Lets hope this comes to Australia!!

The engine is a cracker, and this is a smart move by Honda. Although would it be hard to sell alongside the normal Accord here?

Good work

Accord Euro V6

Wow that is surprising...I doubt it would come to Australia, wouldnt make sense competing with the Honda Accord. At least there, its two "seperate" brands.

Honda moving toward little cheap cars.

208kW, auto gearbox, no LSD, FWD.... Um, no thanks? The weight distribution would be worse than the already front-heavy 2.4L Euro.

I would prefer this:

They make a cool Honda Zest with a 660cc engine.

I think this would be a great car to drive - but why does honda persist with only a 5 speed auto? Innovation in Honda seems to be falling behind other manufacturers.

True but Subaru are still persisting with 4 speed autos in their Imprezza and their lower end Libertys.Also still only 5 speed manuals!!!.That's just a joke.

At least it is a manual. This TSX V6 comes only in auto. On the vtec.net site, ppl are already complaining about the auto only and lack of SH-AWD. Makes it no better than the Accord V6, which is a very good car now unlike the previous gen which was much softer in handling.
