With a newly available 280-hp 3.5-litre V6 engine, the 2010 Acura TSX V6 offers quicker acceleration and more engine refinement than the four-cylinder model, says Senior Editor, Paul Williams, but is its price too high, he asks?

When will Acura come out with a 2010 TSX V6 6MT? It's illogical that there is. TL 6MT but no TSX 6V 6MT. Thanks fore responding.

When will Acura bring their diesel models offered in Europe to North America now that we have clean diesel technology reflected as evidenced with the VW TDI? A great option for those wanting to make a contribution in reducing our carbon footprint but don't want to drive a hybrid.

TSX V6 is $200 less than a TL frankley that's just silly.

If the TSX V6 was SH-AWD, then it might make more sense. But this doesn't.

Agreed, If Acura wants to price the TSX in this range, I think SH-AWD is needed.

The upcoming TSX Sport Wagon (Euro Accord Tourer) with V6, SH-AWD, and the 6 speed manual would be a nice combination too. That would be the combo to get me to get back in a Honda/Acura.

But Honda Canada aren't bright enough to do that - especially with that 6-spd.  And it should be priced at 32K.  I'd be standing on the doorstep waiting for opening day for that one - if it had the diesel too.

The pricing of the TSX is about $2000-$3000 too high.

I thought that Acura/Honda got it right with the pricing when they annouced that the new generation model gets a MSRP of ~$33000.
Then looking at the specs, they took out the leather and HID etc. 
Adding the premium package bumps the MSRP up to $36000.
