favourite thing about your tsx?

hey guys...i've had my car for 4 days so far and i'm loving it every bit. i'm always looking for excuses to drive it. imagine a 28 yr old so giddy! haha...it's halarious.

what is your absolute favourite thing about your tsx? i know it's hard cause there's tons of things that you like, but try to narrow it down to one thing.

also...whats your least favourite thing about the tsx? this should be easier then the first. nice hard edges...not bubbly like or round like the accord coupe.

ok...my absolute favourite thing i'd say is the looks. the car looks soo damn sexy!

my least favourite thing is....not being able to see the trunk lid while reversing. i'm not a midget or anything i'm 5'10". i sorta wish i had a spoiler so it would give me some depth perception when reversing.

Love: 6 speed

Love runner-ups - cause there's too many to just list one: handling, looks, navigation, voice recognition

Hate: Navigation boot-up disclaimer that you always have to press OK to get out of (more of an irritant than a hate, but the first thing I would change if I could). Damn lawyers - I'm surprised we don't have to OK a disclaimer saying Honda is not at fault for our driving before we even start the car. :thumbsdn:

Favorite thing -- I have to go against your guideline, and say that my favorite single thing is the whole thing -- because really the amazing thing about TSX is the overall combination and balance of all the aspects.

Least favorite thing -- I know that most people rave about the headlights, but for me they're a significant comedown from the TL-S, whose lights (even on low beam) shined way out there.

What's even worse is that final OK that you have to do!

Just when you think you're done -- sometimes after a whole series of steps, including a couple of OK's -- you have to hit OK again! I'm like, "Hey, why tf would I have gone thru all that stuff if I didn't want to go there?"

Favorite Thing: The dashboard lighting, especially at night!

Least Favorite: Those annoying door locks in the front.

Otherwise, great car.

My favorite thing on the TSX is the handling feel ... I just love it. It drives so much smaller than it is. Tight is right

I would say the 6MT is a close 2nd ... I might never go back to AT again ... ok ... maybe when I get that SMG M3

My fav things are the handling, the 6-speed, and the beautiful interior.

My biggest disappointments have been the sound system, and the rattles.

NAVI (that was for you Larchmont ) with voice recognition is definately my favorite part.

Closely second are the HIDs. I just love em!

My least favorite part is the stupid NAVI disclaimer.

Favorites:
1. Handling. Feels so tight. So fun.
2. 6 Speed MT. I commute everyday on the freeway, and it rocks.
3. The smoothness of the shifter. Like buttah.

Honestly hard to find dislikes. Maybe the fact that there isn't a great spot to put my left elbow while driving. And how's this for nitpicking....the honk when you lock the car with the remote is too loud. That's all I can come up with.

You'll appreciate that when you forget where you left your TSX in a parking lot.

so you can still lock it with your key, save the horn and not annoy the neighbers, can't you?

I live in an apartment complex, and I'd hate to be a rude asswipe.

Looks like there's a lot of misunderstanding on this.

Yeah, that's right what you said -- but sounds like you think you get the "honk" whenever you lock the car with the remote.

You don't. It honks only if you press "lock" a second time.
