As much as I like my Integra, I think that the RSX is rather dead. A TSX Coupe would be nice, but one wonders how it would go in the market. A $40Kish AWD TL-based, or RWD, true midlux coupe would work wonders for Acura. I'd be happy if we got something like that to aspire to, as well as a new Prelude.

Unfortunately, I don't see a new Honda-badged coupe coming out that isn't called "Accord" or "Civic." Honda does do a lot of two-door cars compared to other guys. VW doesn't do any real coupes (New Beetle isn't a coupe, it's a fugly bubble).

Thanks to Mike for starting the thread, and MtViewGuy and HelmetHead for chiming in.
I'm sorry I haven't been around so much; Acurazine takes up a lot of my time. :chuckles: And as you might expect, they give the Integra/RSX no respect over there.

I think the RSX works now for funneling people into Acura, but at 20K units a year, that's not really all that much.
