Just a Simple Arithmetic Problem, or is it? 2+1=???

Acura-concept-img1_pq73p_5965
If you said Acura's bold new concept car then you are one of the few to guess correctly!

Acura 2+1 concept from designer Leon Paz is a design aimed at the youth. The aggressively designed concept looks at the people who would like a performance like the NSX, but cannot afford it. This concept will bridge the gap to provide NSX-like performance at more affordable costs. The aggressively-attractive concept is a great design, and built with focus squarely on the performance.

Two (5) Star reviews on DealerRater!

  • My wife and I visited this dealership with the intention of looking at an RDX. It was late on a Sunday afternoon and all 2011 and 2012 RDX models were gone. We were assisted by Yizzel who is extremely knowledgeable about the Acura line as well as cars in general. SHe showed us a comparable 2009 and invited us back at our convenience for a test drive. As we realized by our return that our desires had changed to an MDX. Yizzel was more than accommodating and allowed us to test both. We decided on the MDX. Yizzel and her sales manager worked with us to find the right fit and we purchased a certified pre owned MDX 2009. We were very comfortable throughout the process and never felt pressured. We would recommend Yizzel and the team at Paragon to any and all future purchasers. In addition I would be remiss not to mention a feature that Paragon had which is lacking at all other dealerships. Wendy was the representative who actually spent the time to give us a personalized tutorial of the vehicle and all of it's amenities. I have never heard of such a program on a new car and they did this for a used one as well. We were beside ourselves and able to leave the dealership with a feeling of comfort because someone took the time to familiarize us with our new baby. WOW! What a concept and Kudos to the entire team at Paragon. You have earned my business hands down. Other dealerships should visit your establishment and aspire to be all that you are. Kudos! To all.and thank you especially Yizzel and Wendy!

  • It was a great experience from start to finish. I leased a 2012 Acura RDX from Paragon. I knew exactly what I wanted and at what price. Yizzel did not waste any time in getting started and then following through everything that was required till the delivery of the vehicle. I had to go through many rounds of negotiations, but in the end got close enough to the deal I was looking for. I bought the vehicle the same day. Their follow up after delivery has also been great so far. I haven't gotten the car serviced yet; will write a review about that as well soon. - ashutosharya

New Acura NSX Reportedly Under Development with Plug-in Hybrid Drivetrain

2005-honda-nsx-above-623x389
After years of off-and-on rumors about whether Honda would build a successor to the NSX supercar, it now seems that such a car is under development. At the Frankfurt Motor Show and several other recent events, Honda CEO Takanobu Ito has confirmed that his company is hard at work developing a “sports car like the NSX.” A new report from Motor Trend reveals that the upcoming car could have as much as 400 hp and offer all-wheel drive.

Motor Trend posits that the new NSX would follow in the footsteps of the Honda Dualnote, a futuristic concept car unveiled at the 2001 Tokyo Motor Show. The Dualnote had forward-thinking features like in-car email access, pedestrian-detection cameras, and touch-opening doors. More importantly the concept car used a mid-mounted 3.5-liter V-6 engine to power the rear wheels, and an electric motor to power the front wheels.The combination was claimed to yield 400 hp and fuel economy of 42 mpg.

The new Honda supercar will follow that strategy, with a high-revving V-6 displacing 3.5 to 3.7 liters powering the rear wheels. Out front, twin electric motors will power the front wheels with energy from a lithium-ion battery pack. The car could be recharged at home, like a plug-in hybrid.

Motor Trend’s sources say that the drivetrain will produce an incredibly powerful new car, although Honda apparently is not targeting an all-out Nürburgring lap-time machine. The body will be made of aluminum, as with the first NSX, helping keep weight low.

Styling, however, still remains a secret. Although many suggest the new car could resemble the concept readied for use in the forthcoming Avengers superhero movie, Acura representatives insist the car is but a one-off styling exercise for the movie. We can only hope some of the cues do work their way into the finished NSX.

  • I had a great experience at Paragon Acura leasing a new MDX. The pricing was great and they worked with me to find the best deal. What was most impressive was the delivery when Wendy took the time to fully explain all the car features. At the same time my kids were treated to cookies to keep them patient. This dealer knows how to take care of a customer and make the car purchase a great experience. No wonder I hear people come from outside the tri-state area to buy there. A great combination of a fair price and outstanding service. - Robruiz
