Best & Rare Color Combo

Hi! Can someone tell me what is the offical 0-60 & 1/4-mile? And what is the best & rare color combo? One more thing, can someone post a wood/leather steering wheel pic??

Thanks in advance.

0-60 is anywhere between low 7s to 8.5, depending on the driver and the transmition.

There is no ¼ "Official" time. Most who have tried though, have reported mid 15s.

Welcome here BTW. Don't forget one of our most useful feature: "search button"

I think the Milano Red is the rarest color. It's bright candy red, no texture, no metallic hues, just red. I think if they had gone with the nice maroon that they offer the RSX with, that would have been much more popular.

Premium White Pearl with the ebony interior is not sold here in the states but sounds like a sweet combo.

I had a MSM for two weeks as a loaner, and let me tell you, it is a chick color pure and simple. Looks like a Mary Kay salesperson's car. If you are male, don't even consider MSM.

Sold in Canada. If you live here or travel here often, you might reconsider this color. You'd think PWP TSX's grow on trees here. Funny tho, coz that's the color I bought. I just thought it was the best choice from the color options available (no knock on owners w/ other colors...to each their own!).

But Carbon Grey would've been a serious option for me if it was available in Canada...is this color popular down in the states? I heard it was coming for 05' TSX's in Canada...

Just drove down to Seattle today BTW...only TSX I saw throughout the entire trip was a black one on the highway during my return trip...

Ahh the NBP with Parchment - that's what I got man- you'll love it! I think black is a beautifull color on any car, but it really works well with the TSX's agressive lines while the tan leather makes it seems much more spacious and luxury. The only bad part about the black is it gets dirty really easily and to keep your car looking perfect you'll need to get a car cover or be ready to wash it every week, the tan floormats are even worse - you can see all the dirt from your shoes there. Still, I think it's worth it.

It took us 3 months to get our Black on Black combo via order - apparently when we ordered it (in Atlanta) in April there were none on the east coast that the dealer could find. I'll tell you this - it's a pretty "hot" combo .. sorry

Yeah, black leather does heat up more than the tan from my experience. My friend's C230 would be impossible to get into after being on a lot for a while in the california sun, but my TSX's tan leather hasn't burned me yet. (That is if that's what you meant by "hot")

yep, msm is seriously :ghey:
it's rare for a reason.

sleeper, who is trying to save anyone from getting an msm, which if purchased will lead to nothing but ridicule and the embarrasment that follows shortly thereafter.

props for clutch, tsx hokie, and any cgp fans out there.
