It’ll most likely show up in the next gen Acura TLX, MDX, and/or RLX. Acura is desiring to become more serious in the premium/luxury car market, so this move to develop a new turbocharged V6 would help them become more competitive. Anyways, I’ll just say that I’m ғᴜᴄᴋɪɴɢ ʜʏᴘᴇᴅ for this new engine. Once Honda/Acura drops this engine in a sexy body shell…let’s just say that I’d probably be the first in line since I know that Honda engines can be really epic. I drove a TLX A-Spec with the most recent version of the J35 engine, and I loved it (especially the way it sounded).

This is a leaked picture of the new Genesis G70, a new luxury compact sedan under Hyundai’s Genesis luxury division. This is expected to compete with the likes of the 3 Series, A4, C Class, Giulia, and the like. This car will be based off the chassis of the Kia Stinger, but this will also be shorter, narrower, and lighter than its Kia relative with a shorter wheelbase. The G70 will use a 2.0 liter turbocharged four cylinder engine and a 3.3 liter twin turbo V6 engine for higher trim levels (just like the Stinger).

It was a Saturday morning today when I was driving my mom’s Honda Accord LX to the gym, and I saw a couple of Chargers, some Mustangs, and a Focus RS yielding to turn left in a go-kart place parking lot. The first thing I wondered was if there was a car meet going on. I continued driving to the gym. When I finished excercising at the gym, I decided to go to the go-kart place to see if these was actually a car meet going on, and it turned out that I was right; there was indeed a car meet taking place.

In 1981, BMW was happy with the 6 series (E24), but they were thinking of taking things to the new level. They wanted to move beyond the market of the E24. BMW thought to begin project E31 in an effort to compete in the upper class luxury coupé market, but it was not until 1984 did project E31 receive the green light from BMW’s management. Only then did BMW begin testing the E31 8 Series. BMW constructed some of the E31 testing mules out of E24s, although the E31 would not use the same chassis as the E24.

It all started in the year 2000. At the time, Lexus had a positive reputation for making reliable luxury cars, but Lexus was also mocked at for making rebadged Toyotas for the elderly folk with extra cash in their pocket. They were also mocked at for making cars that did not possess athletic driving dynamics similar to BMWs, although the original Lexus IS was a strong contender to Munich’s own 3 Series sports sedan. To challenge these stereotypes (which persist today), Lexus decided that it was time to show the world what it can do. Thus, the development for the LFA began.
