ill be disappointed in those figures. They are pimping this new honda DTEC gen diesel spec, but Mazda is already knocking out 350nm in a 2lt diesel mazda 3 and BMW have a 130kw 400nm sport diesel already in europe.
That being said honda do normally aim for the best emmisisons over outright power.
i think the current model is soo perfect... love the exterior looks of it...
That's absolutely right. Can't compare the current exterior styling.Quote:

it doesnt looks good.
maybe inside change alot and looks nice.
but the outside is too "big"~~~~~
also........the muffler just like the old version Mazda 6!?
small and nothing have sport feeling.
Anyone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe its the 2.0L that gets the "small" exhaust. I think the 2.4L has something like this; http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/attachm...5&d=1210584964Quote:

One would expect the same overall diameter as you say. In which case it should fit but it might protrude more if the rim is wider.Quote:

But in hondas defence it because it exceeds the Euro VI standards for emissions which is fantastic, using the ammonia recovery system honda developed. Very high tech.
regardless of all this it comes down to how the diesel drives...
I dunno if i can come off my 7600 rpm limit and drop to a 4000rpm one!
