    yep hondaboy is right. THe engine is a C27 non turbo but yeah, there was a stock V6 turbo in Japan. on the same note, THe C27 found on the legends (USDM) have just 160.

    yeah, the honda production turbo cars surprise most of us cuz we hardly ever get our hands on em unless we live in Asia. they have made a number of em. so my question is, why the hell dont they send us something with a turbo. if they had the new civics with stock turbos, they would sell even better than they do now. and the same with the TSX acura aka. Euro accord. either that or they should have aftermarket honda performance that comes with a nice warrenty. that would probley cost a lot though.

    There's alot going on that most of us don't know or don't care to know. Customer demographics, all the different stats, will the car sell, should we detune instead for better sales to older folks, blah blah. They don't take the risk to import a car that won't really sell. Most ppl buy hondas not for their performance (nsx excluded). IMHO

    Re: Closest Thing To V6 3gee!

    somewhere on here is a picture of a three g with a v6 installed in it. it's not factory but pretty cool. anybody know where it is? it fits very well. I shoehorned a legend v6 in an 81 civic hatch once, the project from hell,all the metal on the front had to be reworked. it was just way too dangerous. the suspension just wasn't good enough for the power plant. lost a good friend over that project,also an ex wife and a ton of money. never again.

    yeah i'd have to agree.. on 3geez i prefer sedans but 1g legends the coupes look better

    my neighbor has a white sedan.. it's pretty clean i always check it out when it's parked on the street. Saw a sweet two tone (white/silver) one last night at the grocery store.

    here's a side by side comparison of a 3gee and a legend

    see, i'd like to use the flared out fender style to put on my 3gee as the legend has. thought that would look nice.
