What is the Acura MAV?
For 2003 MotorTrend is noting:
2003 Acura TL: Redesign.
2003 Acura MAV: Displacement bumped, likely to 3.8 liters.
2003 Acura NSX: Japanese super car may receive a V-8 engine.
____________________________________________
What the hell is the MAV? I like the bump in displacement though. Do they mean the MDX?

Just got through reading about it. WOW!! I think I'm giving up my SAAB fetish for one. I didn't really dig that styling until I saw the MAV!

OK so if the MAV is the MDX and it gets a bump in displacement from 3.5 to 3.8 liters, the rumored V8 makes little sense. Or that means that the V8 will be out 2 years from now and now next year. Hmmm...I wonder.
OK guesses for 3.8 liter HP and Torque ratings?
I say, 260HP and 265 lb-ft. What do you say?
