Default Question about '09 TSX

I know Honda has a new Diesel Turbo going in a new production next year is it possible this will be going in the TSX I always said if this car was AWD Turbo like the MDX and priced at 35-40k it would be a number one seller. Any thoughts? Reason Im asking is because I like the new TSX's but if they are going to throw the diesel in them next year I will hold off...

i imagine it will probably be the rdx motor. im sure it will be a few years til we get the diesel version. other countries will always get the newer motors before us.

That is interesting. Did you read about the turbo diesel civic type r? like 180hp and 315 ft lb of torque. if we got that motor in our new civics that would be killer.
