When I was deciding what color to get for my TSX, I was thinking of Red as well..but I loved the Pearl white so I opt for that....i regret it now since I had always wanted a red car. Red in Toronto is rare whereas the PWP is like a dime a dozen.....

Congrats on the new ride and well done with the color . . . .Picked up my 05 RED w/ Ebony this past September . . .Agonized over the color for weeks and couldn't be happier with the decision . . . everyone digs the color (the car looks tight) and there arent a whole lotta red tsx's on the road here in NY/NJ . . . .Enjoy . . . .

Just make sure the top is down and you're good to go. Top down in an NA/NB miata and you're not even sitting in it... feels more like you're sitting ON it. It's great, like your riding a motorcycle or something. Top up feels a little cramped to me (although the 06 miatas are much roomier inside) but an earlier miata with the top down on a nice day really is awesome.

That being said I could never own a miata and would prefer not to be seen in one. Unless it's after my vasectomy. j/k well kinda.
hey, i love the old roadsters. i just hate the miata. i think you need way more than a vasectomy for it to be alright to sit in a miata

And I threw in the old roadsters line because as much as I physically detest the miata (sorry I can't drive with my eyes closed) I was tryin to throw the fans a bone. Every time I see a guy driving one I can't help but laugh. I don't know what it is.
No offense. You can hate me if you want. I know it's nothing of an empirical opinion.

I like the red fine, but not on this car. That same red, while it would look good on an RSX, looks a bit too bright for the TSX. Ditto for the ABP. If you consider the TSX a sports car (I don't), then it's fine, but if you consider it a luxury sedan, bright red (and bright blue) just doesn't seem to fit. It's sporty, but it's not elegant.
What I'd REALLY like to see on the TSX is a really dark red - darker than the TL red - something like black cherry. The red equivalent of RBP. THAT would be AWESOME. Especially if the TSX also got camel leather to go with it instead of parchment... drool...

Meh, different strokes for different folks. I know tons of sports car enthusiasts that wouldn't be caught dead in anything FWD, let alone 3200+ pounds and fwd. I guess I'm just lucky enough to have a lot of love to give, I can appreciate both.

im very suprised. by far Milano red is the most beautiful color on the tsx. i had it on my 94 integra also. it looks unbelieveable clean and turns more heads than a grey or white version. plus, the parchment interior makes it appear very spacious inside. i have gotten at least 2 compliments per day from complete strangers since ive had the car, and i have not regret it AT ALL!!! congrats on owning the most superior color combo acura offers in the tsx.

The solid red just isn't for me either. I've never liked it on any car, except maybe the '57 T-Bird.
I'd love to see the TSX in the deeper red pearl similar to my old Integra's Torino Red Pearl with the quartz grey interior that I got with my Carbon Grey Pearl I ended up with.
