Initially, I thought the TSX was the same size as the Civic.
Not until I took a look at both car side by side.
The Civic has a very short engine bay with a tiny engine.
The trunk is just a little bit shorter then the TSX.
With the short engine bay and a shorter trunk, it makes the Civic body as long as the TSX.
So, they both look about the same size from an angle.

But in fact, the TSX is wider and longer than the Civic.

If you look at the Honda measurements on their website, the TSX interior is actually smaller in many ways in the the Civic's, for example rear legroom. I was really surprised.

And the Civic has a very nice flat floor in the back.

No you're not. It's a glorified Civic.

The 6 has a V6 and 220 hp, but if you look at acceleration figures in Car & Driver they are actually identical. As usual Honda does more with a smaller engine.


And yes, the IS300 does look like a souped-up Civic.
I agree, the 6 looks most like a TSX from the front. The back of the TSX is actually quite unique. Slightly like a camry in that the light clusters are thin rectangles, but that point wrapping around the sides and the circular lights are quite distinguishing.

Anyway, the one 6 I have been in felt worse than a civic... of course, that was the non-leather one.

The IS300 looks like a corolla.
