Yes! No question about it. Built best in order of comparing vehicles:
1. Japan
2. Canada
3. USA
My first American made Honda's were a 98 Accord coupe, then the 01 Acura CL Type S. I've heard many times confirmed by my local acura dealerships insiders say the TL is a rattle box and made in Ohio. Just think about it. Japanese culture is completely different from the USA style. They work long hours, pride their work and have a deep compassion for Quality Assurance. I can't say the same for Americans in Ohio....I'm pure bred, born in the USA caucasion and would NEVER buy an american auto. The problem with HMC is the split between the Japanese excutives and the American Honda/acura executives. This has always been their problem. The Japanese still build the glass box transmissions and refuse to hand it over to its American counterparts.....CF I tell ya.......
The only thing American about my 04 RL is the tires are made in USA. Even the floor mat has stamped on it "Made in Japan".........I'd settle with a Japan made honda ANY DAY over Ohio and Canadian made honda's/acura's.....
