I have only had my vehicle for less than a month, but I can tell you my buying experience was phenominal. I visited several dealerships in the weeks leading up to my purchase and I did not receive near the quality of customer service that Tarrick provided to me. I can not tell you how easy he made the buying experience for me. I can also tell you his first price was better than what USAA told me would be a GREAT price. He was under the “target” price I was supposed to be aiming towards. I was shocked when I went home and found out he was 1000 dollars under what I was expecting to be a great price…. I went in and had a service done two days after my purchase and the service department was very efficient and pleasant. Overall wonderful experience to date. I love my car, I love the way it looks and the way it drives.-Kobannon

Does that cool, red — matches Iron Man’s suit — convertible that Tony Stark and Bruce Banner drive off in at the end of “The Avengers” look familiar to you?

You might have seen a similar car at the Detroit auto show. The movie car is a version of Acura’s NSX concept, not due out for a few years – and David Undercoffler, the auto critic for the Los Angeles Times, recently detailed how the car came to be – and how it ended up in the blockbuster superhero movie.

Since the NSX’s debut for the movie, bloggers and car enthusiasts have had fun posting photos and speculating about the concept car.

According to Undercoffler:

The project began in June 2001, when Dave Marek, the company’s director of design, got the final pages of “The Avengers” script and was told to design a mock-up. But Acura didn’t officially unveil the NSX concept until the Detroit auto show.

The car in the film is a convertible, but the official concept is a coupe, Undercoffler reports.

The auto critic also points out that the movie car has the license plate “Stark 33” because Robert Downy Jr.’s favorite number is 33.

MotorAuthority’s Viknesh Vijayenthiran reports that in addition to the NSX, Acura also had a S.H.I.E.L.D.-enhanced MDX at this year’s New York auto show. S.H.I.E.L.D., of course, is the fictional government agency from the movie. Vijayenthiran also reports that the concept is due in showrooms in about three years.

One online discussion thread shows photos of the movie car with a mock-up window sticker, “2012 Stark Industries Super Car,” that puts city mileage at 234 and highway mileage at 302. (Yeah, it’s movie magic.)

The sticker also says the car comes fully equipped with a palm-scan ID steering wheel, enviro-clone projected hologram of surroundings, self-detonating recon drone and night-vision HUD windshield. It lists the total price as $9,229,000, including tax and registration and other fees.

Yes, even superheros pay taxes.

I bought my Acura TSX in November 2011 and it was the easiest buying experience I have EVER had in my life!! They had everything ready exactly as I asked, the paperwork was correct, no sneaky stuff, and it was all ready for me to sign when I came in. I also brought it in around February or March for an oil change. Not only was it cheap (only about $50 ish which is about how much it would cost if I did it myself) but they washed the car inside and out AND filled up other fluids and just did a routine check to make sure the car was fine. They also fixed a recall that had to do with the CD player (which I don’t use so I didn’t take it in before) and that was all done in great time. I highly recommend them!!-Ashley

Honda’s robotics research leads to more-stable vehicles.

The automaker has drawn from the superfast balancing system it uses to keep its experimental humanoid robots from toppling as they walk for use in a stability system on the new, 2013 Acura ILX compact sedan.

The ILX, loosely based on the Honda Civic, goes on sale May 22, starting at $26,795.

The “face” of Honda’s humanoid robotics research is a human-acting robot Honda calls Asimo. Honda foresees a time when Asimo and its ilk will be used as

“companions” to people who’d otherwise need assisted living or live-in human helpers.

Asimo walks like a person, lifting its legs one at a time and bending at the knee, and has articulated arms and hands so it can, for example, open a jar of apple butter or a bottle of sports drink for someone whose grip or arm strength is limited.

First time you see Asimo demonstrated, you’ll swear there’s a person inside making it move like that. Asimo and other industrial robots show up now and then at robot exhibitions around the country; worth a visit.

The robotics-inspired vehicle stability, or anti-skid, system will, Acura says, ensure “more responsive handling under icy or slippery conditions. The concept for this additional algorithm is based on patented knowledge gained from humanoid robotics research and development work.”

Stability systems work by comparing what the driver intends, based largely on the steering wheel position, with what the car’s actually doing. If it’s not pointed as it should be, stability systems lightly apply the brakes on individual wheels to pivot the car into proper line.

The robotics-derived system speeds up the ability of the software to judge what the driver intends, making the whole anti-skid system work faster.
