Scheduled to be available for sale in the middle of 2009, Acura has introduced its V6-powered variant of the TSX sports sedan at today’s Chicago Auto Show. It comes with the 3.5-liter V6 derived from the TL and RL which yields 280hp (209kW).
A stiffer suspension has been installed to compensate for the additional power yield together with new control setting for Acura’s Sequential SportsShift 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters derived from the F1. The wheels, which are wrapped with Michelin Pilot all-season rubber, are 18-inch aluminum. Besides bigger wheels, the TSX is made distinct from its 4-cylinder version by a slightly modified front face and V6 marking.
