View Full Version : Did you know that the new TSX has similar final drive ratios? neit_jnf 11-25-2009, 05:42 PM I know you may not care but I've been car shopping with my sister and found out that the new TSX has 4.77 for the 6sp manual and 4.44 for the 5sp auto in the 201hp 2.4L 4-cyl model. Interesting coincidence? The RX-8 popped right in my mind... http://www.rx8club.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=148614&stc=1&d=1259188540 kvndoom 11-25-2009, 08:43 PM At least the TSX is bearable to look at from the front, unlike the TL. I know that's not your point, but damn, next time someone rags on Mazda's new grills... shazy 11-25-2009, 09:35 PM How much power does the v6 have? 270hp? 911SC 11-26-2009, 09:46 AM At least the TSX is bearable to look at from the front, unlike the TL. I know that's not your point, but damn, next time someone rags on Mazda's new grills... No kidding! I've owned two Legends and now a CL-S. The new Acura look is terrible, not just the front but the rear view of the TL is awful.:dunno: kvndoom 11-26-2009, 04:16 PM How much power does the v6 have? 270hp? 280 ponies and 254 torques (/clarkson) http://www.autoblog.com/2009/09/09/review-2010-acura-tsx-v6-sacrifices-twisties-for-long-haul-crui/ kersh4w 11-26-2009, 08:59 PM they even copied mazdas idea to only put an automatic trans with the v6 model. haha. honda is even copying the stupid ideas. kvndoom 11-27-2009, 09:42 AM they even copied mazdas idea to only put an automatic trans with the v6 model. haha. honda is even copying the stupid ideas. I think you can look to Toyota for the origins of that dumb trend. The Mazda6 is a rip off of the Camry, after all. To Honda's credit, the TL does now come with a 6MT, in AWD trim no less! And the V6 Accord Coupe can be had with a stick. CarAndDriver 11-30-2009, 01:24 PM The new Acuras and Hondas have been hit with the ugly stick. The TSX is tolerable to look at it, esp. compared to the gross TL. |
