Red TSX?
#41
Oddly enough, Honda/Acura only seem to offer Red with Tan interiors. I checked the color combo's for 2003 and 2004 Honda Accords and Civics as well as other Acuras and they only offer this combination. My wife has a 1996 Civic and she stated the Red/Tan combination existed back when she bought her car. So.....no sense waiting for a 2005 to get a Red with Black interior. Doubtful it will happen. (NSX is an exception to this rule)

Don't do it. Someone in my apartment complex just got a Red/Parchment no-navi 6MT with spoiler. Doesn't look nearly as good as Black/Parchment (based on my opinion and several other people's comments). I think that a red car looks great when the lines are right, ie when there is enough variation in curves and surfaces to show off the depth of the color. The TSX has great styling, but it is primarily flat surfaces, without a lot of variation. On this car it just looks a little blank.

i'm late to another thread again, but having just brought home a milano red tsx, i couldn't resist adding my perspective...
before i looked at the tsx in person, i was convinced that carbon grey was the only color choice for me. then i saw the color in person and was rather unimpressed. it's a great color and is very sexy, but it just didn't have the 'wow' factor i wanted. then i saw one in milano red with a spoiler and was intrigued. yes, it's bright but the real selling point for me was the combination of the milano red with the parchment interior. why?
well, the parchment interior comes with a wood grain trim in place of some of the brushed metal. to me, that's a classier look and one that will hold up better in the appearance dept for a number of years.
i took delivery of my new milano red tsx last week and it has turned heads each and every place i take it. part of that attraction is the color because it stands out and that's a real selling point for me, i guess. the bonus is that the interior will be more visually appealing later at resale.
well, that's my story and i'm sticking to it. your mileage may vary....
