Default TSX

Here is some new information about the new 2009 TSX. The front end is fairly upright, but this is dictated by Europe's pedestrian collison rules.

I agree. I was just reading that hyundai will have a V8 our in that new car of theirs. Goes to prove complete BS we have read for the past 20 years about it being to expensive for Honda to roll out a V8. Complete BS. I've always liked the TSX but I dont want a 4 banger FWD luxury car. HONDA CONTINUES TO FAIL!

That's not a car that should be sold by an aspiring premium auto maker. If they want to sell the Euro Accord here, fine; just badge it as a Honda.

Personally, I like the idea of the TSX with a four banger- some people liek me want the refinement of the upscale makes but without the maitenace of a 6 or 8 cylinder with a ton of electronics.

Even the IS250 is RWD or AWD with a 6 speed avaliable.

Sad part is, at least the IS250 is RWD and looks the part of a entry luxury/sport sedan.. The TSX still looks like a Honda with more chrome. =\
