Many have spoke and today Acura responded with the world premier the Acura TSX Sport Wagon.
Acura managed to keep a lid on photos of its latest entry with no embargo breaks that ruin the surprise factor that used accompany a new model introduction.

Of course, the TSX is based off the European Honda Accord, so we already had a very good idea as to what the wagon was going to look like. Still, you can't beat seeing the real thing and that was what we were waiting for.
As it turns out, the TSX Sport Wagon looks exactly as we expected it would and that is a good thing. The shield grille works on the TSX in ways that the TL can only dream of. Acura left pretty much everything else as the Europeans intended it. As they say, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
Besides the appearance of the wagon, many fans were speculating whether or not a manual transmission or V6 would be offered in the Sport Wagon. However, as one might expect given the low volumes, the wagon will be offered only with one engine, 2.4-liter, DOHC i-VTEC®, inline four-cylinder engine and one transmission, the Sequential SportShift 5-speed automatic transmission fit with steering-wheel mounted paddle shifters.

As per usual, Acura threw the technology book at the TSX Sport Wagon with an available hard disk drive-based Acura Navigation System with an all-new 8-inch full VGA high-resolution color display and AcuraLink Real-Time Traffic and Weather™ featuring radar image mapping.
When it comes to the stereo, the TSX Sport Wagon will be available with Acura's excellent ELS Surround audio system and a hard disk drive for media storage.
