Maybe the TL or CL, because you know many importers put the Integra Type R (B18C), Prelude (H Series) and B16s into their Civics and Integras, even the Accord. =D

Dude I totally forgot about that! Potential swap: JDM/UK Accord Type R engine!!

Well, other markets are getting an AWD version with 240hp. We get stuck with this... whoopie, give the Americans less!
Have fun trying to swap a full engine and drivetrain for an ATR... I'm not so sure you'd have an easy time squeezing a 3+ liter V6 in the space of a 2.2-2.4L I4 either.

That grille makes all the Acuras including this potential one look like crap. I like the Mazda 6 and other offerings better.

mazda 6 is significantly larger than the civic. and doesn't look much the same. mazda 6 is probably the same size as this, give or take an inch.

It's a Honda/Acura...what did you expect? Personally, I like it.

Well I drive a 97 Acura CL 3.0. Its not quite so boring. Although it can be a bit odd.

Next car will probably be a WRX or A4. Probably this coming fall.

I like it.... not too bad....

I noticed this in the specs:

Manual: 21/29
Automatic: 22/31


Anybody care to explain why the automatic does better?

Oh my, I am totally underwhelmed by this car. Priced the same as the Accord V6 with a similar look, but fewer features, a smaller, whinier, higher reving V4 engine. I can sum this one up with one word - YICK! If that is your thing, you'd be better off with either the Accord Coupe or the RSX.

looks good specs arnt bad either
