As it's new, I'm trying to keep the RPMs under 3000, but I'll admit that I went as high as 4000 a time or two.
Would like to drive it into work tomorrow, but with all the slushy crap on the roads, I think it'll stay in the garage tomorrow...I'll wait until all of this snow (at least on the road itself) melts away.

One of the best gearboxes around
6 Speed in the house !
This really adds to the driving experience of this automobile.
Overall the US prefers Automatics, the Europeans prefer standards. Honda generally projects about 70% Automatic sales in the US.

I've had my 6MT TSX for almost six months, save a week. The car nearly has 5,000 miles on it. Time for her first oil change this month.
6MT was fine when brand new, but it gets even better as the miles add up.

6MT here. That smooth little shifter is what sold me on the TSX. At stoplights I routinely find myself rowing through the gears for fun (this is probably bad for the tranny, but oh well). I just wish the gear ratios were more intelligent (1st and 2nd should have been closer, 6th a little taller).
