Better than not able to buy it at all
Right it's an Acura here, & it's basically the same car

I'm not sure it will be under $30K nicely loaded though. Maybe under $35 which is still a good price. My brother in law back in 2005 bought his 05 with the upgraded rims and OEM body kit for just under $30K. With the new design, new engine, and inflation, I'd say it might be a little hard to get this car under $30K.

I am indifferent... The current TSX design is fantastic.

If it's around $35k, wouldn't that cannibalize sales from the TL?

If they offered an 08 TL with MT without having to get a Type-S, I have a feeling I would have gotten that instead of an 2IS.

AWD / Turbo for 20k-25k - WRX

AWD / Turbo sports for 25k-30k - STI / EVO

AWD / Turbo entry luxury for 30k -35k - A4 / Volvo / TSX?

If priced too high, it's going against a very sporty competition already with proven awd turbo experience.
