2009 Hondas Debut at the NYIAS

So the Acura TSX and Honda Fit made there debuts at the New York International Auto Show a couple days...weeks...ago.

The 2nd generation TSX, is again another badge engineered Honda Accord - those of which can be found in Japan and Europe. Honda enthusiasts hoping for "Infiniti G-series like miracles" will have to wait awhile as the TSX is debuting as a heavier car that produces less horsepower than the previous generation, with styling that is pretty safe if not Honda-ish. Honda Acura has not so much denied, but left the door open to introduce another engine. Most have guessed that 2nd engine is the i-DTEC engine that debuted in Europe earlier this year as it was stated to make it's way into the Acura line. What of the rumored turbo 4-banger or V6 SH-AWD model? I guess we'll have to wait and see what's coming later on in this generation as the TSX tries to live up to the praise the previous generation garnered.

The second generation Honda Fit comes two years after it's debut to the North American market. Again, it is poised to take the market by storm as it has improved on everything that made the original Fit a hit. From increasing storage space to bumping up the power output, the Fit will be setting the bar even higher for other cars in it's class.
