Shift Up

First time driving a 6-speed manual. The torque and gear match seems to be pushing the driver to shifting up quickly. That is, the car seems to be over powered and over torqued for each of the gear ratio. While this is a manual shift car, it seems to be a manual shift car in an artificial construct.

I had narrowed my choice down to the BMW 328i or the TSX and after driving both cars the choice was fairly easy, with my wife in agreement. First, let me say that unless you are into racing or hot rodding, you don't need the 6 cyl. and you will get the bonus of much better gas mileage. So far I have averaged 27.6 mpg. The car is loaded with features, so you don't really need to buy any options and the price is great for the luxury level. My only complaint is the trunk is access with any bag larger than a "carry-on", but is deep once you get past the opening.

Acura TSX Buyers: Check the Lights!

Unhappy Acura Owner, 04/02/2010
2010 Acura TSX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
0 of 5 people found this review helpful

Two weeks ago I purchased an Acura TSX. The car seemed acceptable during the test drive. Three days later, I drove it at night for the first time. The HID lights cast a brilliant white curtain at hood level and below. Above the hood there was only darkness! I literally could not see 30 feet in front of me. The dealer said, "I would just have to get used to the lights". This is a severe safety issue. The Infiniti G has HID lights, like the TSX, but they do not cast the same light curtain, I know because I traded the TSX in yesterday for a 2010 G37X.

Almost Great, but 4 is underpowered

I was down to this and the VW CC and made the wrong choice. It's a nice car, handles great, but it's underpowered with the 4 Cyl automatic especially when entering a freeway. Even in manual mode it's inadequate in the all important 40-60 range. If you are thinking of switching from a 6 cyl to the TSX 4, think twice. The TSX had better features for the price, but when you step on the gas at 40MPH and nothing much happens, features don't help. The 6 cyl was $3,000 more (too much). The VW has it where it counts, low end torque. Unfortunately, the VW came only with leatherette(Vinyl) and my wife hated the VW drving position. My guess is Acura will change to the turbo 4 from the RDX next year.
