Yeah when i bought my DC two weeks ago the salesmen said he couldn't wait to get them from honda it's supposed to be a revised tsx with a k24-Tubro YO! They were also talking about putting the SH-AWD system on it around 250-280hp 6six speed still We were also talking about how it's going to be nice when they get the V10 NSX. here is some information i have gotten from reading up on other forums...

Base - FWD
2.4 I4 A-Vtec 215hp 180+lbs. torque.
Content from RDX but with power passenger seat.
Weight (MT6/AT6): 3200lbs/3280
Tire/Wheel size: 225/50 17in
MPG: 24/33
Price: $28,900 - 32,400 w/ Tech package (same as RDX)

Type S - SHAWD
2.3 Turbo I4 A-Vtec 260+hp 250lbs. torque
Content same as base with unique interior touch
Weight (DSG6): 3450lbs
Tire/Wheel size: 235/45 18in
MPG: 22/30
Price $32,400 - 35,900 w/Tech package (same as RDX)

<U>Since you just heard about that....have you heard about AVTEC?</U>
Honda has announced it’s next generation VTEC engine, the Advanced VTEC engine (AVTEC) which will make it’s debut in a production car within the next three years. Honda’s new Advanced VTEC (AVTEC) engine combines continuously variable valve lift and timing control with the continuously variable phase control of valve timing to achieve a good combination of better performance, fuel economy, and lower emissions. This is an improvement over the i-VTEC system which has preset changeover settings in valve lift - the new AVTEC system can adjust the valve lift continuously. There is also a variable-length intake manifold to improve intake airflow.


The Advanced VTEC (AVTEC) system allows optimum control over intake valve lift and phase in response to driving conditions for a significant increase in torque across the engine rev range. Under low and medium loads, the valves are set to have low lift and early closure - this reduces pumping losses and subsequently improves fuel economy.

The new AVTEC system will allow for a 13% improvement in fuel economy over the current i-VTEC range of engines. The 13% figure was obtained comparing the current K24A 2.4 liter i-VTEC engine with a new 2.4 liter AVTEC equivalent. Emissions are compliant with US LEV2-ULEV standards and Japanese Low-Emission Vehicles standards with levels 75% lower than 2005 standards

then its going to be supercalofragilistic-vtec
