Thumbs up It's official TL-S debuts Jan '01@N. American Auto Show

Acura to introduce new sports coupe (12/7/2000)


Acura will debut its RS-X prototype, a new sports coupe model, at the 2001 North American Auto Show in January. Acura will also unveil its model year 2002 3.2 TL sedan, featuring updated styling and an all-new, high performance, Type S model.

Featuring a bold new look and advanced engine technology, the RS-X prototype provides consumers with an early glimpse of an all-new Acura production vehicle coming later in the 2001 calender year. The new model will serve as the replacement for the Integra in Acura's growing line of performance-minded luxury vehicles.

The three-door, four-passenger RS-X combines aggressive styling, exceptional aerodynamics and a wide, muscular stance. Exterior styling highlights include extremely short front and rear overhangs, slim A- and B- pillars, and a sharply-chiseled front fascia featuring Acura's signature five-sided grille flanked by large, four-lamp headlights. The production version of the RS-X will also be the first model in North America to be powered by the company's next-generation series engine with i-VTEC technology

The high performance 3.2 TL Type S boasts 260 horsepower--the highest output of any vehicle in its class.

Additional details on the RS-X prototype and the 3.2 TL Type S will be announced on Jan. 8 at the North American Auto Show.

Snook789. Where the heck is that TL-S news you posted?? It was not on the Acura-tl.com home page when I logged in.

In any case this is exciting news. Finally, official confirmation of the TL-S!
