Thats a powerfull car with a very nice design.
i personally like it bvery much

Wow nice cars! The new model looks great. The design is cool and specification is just perfect. I personally prefer the manual 6speed.

I gotta say, I think the new tsx is pretty ugly. It's way to goddy looking and I won't even get close to it. The body style on the older one's is much better.

Oh yeah, and no turbo!!!??? WTF!

haha yea no kidding! I totally agree, I might consider it if there was a turbo or supercharger but its really got nothin! :)
