The sides Look like a Malibu or Aura.

From that angle it seems similar to the Altima. I'll take the current TSX, thank you.

Where's the wagon version we saw the other day?

Still in Europe, where it's likely to stay, as it has in the past.

The sides look like a Malibu because Malibu copied the sides from the TL.
The giant shield grille looks much better in this application than on RL.

I agree wholeheartedly, Louis. Can't wait to see the interior.

I like the styling.
If "It looks like brandX" is the most intelligent comment to be made about styling then it is best left unsaid.

Cool interior. I really like the swoops! Too bad that new nose is a disaster.

Looks like my 06 will be holding its value well.

This gives me an idea: If we can get the Euro Accord as the Acura TSX, then could we get the Euro Civic (Type-R) as the new Acura RSX? Okay, Honda would probably be stepping on the toes of its own Civic Si, and the torsion beam would actually make the handling worse than the Honda. But come on! Just look at it!

Certainly the best Honda design I've seen recently (compared to the new RL and Pilot concept), but I do wish they tried to do something a little more radical.

I'm glad the grille looks better than the RL's. It doesn't exactly have bold styling but it looks good.
Ditto on that awesome interior! I wish more cars would have that trim that just curves to the center!

First off, the grille looks much better than I had feared it would. I still think the current model looks far better.
The interior looks good, but not really any better than what's out now. And what's with the flying butresses around the center console?
Finally, that wagon looks dated. It looks a full generation behind the sedan.

I like it. I'm iffy on the shield though... I'm pretty sure many people will swap for JDM grills. I hope they bring the tourer. I think Wagons can make a comeback! Especially since the last honda wagon was the 1997 Accord...
Anyone else think honda should make a new 5cyl? A 2.5-3.5l 200+hp 5cyl engine that can be used in the CRV, TSX, Element,and possibly the RDX. I say about 220hp 190lbs ft 5cyl engine. Kind of a Throwback to the 2.5TL and Vigor.
I think it would be a better standard engine than the 2.4 in both the Element and CR-V. More Power and similar MPG. in 1991-1998, the 2.5l I5 made 170hp and got 18/26 mpg by 2008s standard.
Just a thought.... I love that off key 5CYL growl...

autoboy - You're right about the power. That's something that the TSX has always lacked in my mind. I'm not sure about a 5-cyl, but the turbo four from the RDX would be a nice addition. That engine would give the TSX the low-down torque that would help it to really compete with the GLI.
PS - Does anyone else really dig the gauges? I'm loving the 3-D look.

I like it. It's evolutionary, but well executed, and the TSX looks better than the Accord, as it should.
The interior also looks good, especially those seats and the swoopy dash.
