ALl your favorite cars + new ones.. all RESTYLED

Acura:
RSX - The RSX is getting a reskinning for the 2004 model year, folowed by a completely new body for 2006.
TSX - Acura will posisition this less-expensive sedan below the TL. Its most likely that the european "R" spec accord will be sold here under the Acura TSX moniker.
CL and TL - AWD will be offered for the 2004 Model year, and while keeping up with BMWs 3 series, it will get a BHP increase to 280.

Hmm... I wonder what engines they'll use in the new TSX. The only one that has the K20A DC5R engine is the EuroR. Perhaps that will be our Type R in the states? (I bet they'll call it a Type S since it's Acura.) I wonder...

This isn't meant to be a flame, insult, or whatever you wanna call it, but it seems that Joe ALWAYS has something to post. Everything from the most insane mods on cars that we've ever seen, right to the specs on every car we would wanna know about. I'm just curious to know how much of his time is spent on his computer??? Once again, this is NOT a flame, just a question. so Joe, if you get this, enlighten me, please! Thanx.
i agree on the fact that its not attracting that much young buyers
mainly cuz of the fact that swapping cost more for our cars
and there is barely enough aftermarket support cuz of our engines dont produce as much as we like
