I bought my TSX used in early 2014. My company moved from the suburbs to downtown so my commute changed from an easy 10 minutes on a turnpike to 20-30 minutes of Indy 500 with crack-ups and rescue vehicles included, and I'm so glad I bought the TSX instead of some larger sedans or SUV's I was looking at. My wife has a 2011 Pilot EXL so the need for another SUV really wasn't there anyway. We've had or still have six Honda's and two Acura's plus Mazdas and Nissans and some Fords. I'm getting over 25 MPG even with all the stops and starts and racing that I'm doing. I use the paddle shifters ALL THE TIME and it's so cool to pass or get around someone and then to accelerate and just get away from them (even within the speed limit, the acceleration is awesome). I did read the reviews about geting the 6 cylinder if you can find one, and I did test drive a 4 cylinder and then a 6 cylinder, back to back and the 6 is spectacular. I wasn't quite ready to pull the trigger, and the color of the 6 cylinder was white and I prefer black. The paddle shifters make the 4 cylinder a blast. This car is very fun to drive. It's easy to find a 4 cylinder in the color combination you want, and when you do, just buy it! I got mine with 64,000 miles on it and I'm at 104,000 after 20 months. I'll probably take it to 135,000 miles and then sell it and get a 2013 or 2014. This car is great for getting around in the parking garage, and my 17-year old son and his buddies think it's pretty slick!

Has over 200k on it and still drives like new. Burns eats or leaks no oil what so ever, which is odd because these engines are known for vanishing oil. Brakes are the one weak point, they go fast and generally aren't super reactive. ELS sound system is better than almost every other stock sound system I have heard. On long road trips, I average (you ready?) THIRTY EIGHT MILES PER GALLON. Yes, I understand the computer is not the most accurate when it comes to estimating mpg, but I got this with fill up to fill up math, multiple times, it's not an anomaly. I get this on regular 87 also. After this car, it's Acura for life for me. Well, until I can afford a lexus LS anyway.

Not great in snow. Excellent fuel mileage. Over 40 MPG on road trip and averages 28 MPG in city. However, premium fuel. Good road feel with little body roll. Front seats are supportive. Very reliable and spacious trunk. My second TSX, previous 2007. Dealer is excellent. Nice solid sports sedan. It won't overwhelm you with performance, but it doesn't take a ton of cash to maintain. When starting, delay in engine cranking over. Replaced starter as possible solution. Wished Acura had push button starter in this model. Continues to be reliable, just remember that starting has that slight delay. Little wear on tires and brakes. Overall, a great satisfying experience! Local Acura/Boise dealer is excellent!

I've had two Audi A4s and a Ford Fusion, all of which I liked very much. However, for the money, the Acura TSX is the best car I've had. Excellent fuel economy, great features, nice design, and Honda/Acura reliability made this a no-brainer to buy. I, like many, am not overly thrilled with the electronic steering, and it took some getting used to. Frankly, now, however, I don't notice that it's any different from any other car I've driven. It's really only noticeable on highways; city driving is just like any other.

Have a problem with the defective clips holding the exterior side panels along the windshield of this car. They have repeatedly come off and dealership said I was the first to have it happen 3Xs indicating it is common. I find the trunk & hood also very thin & light causing them to vibrate at 60 - 70mph. Also have a/c problems. Seems to have a mind of its own turning on high without touching it. All other comments I agree with. Comfortable, good road feel, nice pick up - voice command however needs improvement as well as navi-lighting & paint quality (show minor scratching too easily)!
