First Time Acura Buyer-What took me so long?

Just purchased 2008 TSX. 26K and love it. I'm not a boring guy but my last 4 cars were Camry's; I drive a lot for my sales position. It was time to buy a new car and I wanted somthing different, comfortable and fun to drive. The night I drove it home the weather was rainy, cold and I was feeling like I overpaid for it for the first 5 miles...then I drove down the tollay ramp and a smile came across my face and I said to myself, "I should have bought one of these a long time ago." What a pleasure to drive. I like this forum too. Lot's of good stuff here. Thank you.

Welcome, and congrats on your new TSX. I recently got a TL after selling my integra and was considering the TSX. I needed something with a little more power, but still a fan of the TSX.

Congrats and welcome!

Loved reading your story. The description of the smile coming across your face when you drove down the tollway ramp is one of the big reasons why the TSX is such a great car. It handles better than most cars, (including the also terrific TL, which is faster, but carries the extra weight up front).

Good luck with your new car.

You know...I'm a recent new owner of a TSX and I must say...I completely know how you feel when you say that a smile comes across your face. I smile every time I drive it.
