Ha ha ...   so another terrible driving car as the Camry V6 ?

At first, I am glad that Honda make the 4cyc Accord/TSX ..  in order to keep the car the way it should ..  

But still ..  in order to m ...

I don't agree with what you said...  I have both TSX and a 3 series.
The TSX is actually a big car that is even bigger than the 3.  It is not light either, i think around 1400 kg (as heavy as accord).  The 3 is smaller, but still get a V6 turbo engine... so haha.. yeah... V6 on a TSX is not really unreasonable geh.
I also think it is a waste of the K-series engine.  The K-series does give reasonable power, so i guess the V6 is just a marketing thing...  man... if i want a v6, i would buy a TL lol.
The worst thing is that if they are gonna use V6, then I think the TSX will be made in north america instead of Japan... duh...

I guess the point is, a FWD should not get a much heavier V6 engine?

but TSX with 4 cylinders is not any lighter than V6 accord wor.  So i don't think the weight of the engine makes a huge difference.
May be power... but i think FWD with less than 250 hp is ok.

imo, instead of weight, I would look at FWD having the front doing both power and turning a more disadvantage...

lol sorry, I was just thinking 6 cyclinders and somehow typed V6.  Should be I6 :p

hmm... but in terms of size, I think comparing TSX with 3 is appropriate.  the 323 is only 1500 kg.  And if you ask me, if I can only afford 323, I would definiately pick TSX over 323.

haha... i don't even think that people who drive V6 accord or TL would care.  I mean if they do care or know about it, they wouldn't even buy it in the 1st place.  So I think as a marketing strategy, it is working nicely.  You won't believe how many times I hear people saying "hmm.. TSX... 最衰冇6氣缸"

Isn't V6/I6 heavier and therefore throws off the weight dist. of front and back?

Or maybe just a misconception of mine.

nah... not really... as Cat said, 3 has I6, still 50/50 distribution.  So yeah, even the engine is at the front, you can still do it.

FWD本身好難做到 50/50
車尾得個油缸, 比你放埋電池去後面都冇用
做到 前後50/50o既話 架車會重左好多好多

shift 個 engine 去後d, 偷輕前面, 再擺多十包米...
