So what does it bring to the table that the TSX doesn't? I get the lower sticker price but that is it? As DCR quoted in another thread how does this vehicle replace the RSX in Acura's lineup, if that is the purpose?

Why not just bring back the Gen 1 TSX and be done with it?

I wonder if they talked about strategy at the event and how this fits in and or what gap it fills?



It isn't.
The point, is that the TSX is too close in size to the TL, and too expensive to be considered "entry-level."
I'd rather the TSX shrink, and people make it cheaper than have it axed altogether. The TSX was my favorite Acura, and I will miss it.
