because acuras are hondas and fan are more into what is underneath the hood and acuras are all honda engineering. Not to talk about that in japan there aren't acuras they all just say honda on them. the japaneese variants of the cars are faster bc of rules so a lot of guys want you to think they have the real japaneese variant.

Because an Acura is an over glorified Honda. Look at the engine of an Acura. it says Honda on it.

Because Acuras are made by Honda and they do not want the "elite" symbol on their car.

It's taking the car back down to it is roots.

Simply because Honda builds Accura cars. they're bigger than a Honda Civic. Go to honda.com and see for your self.

They don't want any one to know that they bought the wrong car.

Acura is really an affiliated company of Honda
So Honda generally makes Acura, just with a diffrerent brand name. And Acura does have own sign, but some people favor to go with the big picture.

Honda practically owns Acura. If you ever had the chance to look under the hood of an Acura, you will see H_O_N_D_A on the valve cover of the engine.

Well, since everyone elses answer is 'it's an overglorified Honda' I will explain. Certain Honda and Acura models are generally the same car just with minor differences in design. One example is the Acura RSX and the Honda Integra. When people go for JDM they remove the Acura logos to make it true to it Japanese counterparts.
