Re:Honda Accord 2006 Prototype... FACTORY TURBO
Nice car. Sounds like Honda is starting to catch on with this turbocharger stuff you crazy bastards at HMT are always talking about. 
Heh, speaking of that model, When I was in high school and we'd go to car shows, I'd be that scumbag alway's hitting on the model's and asking them if they come w/ the car. Asking them if I can try out the back seat w/ me. Haha, it seemed like some were impressed to hear that coming from a 17 yr. old little ----.

It's unlikely that honda will sell a turbo gasoline engine. It's very much against their corporate direction as they've so heavilly invested in high revving NA motors.
There is also nothing specifically wrong with the motors they're producing - they are making good peak hp numbers and the K series produces some respectable torque numbers (for honda). Their engines are also clean, efficient and reliable.
Stop dreaming.

Apparently Honda and GM swapped some engines. The 2004 Saturn Vue V6 has a peppy Honda engine, and in turn Honda is using Isuzu/GM turbo diesels as a model for their euro Accord engines.

Re:Honda Accord 2006 Prototype... FACTORY TURBO
Market trends and sales determine what gets produced in most cases.
I don't believe that it's impossible to think that Honda would produce a turbo vehicle. In fact...What's this thread about?
A factory turbo Honda.

Re:Honda Accord 2006 Prototype... FACTORY TURBO
Its hard to determine if honda will invest in turbocharged vehicles. The point of honda was to produce economy cars. Building a turbo could defeat that. They aren't loosing sales so they dont really need to change anything to keep the sales up. However, alot of mistakes have been happing with honda, (like that gay as truck we seen on here or the new si) which could stir the die heart fans away. So they might produce boosted engines.
