Best Little Acura Yet

Owned 2004 and had to replace it with a 2005. All the little gripes that most forum users had are addressed with the 2005 model. The car is top notch for the price point. Not that 29K isn't a lot of money, but compared to quality and features, you can't beat it.

Bought my TSX in January and I've been in love ever since. Absolutely beautiful inside and out. Quick, fun to drive. Get lots of positive comments from friends. Very comfortable seating and controls. I'm very short so the electric seat adjustments are great. Thumbs up!

What's not to like???

I just traded my 2001 Acura 3.2 CL in for a TSX. The TSX has a smaller engine, but is almost as peppy as the V-6 powered CL. I took a model with the unwanted Navigation system because it was on the lot and was the color I wanted. After two lengthy trips in the car I've been converted - the nav system is indeed useful. To recycle an old quote, the car tracks like "a cannonball dropped down a chimney" - very responsive to steering and pedal input. It has a nice controlled ride without being harsh. The interior is quite comfortable and all of the car's controls and switches are easily reachable and ergonomically well thought out. Styling is a matter of personal opinion, but I like it.

A truly wonderful automobile

I've owned this car for over a month so far and cannot be happier with my decision to buy it. I had cross-shopped this vehicle with the BMW 3-series (reliability concerns and much less value for money), Audi A4 (again, less value for the money), Lexus IS 300 (too small) and Mazda6 (inferior build quality). No other vehicle was comparable to the all-around the performance, quality, and features found in the TSX. The power is excellent especially for a 4-cylinder engine, and the handling is taut and precise. The interior is very nicely appointed, and the car comes fully loaded. I opted against the only option - the navigation feature as I didn't think it was necessary for my needs.

Great value

Owned 325i and never thought Japan could win me back. BMW clearly has edge in handling and 6 is silk but TSX is infinitesimally behind. Throw in standard equipment and reliability and it is offer I could not refuse. Need to learn how to drive the 2.4. Remarkably tractable around town but when you really get into it the engine responds in a way only Acura iVTEC can. From high 3000's to redline just keeps pulling. Comfort and ambiance at top of class. Considered TL but its value measures against 5 series or E class. If you are in market for entry level sports sedan DRIVE THE TSX NOW
