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 make stupu-d american happy ..  big V6 in a small FWD car ..    

Oh well ..  I think TSX is for young buyer, who want a different car sedan, rather then Accord/Altima/Camry .. ( and compete with Jetta .. Volvo S40 .. etc )

Hopefully .. with this scary set up .. won't cause much more accident la..

SIcne when BMW uses " V 6 " ??

And since when, TSX is comparing with 3 series?

TSX = Accord ..  it is an Accord for other market ..  I have driven many TSX, they are good car, much more fun then Camry, Accord (domestic) model...  

However, FWD with a big V6 ..  

TSX isn't a small car, but as said, 1400kg, that is still 200KG less then a 3 series and it may not a lots lighter then an Accord / Camry ..   but since there is a V6 accord already .. why V6 TSX ?   and not just about size and weight .. it is the lay out ..  and weight dist .. 3 series is 50/50 weight ...  and very strong chassis .. so even 420HP ..  no problem ..   new TL ..  300HP ..  and at least, they are AWD ...  

For those who is driving a V6 accord, or TL (not the new AWD one)etc ..  they know what I mean ...  

MSN4 is right ..  FWD ..   the front wheel need to do both power and turning ...  is not that ideal ..  and 280HP ....

Type R, 147/156 .. 206/306 are few of the great handling driving FWD .. (4cyc version)


Anyway ..  no many people cares about handling nowadays ..    same as photography ..  people care about "HIGHER" MP # .. but not "better" picture quality ..

Yup ..  buyers is more important in the market .... especially it is buyer market now ..

Look at toyota ..  biggest car company in the world .. sell more cars then anyone else .. are they DRIVER CAR ? no .. not even close .. are they cars for BUYERS ?  yes ..  

I have talked to many many many toyota owners ..  ask why they like toyota  ( including my in law )   why Toyota ? answer --> um .. toyota ..  good gau!  

And I ask .. " do u enjoy driving it ? " --> NO ..  but it is a toyota .. that is ok ..

( I just bought a stupid 8 seater Toyota SUV for my wife too ..  we both HATE driving it .. but at least, we know it is reliable ..  and that is what a pregnant woman needs ...  dont want to take a change to drive an X5 or ML or Q7 .. and break down in the middle of nowhere when -30 degree ...  and we dont want to spend huge money on a Cayenne ..   )

Same as digital camera ...

Is MP important to photographers ??  NO ...

Is MP important to general buyers ?  YES ..

He he .. just good to have the "EXTRA" seat jei ..  

So when my parents come to visit me this summer ... ( actually ..  visit Mini CP )  then we dont hv to drive 2 cars ar ma ..  

It is car for my wife .. but .. whenever I am with her ..  she will force me to drive it ...   so she doesn't hv to ..   

On the otherhand, I have to drive it too ..  since if just being as a passenger .. I will be car sick ..    so may well drive it!
