#5 of 5068 It's a Sedan by 1wiseguy Jul 30, 2002 (10:47 am)
The RS-X is only offered as a coupe and the TL/CL offers a coupe or sedan. The TSX would fill the void and offer a smaller sedan for those who don't want the size or price of a TL. In canada we have the Acura 1.7EL sedan but it's really just a US Civic EX.

It's bigger than the old Integra sedan. Like I said above, it basically fills same position in the lineup as the old Vigor or the 2.5TL, not the Integra. Remember when Acura had both the 2.5TL and the 3.2TL? It will be priced between the RSX and the TL.
#7 of 5068 TSX size... by ickes_mobile Jul 30, 2002 (1:06 pm)
The UK mag has info from a Honda source saying the new car would be about the size of the current Euro Accord. This would make the TSX about the same length and width as the VW Passat. Or, about 1/2 a size smaller than the '02 or '03 NA Accord and sandwitched neatly between the Integra sedan and the Vigor/TL ranges.
#8 of 5068 TSX = entry-level sports sedan by verozahl Jul 30, 2002 (9:15 pm)
from Acura. Put that in your pipe and smoke it! Now explain to me why you really really need to go to BMW?

Rumor is that European/JDM Accord will be imported as Acura TSX. This means... the car is smaller than the American Accord, and very likely, much sportier, especially if Honda decided to bring the sportiest trim (with features ofcourse). In Europe, the rumored engine choices are, 2.0 liter I-4 160 HP (same as base RSX) 2.4 liter I-4 180 HP 2.4 liter I-4 250 HP (AWD gasoline-electric hybrid and ATR replacement?) 2.2 liter I-4 140 HP/245 lb.-ft Common rail turbo diesel (Honda's first in house diesel engine)   And no, this won't be the TL replacement.
#10 of 5068 This sounds familiar by shades80 Jul 31, 2002 (7:32 am)
4 door, compact sports sedan..coming in a few mos...its the saab 9-3 right..sounds like honda and saab want the same niche market(high output 4's)...now wouldnt this be the same market as the is 300? So if you are intersted in this car wouldnt an inline 6 with more power be superior? but nobody is buying the IS ..thoughts?

I see new IS300s... but I won't be buying one. Too dang expensive! They should bring the Altezza over as the IS200 with a 2.0L I4. For the price of a IS300, I'm saving dimes to upgrade to a BMW 3-Series.   Acura TSX has a good chance, wouldn't you say, of taking this segment? I mean, just like how the RSX owns the sport coupe/fastback segment.
#12 of 5068 The IS300... by ickes_mobile Jul 31, 2002 (8:24 am)
does seem overpriced. It's really small, even compared to the 3-series and A4. It's interior is also more Toyota than Lexus. The GS shows that Lexus can build a luxurious interior that is still sporting comparted against the LS and ES.
#13 of 5068 my hope by jjman Jul 31, 2002 (12:57 pm)
is that the TSX has as good if not better interior as the honda accord which now looks very luxurious. sitting in a honda should invoke much more emotion than before and will defintely be not be blah like a toyota
#14 of 5068 2003 Saab 9-3 by shades80 Jul 31, 2002 (1:27 pm)
Well what about the new 9-3..isnt this the exact car the TSX is going against..except saab with be turbo so better low end torque...Honda has to turbo/super charge this engine to achieve the same torque as the saab...i think the smallest turbo on the saab will be 175hp/202torque...can honda match or beat that? ps...03 saab will have eliminated torque steer...per the reviews..
