New Acura TL 300hp 4wd 6MT!!
The Honda Legend/ Acura TL will be available in with 280hp 5AT or 6MT and the top model will be the TL HPT Version. Which puts out 300hp 280+lbs of torque in a 3.5 liter V6. It will have a 6-speed manual 18 inch wheels, LSD, and yes a sport 4-wd. Expect the loaded model to cost about 37K US.
   The front will be very much like a TSX. Honda Ballin' outta controle!

You might have noticed the Accord from North America replaced the Acura TL in Japan as the new inspire, you know the new TL was probably going to replace the Legend. Also since the Legends sales were like nothing in Japan the car had to be good.
And so here it is!

Those specs sound really nice and the car doesn't look bad either. So I take it you got some sort of sneak peak JP?

Well these pics are off the net.. But I have a couple of people who are very well connected.. I have a buddy at Paisley, basically anything Honda/Toyota/Nissan I find out before most..
My friend's girlfriend is japanese.. Her sister is still in Japan and works for Nissan. She's really sweet and keeps us well informed Enough said.. Oh and I know a guy who works for Honda motor co (of America) -- marketing.. He's a car person like us.. So, everytime we meet thats obviously all we talk about.

that car is awesome and it's not that expensive. If any one has pics of the interior hook it up.
