sounds good to me

I am curious to know what the TSX will be powered by, and if we'll be seeing AWD or RWD in the mix. I really have no interest in the Latitude...and ask if the "AH-HA" member has had any information stemming from what will power the next Accord.

like yianni64 said i think it will be the k24 with about 220hp and a
i-vtec 3.0 V6 with around 260hp type S..maybe even a tuned type R version with 300-320hp? to go up against the M3...with those engines this "TSX" with a 6 speed and around 3000lbs it will kick some ass

True true true I forgot abou the 2.4, it can be tuned to 210-220 HP easily to make it a very sporty car, then a smallish V6 like you said that also revs high would be great :thumbup:

Eh, who knows, some of those (IMA) are just rumors we wish would happen, Acura's has yet to say anything about em.

BTW, the long awaited red x is still coming out? The slying is great, I just wish it had more color options.

The 4 door teg sold very very horribly. Its price is reported to be set between the RSX and the TL, so I don't think so.

SPORTS CARS - >_SX (NSX, TSX, RSX)
LUXURY CARS - >_L (TL, CL, RL)
TRUCKS - > _DX (MDX, RDX)

That makes alot more sense, providing the DN-X concept car was an abbreviation of DualNote. The NSX has such a good nameplate and is widely recognized, they cant change its name.
