Well then get to it! We need to increase Honda's take-home pay from 60,000 to 100,000 units so we can get the Acura brand. Hang-on a minute, would that mean the Euro would be renamed the TSX?Quote:

The TL is a different chassis; based on the American Honda Accord. It is not from the same family as the TSX/Euro. I don't think that sort of marketing will work because Acura has to have snob value to sell. No Acura buyer would want a cheaper Honda version of the same car in the same market, no matter what the differences in equipment.Quote:

It's better that the standard version now gets 17 inch otherwise 16 inch would look far too puny for a grown up Euro :D
