Summary

After 38.5 years at Honda and Acura, legendary designer Dave Marek finally retires — and joins us to reflect on one of the most influential careers in modern automotive history. From the golden era of Japanese performance to the birth of Acura… from the original NSX to the Element and Ridgeline… from the HondaJet to EV collaborations with GM — Dave was there for all of it. This is a masterclass in automotive design, leadership, and the “Honda Way.” If you love car design history, Japanese performance, or behind-the-scenes industry stories — this episode is for you.
