Do ANY 2nd gen TSX come in red??

I just realized throughout the history of honda/acura cars, there has always been some red civic or integra with white rims which to me looks sexy. however i havent seen any 2nd gen tsx with milano red, just that maroon color.
what gives??

no milano red with the 2nd gen tsx. The 09 basque red (I think that what it is) was the only year that offered it with manual transmission. The '10 and '11in that color only come with automatic. My plans to replace my 06 tsx with the '11 tsx have changed because of this. I will be keeping my MR tsx

No love for maroon Russel

Actually the Euro Accord models have Milano red as an option. Sadly it is not available in North America.

That bright red one is NICE looking. I have a Basque Red '11 TSX, and it is a deep burgundy, which I also love. When I was buying last month, the dealer said many people in North America don't think a brightly colored car is luxurious (after he told me there were zero Vortex Blue TSX's within 100 miles of me).

I think that is a silly thought by Acura/dealerships. That milano red bad boy above looks looks luxurious as hell! Besides, I see red mercedes and BMWs all the time, which seem to be the most commonly thought of brands when people think luxury in this country.

Modulo Grill, Mugen Spoiler.

That red isn't the same as the Australian Milano Red, though it may be the lighting...
