Used 2011 Acura TSX Consumer Reviews
Sporty and Luxury in a small sedan
I have had my 2010 TSX 4 cyl for a week now. I traded down from an SUV, I wanted something more fuel efficient. I am getting about 26mpg trip average. So my main concern is satisfied there. This is a great commuter car, very comfortable, quick acceleration, sharp steering, and has all the safety features. The Tech package has a great audio system and a decent navi. Interior is slick, without going over the top luxury. No wood anywhere, but nice leather and textured plastic/metal. Some people don't like the exterior styling, but I like it. It certainly stands out in a crowd, looks modern and sleek. Overall, for an entry level luxury, nothing beats Acura.
Fun to Drive but Noisy
Vehicle is fun to drive and the fuel economy is awesome. Averaged 26 miles in stop and go traffic, and about 31 on the hwy. First three fill-ups averaged 550 miles. Last fill-up averaged 600 miles on a full tank of gas. Having some problems with a rattling noise coming from the steering column. Noise goes away when you downward or upward pressure on the steering wheel.

Everything is Perception
This is my first Japanease Car and after owning many American and a few German cars I am profoundly dissapointed. First the headliner was coming off and had to be replaced, second the rear shock was making an annoying jingling noise and had to be repaired and now I have a thumping noise everytime I step on the brakes and evertime I takeoff. This car feels like its falling apart and it only has 3500 miles on it. The interior is very well appointed but the side dash cover plates do not seem to be well installed. The car has good power for a four cylinder and great fuel economy as compared with large American SUV that I drove before. However just don't see this quality every raves.
Second TSX
Former owner of a 2008 TSX, which I had for almost 50K miles. The new model is an improvement in interior size, quieter cabin and handling. Exterior design is pleasing also. Fuel economy is the same to the former model, average mixed driving is 30 mpg and highway 33 to 36 mpg. When hard accelerating the exhaust note growls. Steering has plenty of feedback and the suspension is stiff but not teeth rattling. I'm pleased with the evolutionary improvements.
Fun car, drove it into the ground
I owned a 2010 Acura TSX V6 with tech. Very reliable, fun car. I owned it for 10 years and put 212,000 miles on it. I only replaced the water pump, alternator and cv axles, which isn’t bad. At 212,000 miles the tranny was starting to go, but I drove the car hard and a lot. Recently traded it in. The Bluetooth voice commands could have been better at detecting my commands, and the navigation maps need updating (even with the updated discs). All in all though, I was very satisfied with the performance, comfort and reliability of the car. I just can’t give it 5 stars because of the Bluetooth and maps.
