I have to say that I hate rain-sensing wipers too. They have always only served to frustrate me.Great read!

I was waiting for a test like this, thanks automobile. I hope acura makes a type-s 6-speed super handling all wheel drive soon. Then again they may not they may not have space on the trunk to place all those words, phrase acronym whatever!

The article states you can't get rain-sensing wipers in the Acura, a curious omission at this price point. I HATE those wipers! I've had them in several of my cars and feel it's one of the WORST ideas in years. They never work consistently in a given amount of rain. I also can't stand starter buttons, especially when the key has to be put in the ignition first.
