I'm also looking at this Honda!!! I tried the current generation TLX twice. One was FWD. The other was A-Spec SH-AWD. It was OK but not as brilliant as my GSF steering, handling, brake, power, etc. (Of course!!! because of the prices)
I will definitely try this new TLX in the future because my daughter will take over my wife's 2010 M35X next summer and we will need another car then...
I think Japanese car makers should build more high performance cars.... But, unfortunately many people don't buy those cars because they think Japanese car makers cannot build good performance cars... (Actually they CAN!!!)
PS: Right! You cannot buy this TLX in Taiwan but you can import 1-3 year old used TLX from USA... It's cheaper and still extremely reliable!!! (Don't buy used German cars... One of my friend bought a 1 year old used BMW e90 328 NA inline 6. Guess what... The transmission was shot 3 years later!!!)
