TSX recognized for leading new Acura style

[CaMIRO]

Finally - a little recognition for the TSX, which should herald a new era for Acura design. The wedge shape has been re-defined in a way that makes simplicity thoughtful.

They reviewed the TL Concept at NYIAS 2003, too: Link to TL Concept article. The connection with the TSX is obvious.

That's some funny shit, " should herald a new era for Acura design". Dude it's an expensive ass HONDA design aka Accord.

Duh. That's what I just said. The reason that Honda does it is because snobby Americans just can't see paying a substantial amount of money for a car that has the same emblem as a cheap ass Civic so Honda mods their emblem and changes the name to Acura and BAM an new LUXURY vehicle with the price tag to match. Go to " Acura " to buy parts and what does the package say? HONDA

Honda - Acura
Nissan - Infinity
Toyota - Lexus

I believe it all to be the same in anything...there are always two different versions of the same thing (sometime even more than just two)...it's just what people are willing and able to spend on what they think is quality.

I actually drove the TSX this Saturday and it was very nice (6-speed manual i-VTEC) ...Nothing like the new accord but a bit like the older accord (2000) type.

To each their own and everyone's style is different...
