Amazing
Bought in feb 2011, now 10 months & 16,000 miles later.... all i can say is simply amazing. I've heard good things about Acura but was sold from my first test drive. The handling of this car is by far better than most sports cars, & i've had my share in the past 35 yrs. I smile in the morning as i get out of the door looking forward to my 30 min drive. I look forward to freeways that merge so i can take the turn; i never decelerate and it asks for more. I also like the lumbar seats, my gas is over 20 atimes gets 24-26 when i can keep it at 65. Quiet, problem free, a dream car. I'm not usually at a loss 4 words so all i can say is i wish everyone could drive a car like this.
Most Balance Sedan On The Road!!!
Folks this is perhaps one of the most balance sedan on the road in terms of power, balance and economical. For those asking for a V6, you really do not appreciate Acura engineering of the the K24 motor for this vehicle. Aside from the Honda S2000, how many four cylinders naturally aspirated engine that pumps out over 200 horses you're aware of? Not many. That's the beauty of this vehicle. Acura is able to squeeze every last bit of horse power (they can certainly do more) from the 2.4 four cylinders to give this Acura TSX it's wonderful performance and yet economical at the same time. When equipped with the manual transmission, the TSX may reach 0 - 60 mile in under 7 second. That's nothing to brag about, however when you get over 30 miles to a gallon doing so is indeed special. I've tested the V6 and really aside from the extra pickup you get, it really kill the dynamic and balance of the TSX. The TSX is a smaller sedan, the V6 make it very top heavy. As a result causing more understeer and diminishing its agility. Lost most of that dare I say "Fun Factor" of this wonderful vehicle. It's like buying a Honda S2000 and asking for a V6 because you do not appreciate the high performance of that motor. I wish Acura should never put that V6 in the TSX's. If you really wanted a V6, you should opt for the TL model as this vehicle is more engineer for V6 due to its size. In addition, all TL came equipped with V6 standard. My wish for Acura is continued to squeeze out more horsepower from the K24 motor and make it even more agile and nimble. This my friends is the hallmark of the TSX sedan.

Great styling, value and lots of fun
After owning a 2011 Acura MDX for about a year - and loving it - I went out and bought this TSX as a commuter vehicle. I guess you either like Acura styling or you don't - I happen to really like the unique and aggressive styling. After reading some reviews, I wasn't expecting much from the 2.4 L, 4 cyl. engine. I was pleasantly surprised when I test drove the TSX, however. The engine is peppy and quite responsive. I have no problems merging on the freeway or passing - in fact, I really look forward to it. The TSX handles great - I find myself searching for curves or reasons to swerve on the interstate. You get lots of features on the base TSX, which makes it an excellent value.
Let's get real about the reviews....
So, I read a ton of reviews before leasing this car. Net: This is a very good car for the money. Contrary to what some have said: 1 - This is a quiet car on the highway. Very minor road noise. People can speak at a normal volume and hold a conversation easily at 70 mph. 2 - Very comfortable. Not a mushy "Camry / Buick" ride, but firm, yet quite comfortable. 3 - Handling - very competent. 0.85g on the skid pad, better than most cars. 4 - Acceleration - quite good for a 4 cylinder. 5 - Gas mileage. Avg. 25 mixed and easily tops 30 on the Highway. Sports sedan? If you want one of these, better to buy a rear driver, like a BMW. It "Sporty" Sedan? Absolutely. Great commuter
1st Time Acura Owner
Just got my 1st Acura and couldn't be more impressed. I was going to stay in the Toyota family, but thought I'd give Acura a try. I couldn't be more impressed. I love the interior and exterior style and quality. I've had a BMW 328i and honestly, I like the TSX better. I needed a sedan, and I'm glad I chose this one.
