
