3.7-liter VTEC Engine
While Acura engineers are certainly concerned with creating generous amounts of pulse-quickening power, their first priority is ensuring that the power is created as efficiently as possible. Consider the ZDX engine, which utilizes two separate cam profiles in order to generate peak performance throughout the powerband. A cold-air induction system packs in more oxygen for more powerful combustion. The use of materials like aluminium and magnesium allow result in a lighter, more agile vehicle. Open the throttle and you'll instantly appreciate the power of innovative thinking.

Central Park, NYC - Winter
See more sizes on my new website, Raymond Larose Photography.
Central Park was the first landscaped public park in the United States. Advocates of creating the park--primarily wealthy merchants and landowners--admired the public grounds of London and Paris and urged that New York needed a comparable facility to establish its international reputation. A public park, they argued, would offer their own families an attractive setting for carriage rides and provide working-class New Yorkers with a healthy alternative to the saloon. After three years of debate over the park site and cost, in 1853 the state legislature authorized the City of New York to use the power of eminent domain to acquire more than 700 acres of land in the center of Manhattan.
