The only resons that can come to mind are: Non-tech or maybe canadian TSX?

I have a 2010 TSX V6 Tech and it has manual lumbar. Unless the newer ones have something different, and I haven't heard anything about that, I'm guessing they're all manually adjusted.

Up to getting my TSX last month i thought all Hondas had dispensed with manual lumbar adjustment around 2007/2008. Strange the TSX still has it. Still, at least it does have it...it saves weight....

canadian Civic EXLs have power seats but no lumbar adjustment at all. How important that is really depends on seat design - its like if you have decent loudspeakers you don't need bass and treble controls.....but of course personal preference/back shape still comes into it.

the one i test drove was just not comfortable to me. i started to adjust but found the manual lumbar not for me or my lower back. im surprised they don't have same seats as my tl. guess they spent thousands on engineering and design for each model instead of just using the same seat design. It was like that when i worked for volvo. we would have a great seat design then the next model they would invest who knows how much to design seat for the next model and it was no better or even worse than the previous design.
