That's what this site says. Can anyone confirm? They also claim that the Inspire will be built in Japan. If this is old news to you people please forgive.

Ummm....

 

I'm confused on what you're trying to get at? Honda inspired will be built in Japan instead of being imported from America (Ohio).....so......you're trying to say this will be 04 TL?

 

Hmmm....according to that site the new Inspire will be built in Japan and not Ohio. I would only assume this could mean that the 2004 TL (its the same car as the Inpsire right?) will not be made in Ohio and instead made in Japan.

New features that I hadn't heard mentioned before and seem really cool are:

1) Having 3 cylinders that shut down and leaving only 3 for highway driving to gain fuel economy

2) Engine will be 3 liter

 

I think that site basically is just telling you that the new TL or Inspire will be out in June, i.e. 2004 model, and it will be made in Japan instead of U.S.

 

I have a hard time beliving anything from a site that his this model listed as a '98:

 

LOL

What's up with that site anyway? Must be owned by some Toyota owner......

 

I think the source of the news must be below,

But now the situation may be changed,
though it's not the confirmed news, in Japan, they say the next InspireiSaver will discontinuejand USDM's Accord will be basically same, modified the front face only(of course, made in US).
The next TL will be for US market only, so, won't be provided in Japan, like CL.

So, as you know, the new acura TSX is almost same at JDM/EURO Accord, the brand will cross between US and Japan.
