Performance Stats from UK

[Ray]

Euro Accord in uk is
ENGINE - 190hp@162

0-62mph(100kph) - Man. - 7.9, Auto - 9.0

This is not good. The base RSX is faster than this.

[GT-40MarkIV]

Yeah....I'd take an RSX anyday over an Accord. Plus I have to say the Accord is a nice Lux car, but would I ever buy it for speed...no.
Over in Europe I'd go Vauxhall Vectra or Toyota Camry, before I'd go Accord.

[Ray]

If the TSX comes out with a type S (240Hp v6) i would for sure take it over a rsx type S :D

[GT-40MarkIV]

True that! I'd have to see a comparo first though...I really like the RSX, and Love the Integra...ahhhh....Integra!

[Ray]

same exact thing is heppening now like the integra 4 door and 2 door now we have rsx for 2 door and tsx for 4 door..

Personally i like having a 4 door sports sadan over a 2 door hard to fit over 2 people in car :D

[GT-40MarkIV]

Yeah that's why my second favourite car is the BMW M5..It's a sedan that can run....

TSX seems to be going towards that thought too! I like Honda's ventures the past couple of years, everything except the Civic SI.
I don't know what they were thinking there:confused:

[Ray]

I think they will be changing the look of the new Si it really is ugly one..

As far as the BMW Vs Acura

almost imposible to compare yet because bimmer will be better in many ways its only for people who have deeper pockets :D

The acura is aiming in the right direction if they keep moving with better suspension and better engine they may get in the bimmer lovers market some day.. ;)

my 2 cents

[ralco]

i find the (civic si) ugly but for some reason it sells:confused: :confused: :confused:

[GT-40MarkIV]

It sells cause it's cheap for the performance, and the TSX will sell cause (To me) it seems to have a good basis to build on.

[Ray]

i dont understand why acura couldnt make it a v6 i mean all other competitors have v6 on their 4 door sports sadan.. i guess thats the only way acura ****ed up if they made it 220hp v6 and then an S type of 240Hp they would of steal almost all sales from nissan (maxima) honda (accord) lexus and many others.. :) wouldnt u agree?

[GT-40MarkIV]

Yeah...that's true, they're just being considerate towards the other car companies out there, that can't handle losing.:D

[rAiN]

too much insurance for 17 year old

[Ray]

ah well that sux :(

[AC TL]

you gotta remember the euro accord is a 2.0 liter....the one we are gettins is 2.4...and acura claims its a tuned down s2000 engine...im thinking 0-60 will be in the mid 7's for automatic and early 7's late 6's for the 6 speed

[lovemyaccord]

My guess will be 8 secs. for automatic and I hear around 7.2 for the manual!

[6 spEed TSX]

i sayy high 6's low 7's for the 6 speed, and a sec slower on the auto.....
