Acura gave my wife and I free rental cars (via Enterprise) while waiting on parts. Been about 5 weeks now, surprised it's taking so long. Must be costing them a ton of money.

Did they give you a comparable luxury vehicle or a inexpensive car?
I don't think an Acura is really a luxury vehicle anymore, same thing with Audi. They don't seam to be any nicer appointed than any other options loaded car. Now if you had a Porsche, Ferrari, BMW, Bentley, or something similar that would be another issue.

It took them 15 years to realize this???

I think of cars as upscale or not. Not sure if Acura isn't any different than comparable BMW, MB, Lexus, or Infiniti. The Acura is a little moe sporty than Lexus, but Lexus's flagship car is very highly upscale, whereas the flagship Acura is just bigger, but about the same at the mid sized TL.
