Everyone knows that the US Acura TSX = Euro Honda Accord.

Well, Honda just released the new Euro Honda Accord at the Geneva Show today.

PICS Here!

Why oh why does Honda not give the TSX SH-AWD + the turbo engine from the RDX?

I think I might indeed buy that if they did!

front styling is a little less 'meh' than the new US accord.

when is that diesel making its way over here?

That wagon looks pretty sexy. I'd have a tough choice deciding between that and the mazda 6 wagon with the likely 5+k price difference. Too bad I'll never have to make that choice.

from the side view it looks like the current TL

I actually like the looks of the current car better.

i heard the 2010 being when they will have the turbos in them as a option. I didn't read about anything on the SH drive. i figure they should go hand in hand to keep up with others.

i'm not as impressed as I hoped I would be... The Infiniti G series is really catching my eye much more...

It looks like the old TSX in a silly body kit. I wouldn't call this car new, but updated.

The front end looks too tall for the rest of the body. Some bigger wheels would change the look a lot. A powerful engine would make it look better too. 197hp is not enough for a car this size.

Because then it'd take away sales from the TL. Approaching the same price range, (if not higher) approx same performance.

I'd just wait for the next gen TL. Seriously, they didn't even offer anything better than the paltry 2.4 I4? (Same K24 block in the Accords, with different heads and a few other minor upgrades) A dissapointment if you ask me. (And I'm a Honda fanboi)

I love Acuras too but they really need to make some engine or performance changes to their cars. I humbly await the new '09 TL and whenever the new NSX is coming out. They make a V6 Accord why not throw that and maybe the AWD in the TSX?
