Anybody have any info on the new Acura sedan? It is suppose to be a pure performance sedan that will fit between the RSX and the TLS. Just wondered if it share any components with our beloved little S. It will be unveiled at the Detroit auto show later this month.

Somebody has described it as a four-door Prelude. I wonder how much it'll weigh?

the conservative power output is disappointing. i don't think this sedan has any chance against it's competitors unless it's priced much lower than the rest.

I dream of S

there are rumors that the 6-speed V6 will be available as well. just like in JDM land.

Heh heh...a lady who was trying to sell me her S told me it was based on the Civic/RSX chassis

I ended up buying from someone else...
