Just saw Dateline NBC earlier tonight, glad to know that the TSX safety is up there with the more expensive comparative midsized sport sedan.

Um... what do you mean? it doesn't rank the side impact testing too highly on our TSX.

I know Acceptable isn't that bad tho since the design of the TSX are 3 years old, Oviously the BMW and Lexus are rated higher at Good because their models are redesigned especially the Lexus IS. Can't expect older designed cars to do better compared to the newly designed IS.

Providing a link to the actual IIHS results.

The TSX did pretty well for a three year old design -- the TSX protects the rear passenger very well, and the TSX received a rating of "good" for the driver's head/neck and torso.
