Still, even the most durable cars need occasional maintenance, and our service department is equipped to take care of your vehicle and put you back on the road in a timely manner.

But even with a older second - generation Boxster, we'd happily take one on a spirited back road run or use its (admittedly small) twin trunks for daily driver duty.

The A3 2.0 T is simply quite pleasant to hustle on a back road and even at a brisk pace, the car never gave pause or showed signs of strain through its brakes or tires.

This thing was going off on the narrow back roads even if you did not cross a line.

Whether your needing an Oil Change, Tire Rotation, Brake Pads and Rotors or even a Timing Belt our Acura certified technicians will have you back on the road in no time.

Even in its raciest, 306hp guise (there is a 477hp RC - F variant, but that's leagues ahead of the regular car in terms of pace and price), the RC is far more suited to the open road than it is on a twisty back route.

But it actually manages to tell you pretty much what's going on through the steering wheel and stays surprisingly flat, and surprisingly neutral, even when you tackle back road bends at probably less than sensible speeds.

But in reality it's a fair bit cheaper — even if it will set you back north of $ 150,000 once you've rolled - out of your local Lexus dealer and on to the road.

Get back on - road and there's no sane passing move it can't make, even when solidly loaded up.
