Knowing Honda/Acura, I highly doubt if the TLX will produce anything more than 365 HP.
I don’t mind at all, as far as the overall package is good. The Q50 with 400 HP doesn’t sell... so HP is not everything. May be 1% of buyers want that HP number to be 400, 500 and etc. |
I also agree that it will prob be around 360 but that doesn’t bother me if it looks good, has apple car play, and interior is quality. I just hope it doesn’t have that stupid auto start and stop or at least it has a way to keep it off without turning it off each time you start the car.
My plan is to evaluate a newer used car vs my current type s (at which I’ll have 15 years of ownership by then) in 2023, enough time to see bugs get fixed and general feedback on any newer cars. I’m hoping my two options at that point are a used tlx type s or a used gsf |
The 255hp 2.0T automatic accord is hitting 100mph trap speeds with 0-60 times in the mid 5’s.
That said, if the TLX type-S is ONLY 360 HP I bet it still gets out of its own way just fine. |

Turbo -> tune, 450+ hp and enough torque to spin the earth backwards. 2.0T with a tune and downpipe already can roast the tires at 30mph starting speed.

I see it in page 1.
Didn't even notice that, haha. Found it on Google. |
The spy shots of the new TLX look really similar to the pictures found in the RDX infotainment. Looks like we definitely did see the final production vehicle. We just won't know how the final tail lights look since the pictures in the infotainment doesn't include rear turn indicators or reverse lights.

Based on the initial leaked pictures, that’s the car. |
I like both designs. They should come out asap. Acura needs some momentum after the smash hit RDX.

I think RDX success is beyond amazing. Now Acura needs to carry that success and buzz with the new MDX and or TLX. 2020 is going to be huge for Honda/Acura. |

Currently, the RDX is up 4.3% YTD over last year. The old ILX is up 31.6% and the expensive NSX is up 67.6%. Heck, even the oddball Ridgeline is up 5.1%! If I had to apply the phrase "beyond amazing" to a model's success, it certainly wouldn't be to the RDX. :) |

The previous generation RDX sold around 51-52K units/year from 2015 to 2017. Sales in 2018 were 63K - possibly due to discounts on the 2018's and initial interest in the all-new 2019. Unless they can pull a stronger Q4, they're on track to sell around 61K RDX's in 2019.

Also, it’s first year model and got some issues. The previous model was bulletproof and much cheaper. Therefore it was selling well. I know the last RDX is an amazing car, but the sell would have slowed down by now. Also, compare RDX to QX50. Both vehicles came to the market at the same time. RDX sells 3 times more than the QX50. This is success to me at least :) |
i have searched this forum for possible previous posting, but are the current RDX background pics available?
Could you post 2019/20 RDX pictures if possible? Thanks. I also "googled" it to no avail. |
