Changes for 06 by ateixeira

So, what are the changes for the 06 Acuras?
 
06 Legacy got a reinforced structure and got the Gold award for the IIHS. The only other mid-size to match the overall safety is the Saab 9-3, so kudos to them for the improvement.
 
NAV is also an option, finally.
 
What about the Acuras? Any significant changes?

The TSX got some cosmetic changes and the hp bumped up to 205.

The TSX gets Bluetooth, memory seats, reworked gauges, auxiliary output (MP3 capable), ~10 HP bump in power, reworked front fascia (now has integrated fog lights), taillights and side skirts, and new wheels.
 
Folks, feel free to jump in if I missed anything. I think that's all of it.

Real world HP will likely work out to be closer to 10 than 5 HP. The new SAE standards account for the seeming discrepancy.
 
The early returns on the '06 TSX are that the power boost is definitely noticeable on the butt dyno. Some also claim that build quality is even better than '04-'05's, though I would think this remains to be seen. The cars are brand-new, after all. All this is coming from owners who traded '04-'05 TSX's for '06's.
 
Hopefully, any rattle issues have been resolved. I've even heard the throttle tip-in/lag issue has been addressed.

Yep, on Accords, too.
 
BT is cool, your NAV can use your phone to make a call to a number stored in the points-of-interest.

I think it is auxiliary INPUT.

How did I let it go... by mhattrup

My local subie dealer had a 2005 GT languishing on its lot with and MSRP of ~$27,500 and with a posted price reduced to ~$23,000 (OK its not the Limited but it still had a leather steering wheel and shift knob so the surfaces that get the most use felt upscale:-) and it had all that intoxicating power and tight handling. I procrastinated too long and now it's gone... I don't know if I'll ever see a price performance ratio like that again... I've heard of post purchase dissonance but never non-purchase dissonance!

You can still get that .....at your local Ford dealer with a Mustang GT.
