2009 Acura Model Update

Another round of updates for the 2009 TSX, TL and RL have supposedly been coming in. Starting off with the 2009 TSX, its onsale date has been confirmed once again as 4/24/08. From this source, it is believed that the TSX will be front wheel drived first with a possible revised turbocharged engine, it is also believed that an XM weather function will be offered in the 2009 TSX. For the 2009 RL, it will supposedly get the XM weather function and get cooled front seats for the US (as has been offered in Canada for the past few years). It is also reumoured that the RL may get the same 3.5L motor but with a power increase to 306hp. But the 2009 TL will get a 3.5L with front wheel drive and a 3.7L with SH-AWD so this seems awkward the RL will get the smaller engine. (strangely, these were always offered in Canada). From reports, it is believed that the RL now has an edgier look to it. Supposedly the RL will continue with a 3.5L motor, but it will now deliver 306hp. Considering that the '09 TL will supposedly be getting a 3.5L (FF) and 3.7L (SH-AWD), it seems odd that the RL would stick with the 3.5, so this might be an error.
