V6 TSX?

[YO]

The word on the street is that Acura is putting the J35 in the 2010 TSX... will that change the game.

[Laconian]

Why would it change anything? The engine is one of the things that Honda got right on that car. They could "change the game" by simply taking off that ridiculous grille!

[MX793]

IMO, it's a bit much engine for a car that size unless that's for the S trim.  If they were to put a V6 in a non-S TSX, I'd like to see them stick to something smaller.  A rev happy, 2.5-3.0L motor with 220-240 hp.

[the Teuton]

I was kinda pulling for the RDX's 2.4 Turbo engine, but a nose-heavy V6 will do, I guess.

Terbow 4 > 3.5L V6

I don't think it'll make too much of a difference. Honda's motors aren't exactly heavy.

[sportyaccordy]

????????????????????????

They have the TL, and the Accord

The turbo 4 makes the most sense but the TSX is not the driver's car it once was. I don't see the point

[CALL_911]

That would make it a TL which would in turn make it shit.

I like the TSX as it is. I wouldn't mind the RDX motor in it, however.

CL9>>>CU2.

RDX motor in the CL9 = all I need

yessir.

I really like the CL9. It handles well, is economical, looks good, and is fun to drive. Has a decent stereo too.

I don't know about the CU2, but it's not anywhere as good looking. Even then, it's still the best looking car in Acura's lineup. By far.

[Raza]

How about the FU2 MFRS version? 

What the fuck are you talking about?  Use real words and names.  Not everyone here cares enough about boring Acuras to memorize the fucking chassis codes.

1. I don't want to keep using 1st generation TSX and 2nd generation TSX all the time. That gets annoying.
2. If you cared so fucking much, why didn't you just Google the terms?

The CL9 is the first gen TSX, the CU2 is the second gen.

I don't fucking care.  And what's annoying is trying to read your damn alphabet soup and make sense of it.

U care enough to cry about people caring enough... that seems even more of a waste of time

Then use model years.

Agreed on the bigger 4

Another suggestion i agree with. The V6 may be the WORSE choice to up the power in the TSX

A turbo 4 would be awesome, yet require AWD to realize it's full potential(and eliminate possible torque steer and traction issues). A higher reving high HP 4 like MX suggested would have more managable torque and still allow the car to maintain it's FWD configuration.

[YO]

as an enthusiast... 2.3 Turbo all the way... it would make me giddy

as a business man... V6 better suits the luxury market

As an enthusiast the turbo in a fwd tsx would suck balls.

As a business man i'll buy a mercedes E class.

[YO]

working for both companies this year, I'd take the TSX...

Any reason?

Don't get me wrong, I like the TSX. I just can't understand why you would ever take what is essentially an Accord over an E-Class.

An E-Class is essentially a Camry?

[CALL_911]

In that case, your car's essentially a Cozy Coupe.



How does that make any sense?

HEY, AT LEAST THAT KID IS HAVING FUN DRIVING! NOT LIKE A  CAMR-E-CLASS

That kid would be making a sound bet if he took you for pinks with your Metro.

I do not know what you are talking about. I do not own, nor have I ever driven a Metro.

[Vinsanity]

It's a damn Metro. "Swift" is too ironic of a name for that car.

It's a Suzuki Swift. It says so on the trunklid, the owners manual, and the registration.

[Tave]

My friend needed some help picking up a car one day.

Unbeknowenst to me, it was a damaged Metro with no license plates.

I had to drive it, eh, about 40 miles across the Phoenix interstates.

Man was that an adventure.
