...i just got the new scc mag Tiburon was pick one of the "great eight ride" rated 148hp & 161 ld-ft at the wheels and the RSX was rated 168hp & 122 LB-ft at wheels... its really heavy 3023lbs...i dont really like fwd v6 but i like FTO ..i guess its its acceptable. i still pref on the 1st gen tiburons.

it looks like scc mag made an error on the specs sheet on the tiburon a mix up on the wheels torque148 and hp161 when the dyno chart says 148hp /161 torque...who`s goin to tell them?

The new Tibby's do look unique, I saw a silver V6 equiped coupe today. It really didn't impress me that much, but still, it seems like an ok ride.

2.7 L and 180 hp is pretty respectable. to put it to respective, the 3.0L v6 accord is 200 hp, and thats with SOHC VTEC.

dont compare the tiburon's engine to a highly tunned 4 cylinder thats pumping high *** compression, and equipped with other things like variable valve timing.

plastic? you people haven't seen a lot of engine bays before huh? pop open the hood of any mercedes-benz.. and you'll see the engines much like that. most bigger cylinder engine bays are like that.

the 3.0L v6 accord's engine bay look is completely different to its 4 cylinder counter part..
I dont understand you guys complaining about that. it actually makes things look neater and more refine in the engine bay.

compare our 7th gen engine bay with previous gen. you see more plastic coverings too. (ie: plastic valve cover compare to previous gen, which didn't have any.)

Is that the same V6 that is locking up in their SUV's???
