I was in a parking lot the other night and saw a large Acura sedan pull up next to mine. I glanced over at it and saw the front wheel bulge and assumed it was the new TL.. but after backing up and seeing the rear, I realized it was actually a new TSX! Despite appearances in photos, this has definitely grown in width and length, and appears to be about the size of the old TL! And the new TL is actually an inch or two longer than the RL. On top of that, they all have essentially the same V6 engine (recently upsized in the RL, but the same basic mill)! Obviously a brand with a serious identity crisis.

Each lower model is growing so large as to compete with the next larger model. Now Acura has no reasonably priced small entry level vehicle. Not to mention they quit making anything cool with 2 doors such as the Integra, RSX, and CL. Acura had the formula before, but lost it. I love the drivetrains and suspension of these luxury vehicles, but I think a lot of buyers like myself, don't care for the pretentious or gawdy "luxury" specs such as wood grain or sweaty leather. Here's what I want, a new RSX with the same 3 door/hatch layout, about 175hp to 200hp, with fully independent suspension, 4 wheel disc/ABS brakes, traction control, and a six speed auto with dual clutch and paddle shifters. It also needs to get 30 mpg and perhaps even be offered with a small turbo diesel. Moonroof has to come standard as well as cloth or microsuede interior. NO sweaty leather or woodgrain. Lose the luxury pretensions and give me the outstanding mechanicals. My '95 Integra had that great balance. Acura appears to be in a competition with itself.

Still, even in our current economy, the market in the mid-30s is COVERED in RWD sedans with a 6-speed stick or auto option. Honda cannot put off RWD (or lots more SH-AWD) much longer. Honestly, I REALLY like the car but there's little here to draw me performance-wise from the CTS 3.6DI, G37, or the like.

As for comparing the STI to the CTS, I didn't -- I said it would blow its doors off, not that it was a comparable car or in the same near-luxury, 4,000lb RWD segment. And indeed, an STI would put a CTS in its place on any surface in any conditions, and keep going 50,000 miles after the CTS dropped dead. I can just think of a lot better things to do with $36k than spend it on a TSX or CTS. But back to the TSX -- krautninja, you are talking about making the TSX into a TL. Acura needs to do the opposite with the TSX, SHRINK it and make it cheaper, the TL's job is to be an A4/C-class fighter. Also, SH-AWD plays holy hell with your gas mileage; I know, I have an RDX. Adding it to the whole line would be likely subtracting 2-6 MPG from every car. Acura's real problem is that BMW, Mercedes and Lexus have made the $32k-$46k market extremely crowded with lots of really great cars (the IS250 being one of them) and they need to decide whether to be fancy Hondas or to go all the way to luxury cars.

First Audi is one of the only "Premium" Company that can get away with 4cyl or FWD but thats mainly because Their interiors are fantastic and their designs are impressive. Anyone else tryin to follow suit (like acrua) is simply looked as a joke. The remedy? REFURB THE ENTIRE LINE! All Acuras should be offered with the SH AWD. if the TSX is to keep a 4cyl model it should be turbo charged. it should be made slightly bigger to be the 3 series / C class/ A4 competitor. The TL should then become larger with carefull watch to keep it lightweight so that the V6 that Acura insist on keeping will still move the car. The RL needs to be torn down and totally redone from the ground up, since once again honda wont put a V8 they should Turbo Charge the V6 (or twin turbo would be better) keep it competitive with the LS A8 ect. of course they would have to keep the pricing even more competitive for the simple fact they are missing that V8 option in the TL and RL which has become standard and expected of cars in the segment which those cars should be competing in. If honda/acura would take a step back to really think, they can do some impressive things with the engines they have. they just need to stop pussy footing around tryin to stay "affordable" when it comes to the premium segment people know you get what you pay for (usually) and if you build it nice enough people wont mind paying a nice price for it, instead of playing is safe so that they can keep prices low If Honda/ Acura eally wants to make a mark in the world they would do the following.

It is a bit conservative for my taste and needs to have some "edge" to allow it to compete agains the likes of the 3 class leaders I listed above. Also, could use either RWD or AWD.

GOod luck getting 50 thousand miles out of this wreck before needing a new car. Shoulda bought a Cadillac which will go for hundreds of thousands of miles and not have a single problem. GM quality is unbeatable and everyone would rather support GM because it means a healthy America. Buy Import sh1t and kiss this COuntry goodbye Buy American. Buy GM. It is your patriotic duty Nobody drives import sh1t anymore and this Honduh is a complete fail. GOod luck getting 50 thousand miles out of this wreck before needing a new car.

The turbo 4 would have been the more logical pick for the TSX. Still, the TSX did need an alternate powertrain now that Acura completely ruined the look and feel and size of the TL. (AWD and the wagon version of the TSX from Europe would also be appreciated.) I’m echoing here but I thought the same thing. The turbo 4 would have been the more logical pick for the TSX.

Less heavy, more economical and more fun to drive. why doesn’t Acura just retune the 2.4 engine to produce 220 hp, 200 lb of tourque, keep the 6 sp manual, upgrade the tires to 18 and i think we will have a much more exciting car.

I don't like the look of the new acuras. What they should do though, is couple their SH-AWD with a manual transmission like in the TL, because we all know how the TL turned out :) I’m not really liking this.
