Any chance we see it in the 2005 model year? Just curious what everyone here thinks? This feature (or lack of it) might very well be a deal breaker on whether I purchase a TSX (or some other sports sedan) in about 8-10 months. Sad but true...

 

If a TSX has all the amenities of a TL then it doesnt really have a place. I think things like this, and the Navigation controlled climate control will stay with the TL.

 

Even the passanger power seat will not come to TSX in the future year IMO. That's how they can save some money.

 

I'm not wanting nor did I request that the TSX have ALL the amenities of a TL -- all I really want is memory function on the drivers seat for the TSX. That change would add no more than $25 to the cost of each car. Futhermore, the main thing that separates the TSX and TL is the really engine (and not the amenities). BTW, I could case less about getting a power passenger seat as it would only needlessly add weight to the car.

 

Can anyone explain to me what "Navigation controlled climate control " means? I thought on the TSX you can control the climate control from the navi?

 

I was referring to:

3D SOLAR SENSING

Using an integrated Global Positioning System (GPS), 3D Solar Sensing works with the Acura Navigation System to determine the location of the sun, relative to driver and passenger, and adjusts dual climate settings to accommodate them, ensuring that the cabin temperature remains at your preferred setting. Available only on models with the Acura Navigation System.

Never would I have thought I needed this, but I guess that is the definition of PIMP.

 

I wish they kept the CL

 

when you drive south, it gets warmer

when you drive north, it gets colder

More effective with the windows open and AC off. Standard with all cars.

 

Too heavy, too bland, too many produced. While I liked the car it need more of an edge (the front was lacking especially when they did away w/ the driving lamps). I'm guessing that Acura is looking at the G35c to see if their sales remain steady or increase. I'm not sure in anybody elses area but here in Wichita there are several G35c's in all kinds of colors and options.

A coupe is needed if only for a halo car. One that has a sense of style to it. Have you seen autospies pics of a possible VW hardtop coupe. That type of style is what Acura is needing. I even hear Volvo's next coupe will be a looker.

 

Isn't that the NSX? If they bothered to update it and kept the price it was introduced at $80k (cdn).

 

Leave that crazy 3D Solar Sensing feature on the TL and just give the TSX a couple memory settings for the drivers seat!
