Tyson Hugie, douchebag. Round 3 [View Article] (Score: 1, Normal)

Could Acura be any more insincere in their BS campaign involving Tyson Hugie? PAID...I think so! In their latest FB push, they now claim the ILX was designed in Tochigi - not S Pasadena by Ikeda. And even try to invoke the 'Precision Crafted Performance' motto of Acuras original mission. But neither Jeff Conrad, nor Tyson Hugie, knows anything about THAT Acura.

He sure is stumping for Acura these days. They must be nervous about the ILX.

I don't even want to look...

Acura, I can accept the ILX for what it is. No need to force feed paid opinions down my throat.

Just make it simple.

Agree... Love the car, hate the marketing around him. Although most people who don't know his history with Acura bucket him as that young 3-series doof, which could end up helping sales...

The salesmen I talked to today were pissed about the price. One also specifically was pissed about the lack of Tech package on the 2.4 model. Many comments about the Civic-based ILX priced too closely to the Accord-based TSX. Uh oh.
