heh thanks for the warm welcome. Yeah today I went with my parents to test drive the two cars they are 'considering getting me' (i want the Tsx!). We test drove the Acura Tsx and the Toyota Camry (my dad loves it....). I fell in love with the Tsx the moment i saw it, then i saw the TL... Yeah so I'm tryin to convince my dad to get the Tsx for me instead of the Camry, but I need some figures on how the Tsx is better. Anyone have any links ??
Thx

Yes, welcome.
Since "better" is incredibly subjective, maybe the best thing to tell your pa is the TSX (with a higher price) may have better resale value. It's pretty weak but it's all I've got right now.

Welcome noob.
I'd definitely mention safety ratings to your dad. Emphasize all the airbags and 4 and 5 star impact ratings. Parents want their kids to be safe.

Alrighty I will tell him about the great safety features of the TSX, but he has wanted to get a Camry for a long time... even if its for me. But I got my mom to be on my side in this battle hehe, so she can work the magic on pops to get teh car. And yeah i am a noob

Since there aren't major differences and the TSX '04 is still selling strong, I doubt the price drop will be significant. If dad's paying for it who cares?

Well right now I'm really liking the Carbon Gray....and yeah many of you may have that but its an amazing color! I always wanted that dark pearly dolphin color, so that is most likely wat i will get. I like the blue also, but the interior doesnt come in the camel color, like the TL. Would quartz be a nice color on the carbon gray? My mom doesn't like the ebony leather b/c she thinks it will get to hot in the car, but does it matter that much since it is leather?? thx guys nice cars by the way, props to Accsuperstar, i think i will follow his mod list

Welcome to the board! I joined only recently, too.
The TSX is definitely cooler than the Camry. There're tons and tons of Camrys around, but very few TSXs. Why get something everyone else and their mother already has?
Good luck with convincing the parents on the TSX!

I just ordered my CG last weekend too! The TSX is the way to go! You should be able to get a good deal on an 04 model. I'm from MA and I paid $27000 (MSRP I believe was $29085) for a 6MT/NAV/Ebony interior.
