So the TL is a touring sedan born to be on the highway and the RL is a rally sport monster eh?

Dude...Simple common sense would tell you otherwise.

Some of you guys crack me up.

when acura discontinued the LEGEND they came out with the CL TL. i know that CL is Coupe Legend and TL is Touring Legend. Also notice the RSX(2 door)and TSX (4 door)came out once the integra was scapped.

For the love of god, someone close this thread...Its been discussed so many times already.

Its contemporary. Not coupe.

As for the RSX coming out after the integra was "scrapped"... The RSX is known as the integra in Japan. Its just a new version.
