"The American consumer is re-discovering cars and the timing for the all-new 2006 Civic couldn't be better," said Dick Colliver, executive vice president of American Honda. "The Civic has been strong out of the gate and Honda's diverse lineup of light trucks has set a record for four consecutive months."

Thats a pretty weird chart for Acura, up 2.3% in January, down 12.4% in February, I wonder what caused that shift? Overall though, good news for AHMC, although by how good their products have been recently I'm not at all surprised.
