Default Euro R vs TSX



Why American Honda always mess up a good thing and we end up with degraded
model. My hope for Euro R is gone!

I wouldn't totally discount the possibility of us getting something as fast or faster than the Euro R. The TSX that was shown at Detroit is the base model, no mention of the Type-S. I think the reason for this is they want to release the upgraded TL before the TSX-S so that they don't cannibalize each other. Remember the base TL only has 225 hp so you can't very well give the TSX 220-240 (at least that'd be Honda's thinking).

On another note look for the new TL-S to be the first i-VTEC V6 with somewhere in the neighborhood of 280 hp at the end of this year. No RWD yet

biggest difference is that the Euro R uses the K20A whereas the TSX uses the K24.

The Euro R's engine is pretty much the same as the one in the ITR and CTR
