Will the interior look like an Accord with some fake wood trim thrown in?
Or will we finally see a new interior design direction for Acura?

huh? I thought the 2.4 liter was supposed to be a new power plant, turbocharged one. Did I miss something?

I think they said it's just N/A 4 cylinder. Well, it's a new one but still N/A 4 cylinder. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I talk to the owner of Valley motors here in Salem. He owns both Mercedes and the Acura dealership in Salem. He said they could use the turbo 4 they have in the Euro civic type r.

My dad's friend's son's cousin said he may be able to swap the new NSX engine in the TLX too.

Also:
Consumer Reports April Issue ('Coming Soon" pg. 49) "...the sedan will be offered with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine or a V6..."
Food for thought boys! ...let's hear it.

Well you quoted a speculative post from Temple of VTEC and Consumer Reports.
Do you have any facts?

I spoke with Jane Fonda, who ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda and she said there will be a turbo-6 with an electric supercharger for torque fill. 400hp for the TLX and that is on 87 octane gas and an 11.7 second 1/4 on emergency spare donuts.

But what about the tires? Aerodynamic side mirrors?

I'm thinking Consumer Reports is wrong given that everything Acura has said since the day they unveiled the concept is that the 4-cyl will be NA.

Bring a Type S and don't wait for the MMC
eSH-AWD hybrid power plant 30mpg combined, low 13s in the quarter, competitive handling, 350-370+hp there you go.

Agreed, turbo 4 in the base TLX makes no sense since it will be bumping up against the almighty powah of the Earth Dreams 3.5.

We have reached a new low: People posting from Consumer Reports....as if CR had any credibility whatsoever.

I don't doubt that the Civic Type R's 2.0T engine will fit the TLX. But that's not happening this year. Acura stated many times that at launch, it will be 2.4 I4 and 3.5 V6. A detuned version of the 2.0T might come with around 250hp and slot in between the 2.4 I4 and 3.5 V6 in the future.

It started with the Canadian TSX back in 2009 (if you don't count the Canadian only CSX, EL, and the old RSX). And I believe 2013 ILX base also did not have leather seats.

Base model Integras, Legends, Vigors, RSX's and the 1st gen 2.5 TL had cloth seats.

Leatherette has come a long way, while some of the leather that passes for "leather" seats is absolutely horrible stuff...that barely covers two seating surfaces.

Recently we learned how much profit Porsche makes per car. I wonder how much Honda makes at this price. For example you can get $10k off the FWD RLX but I bet they are not taking a loss.

Check out their contest to win a TLX, then review the fine print.
It also jives with what I've been told, that the top tier TLX will be just under $50k.
