Honda/Acura North America has asked me to give them some imput in regards to their new TL-Type S. If you have anything to say, post it and ill forward them your views.
S-TO-8K said:Share with them that SH 4WD would be a welcome option for this model along with 300+hp.
NetViper said:My 2 cents.
1) AWD
2) 300+ HP
3) 6-speed auto
4) Less interior noise on hiway.
5) Better build quality.
Yep, and why the GS was in front of the TL and the RL when we were looking at sedans.EIFFEL said:Sounds like 2007 LEXUS GS350 AWD.

Ben said:- Built in Japan
- Coupe option available
- 6-Speed Manual option available
- R/AWD w/min 300hp
- If it must be FWD, then longitudinal engine orientation, no more than 3200lbs w/ 270hp engine (to prevent torque steer)
- not based on U.S. Accord platform (either Euro Accord or Legend platform)
- interior materials and build quailty more on par with Legend rather than US Accord)
- $42K or less sticker price
- Build a true sports sedan/coupe, not an attempt to build a better Lexus.
- Must compete effectively with BMW 335i in every performance parameter.
Basically, a worthy successor to the 1991-1995 Legend, and not just a dressed up US-Spec Accord with a big engine and gobs of torque steer.
White92 said:-It already is available with a 6 speed manual.
-The sticker is less than $42k. (just a hair over $38k actually)
-It's not "just a dressed up US-Spec Accord with a big engine". I don't think the 2 cars share any of the same parts. They might be built on the same platform, but so are the Odyssey and the MDX, but obviously they are 2 completely different vehicles.
