New York Auto Show. Closer ever day

The New York Times published this article focusing on a few anticipated models.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/16/au...w/16SHOW.html?

Two interesting points I saw:
1. They describe the engine as a "turbocharged 4 with 201 horsepower", implying this is the only model choice and no mention of the fact it's a diesel.
2. The publish date says "March 16, 2008". Thought that was kind of odd considering today's the 15th

BTW I am in no way taking the article's implication as fact; I just thought it was interesting. Can't wait for the Auto Show.

Nice article, the picture of the that car/truck on the top made me chuckle. I believe that the turbo-charged 4 is a mis-print or just bad information on part of the editor. Either they know advanced information or their just being careless. Acura even said themselves that it's still NA. Another site was claiming a 6 speed automatic.

Careless I tell ya.

Duh, it is the New York Times we're talking about. They screw up on the big stories too, and now we're more accurate on this site...
