The last time we heard anything about the Acura NSX – it pretty much made us very depressed. Rumor has it that the car will now become a “Super Hybrid Sports” model that would be powered by a 450-hp 3.5L V6 engine mated to a hybrid system. Every dream of seeing a 600-hp 5.5L V10 NSX to compete with the Nissan GT-R and the upcoming Lexus LF-A has shattered into a million pieces. (more…)

Even though it’s been going on for more than two years now, the tale of the Acura NSX is like a news story that just broke: you have to keep checking back for details, and each subsequent update could turn the whole story on its head.

The TSX has a 2.4-liter four with 201 horsepower and 176 lb.-ft. of torque and lots of features standard including bluetooth Bluetooth, a USB port, iPod integration, a seven-speaker sound system, dual-zone climate control, HID headlamps and a moonroof.

As reported by Autoblog:

The redesigned 2009 Acura TSX was revealed live at the New York Auto Show just a few moments ago, and despite the new face of Acura, the TSX isn’t nearly as ugly in person as we suspected. We’ve found that the key to the new nose is partnering it with lighter colors (silver, white, etc.) and avoiding the darker hues that don’t do much to blend with the bright metallic mug.
