In terms of power, Honda over rates their engines fairly significanly, so I would be suprised if it was any faster than a 328 and at the same price I would never look at it. To make it even less appealing to euopean sports sedan buyers Acura yet agains makes an executive decision not to offer a stick?? It took them 10 years to get around to offering a stick on their V6 cars and even then they try to only offer it in coupes unless it is mated to a 4 cylinder!
So close, yet so far away - Hyundai seems to get it and is starting to make a worthy product - Honda better watch out!

Actually, the dynos show that Acura UNDERRATES the 4-cyl in TSX by about 10%.
And, it also won't be anywhere near the price of a similar E90. With every available feature, including Nav, backup camera, heated seats, etc, should go for about $34,000 - or the same price as an E90 with leatherette.
