Acura TSX for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Conservative good looks, value-minded luxury, super smooth, 200-horsepower motor.

Cons

Somewhat bland styling, no V6 availability.

What’s new

Although based on an existing European Honda, the TSX is an all-new car for the U.S. market.

Edmunds says

Able to effectively ride the line between sport and luxury sedan, the new TSX delivers on both promises with few compromises.

2004 TSX w/ AT (No Nav)

klossfam, 09/26/2006

2004 Acura TSX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)

At 30,000 miles, perfect reliability (not one issue - even minor). It's the best FWD car platform ever in my opinion. Great blend of luxury and sport. Worst part of new TSX are the Michelin Pilots. A switch to Falken 512s tires made a great car greater. Right on the EPA mileage ratings. Can't be beat for the price and the ability to hold a high resale value borders on ridiculous.

More than satisified

2004 Acura TSX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)

Driving a 9 year old Infiniti I30t, I have been searching for one year for a replacement. Considerations were subaru legacy limited, volvo 240, saab 9-3. After thorough research of other user reviews of each car for fun factor, and reliability, in addition to test drives, I chose a preowned TSX. Absolutely love this car. Acura (as expected) has agonized over every single detail for …

Still Love it....

2004 Acura TSX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5A)

Just in case you are shopping for an early model year TSX, I wanted to confirm that these cars, even after 10+ years, are still fantastic. There's a reason you still see so many on the road, they are bulletproof reliable and drive great, even after all these years. Mine is an April 2004 build, and I'll admit it's been babied with just now 79K on it, but I still feel good getting in it …

2004 Acura TSX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)

Bought my 04 TSX 6spd man in June '15 with 60,000 miles and it still feels like new. All of the cars controls have a responsive, precise feel to them. Lateral cornering grip is fantastic and the car goes exactly where you point it with minimal understeer. The steering is precise and the manual transmission feels like it came out of a sports car, with very short throws and a buttery snick …
