As for people wanting A-spec wheels on the TL, yeah I guess I can see that for people that are not into cars. But again 9.9 out of 10 people that are into cars are going to spend the outrageous price Acura charges for those and get some very nice after market wheels. Who wants Acura made wheels anyway?

And yes I used to have a link to the press release from Acura USA explaining why they are dropping the RSX. It is because they want to take the line “upscale”. The new Civic-Si/Typre-R is the replacement for the RSX. This is fine by me because I think it was stupid to ever have the Integra in the Acura line in the first place. It should have been under the Honda badge. And it was also stupid to change the name to RSX, Integra is much better. Anyway I’m getting ready to sell my RSX, I’ve done the FWD thing and am tired of it. I have no interest in any FWD cars anymore. I don’t understand why Honda is not putting there “SH-AWD” in more cars. If they would put in on the TSX and/or TL i might have an interest in those cars again.

P.S. American TSX = Euro Accord
American Accord = Japanese Inspire
American TL = ???

Honda makes too many FWD/4 doors!!!!

American RL = a way too heavy and over priced waist of technology
Nope A-spec doesn't do a damn thing to the interior, if you buy the full A-spec asa package you get new wheels, brakes, suspension, and body kit. And ALL Acura wheels are Enkei wheels.

The SH-AWD is next appearing in the RDX and new MDX and rumors are saying it may be in the next TL 07 or 08... And the RL is the Legend in Japan. The TL is a North American Only car that isn't available overseas. The MDX is available overseas as a Honda MDX.
