2011 Acura MSX?

Acura cancelled the next NSX but will bring you the following:


The MSX (?), supposedly Acura's answer to BMW's X6 and Infiniti's FX.


The MSX is assumed to get a 3.7 liter V6 like it's brothers the RL, TL, and MDX, but could surprise everyone with Acura's infamous missing V8.


More realistically, the MSX will get an upgraded six speed automatic.


Rumors are focused around an upscaled interior and price.


The rumored to be low production crossover will mostlikely cost $42k to $50.
