I had a 1991 Acura Integra sedan, and it had no grille at all, just an intake below the bumper.

I mad efor a very low hood. Combined with Acura's very low cowl line at the time and you had great vision; it felt like you were in a formula car.

Even my 2001 Acuta TL has a very small grille.

It seems manufacturers think we want massive grilles to give our cars identity. In a day when aero is so important, you'd think they'd be going the other way.

Thanks for your comment. I've noticed that the manufacturers no longer mention aerodynamics in their advertising. With today's fuel prices they'd better change, and soon.

1. I haven't seen Cd in an advert. in a while.

2. If you want to compare big/little grills on the same basic car, ramp forward 3- 4 years to the Golden Hawk.

I have a huge issue with the Audi and VW grills. They ruin otherwise fine looking cars. I actually decided against buying an Audi because of it. Read more > http://autoclay.blogspot.com/2008/04/shut-your-mouth.html
