The "400Z" is mentioned in the "Anything With A Stick At This Point" choice, although it's not clear if they are dismissing it (and the Supra) as not being "efficient, useful, and otherwise affordable".

There's no mention of the Apple Car either, which is rumoured to be announced "soon" ... for about the 387th time.

Saw the "Integra" and immediately closed the tab. Upcoming? Accurate. Exciting? Ehhhhhhhh.

Swing and a miss, Jalopnik.

a lot of better cars are left of the list and questionable ones are in their place...

i always laugh at the folks who say we're complaining if a sports car doesn't have a manual option...it's usually code for "i can't drive stick"

yes i understand that today's autos are better, faster, blah blah blah...i just want the options

Nope, terrible write-up. Granted I like their entertaining articles usually.

sounded like a "rookies" first shot at an article...

When you need a story, do a poll. ?

 

[Denver the Last Dinosaur]

Jalopnik runs a few of these poll-type questions each week. Pretty much all of them are pointless and badly skewed by their biased readership.

Great. Fewer people fighting to get the new Zs.

I also laughed when it mentioned Integra also.
Owned a '91 Integra before.
Super reliable, but it did not belong to Acura brand, IMHO.

 

[Denver the Last Dinosaur]

In most countries it was called the "Honda Integra". Acura was meant to be the luxury sub-brand for the company, like Toyota has Lexus.

And they wonder why they're underpaid and striking. Terrible article with very little thought put into it.

The new Z will 100% have android auto and apple car play.

 

[Denver the Last Dinosaur]

^ Apple Car ... not Apple Car Play. Unfortunately the Apple Car (if it ever happens) will be silly autonomous driving only.

 

[Drseckzytime]

They threw in a catch all with the stick thing. That said, it is a typical low effort Jalopnik article. They are not what they used to be, that's for sure.

I mean they have the so-called Integra on there...

I hate their articles showing random old cars with well over 100k asking if they are worth $10k. Ugh.
