So my tsx boys and girls, the power of the TSX.....hows it compare to maximas, the TL, g35, etc when you actaully drive it on the road. Acceleration onto the highway.....passing cars on the highway....city driving ....passing someone on an old 2 lane country road...etc.

i dont care about the 0-60 time because i am NOT drag racing anyone.........just wondering what you guys think about REAL WORLD DRIVING and the tsx....all stories and information welcomed!

ps....i should note that i currently drive an 03 civic ex with 127HP and like 110lbs of tourque.....but i am VERY used to driving dad's 03 Maxima with 255hp and 255lbs of tourque which we have nicknamed "the rocketship" cause is so damn FAST!!!

 

Plenty of juice for day to day driving and then some. No question about that.

Test drive, test drive, test drive (as was said in another thread)

 

Make sure your always in the right gear & you should be fine. The 6 spd close ratio gearbox is the closest thing to perfection ive experienced.

 

 

I tested drive the G35 and the Maxima before I bought the TSX. They have much more power than TSX. No need to compare.

If you are looking for muscle / performance car. TSX is not for you.

I don;t mean to offend the other TSX owner coz I am TSX owner too. I just want to tell my point of view.

 

the 03 maxima of course is faster than the TSX

all those other cars you mentioned, G35 coupe or sedan, Maxima/I35, TL, are all faster than the TSX, because they're all V6.

the TSX is fast, for a 4 cylinder car

btw, the only civic i ever liked was the Si, other than that civics are slow and i still don't understand why people mod their civics and think they're so fast.

 

I know its impossible to compare a V6 to a V4.....but i'm trying to get an idea as to where its going to fit in, in relation to my Current car...my CIVIC 127hp, and my dad's MAXIMA 255hp.

TSX...closer to the civics end of speed.....or closer to the MAXIMAS end?

the ONLY mod i did was drop in a DROP IN K&N filter to gain some MPG.....i ALSO hate those DORKS that put $4000 of mods into their civics and try to act cool

 

Closer to Civic and 4 cyl US Accord's speed because the TSX really is just a Euro/Jdm Accord.
The Accord V6 240hp is closer to the 03 Maxima's speed.

 

V4...

 

christ........i was TOO lazy to type it out.....i know ANYONE WITH A BRAIN would know what I am talking about....LOL

 

See i love the POWER and the feeling that if i want to drop the hammer i am going to GO!!!

but i cannot STAND the look of the US accord after seeing the beautiful TSX....

 

Haha, nice try.

You aren't the first to do this mistake, it's a classic. Besides, what is quicker to type? I4, or V4?

 

But, the Acura interior's are totally better than the Infiniti interior's.

It's a pain to read the Infiniti analog clock at night.

 

Trust me.....i am in LOVE with the TSX's interior.......its something special for sure!!! Acura sure knows what they are doing interior wise!! The accord's interior is pretty damn nice too........its just the FRONT end looks like some bug eyed kid, and the rear looks like a girl with a little bit of Tank Ass........why honda....WHY

 

ur talking about the accord sedan right? the coupe looks sexy at the rearend but ur right both the coupe and sedan have that ugly front look.

 

Agree . The interior design is very nice. I like this interior more than the G35, s230 (2004 model), Maxima. A4, BMW 325.

The Interior of the G35 looks like toy ...

 

I though you were out working the dealers with your pro negotiation skillzzzz??? You could have answered this question yourself by just taking a test drive. But you already knew this im sure...pro...GO V4'S!

 

seriously....are you some kinda FAG?

I am going to PITTSBURGH to go work out a deal in 2 weeks........the dealer in cleveland is a cock

and i'm not 100% sold on the TSX....i'm trying to GET SOLD on it, so i asked for input

if your not going to be helpful just DONT RESPOND TO MY THREAD

 

No, I have to respond because your posts are absolute comedy. Have you even test drove one??? Like I said, YOU WOULD HAVE ANSWERED YOUR OWN FUCKIN QUESTION.

Hey bro, your the one talking about COCK. :ghey:

 

 

Don't mess with Timothy Dalton you know.

Roger Moore was the most comedic Bond.

 

Yep. This was just getting interesting. joerockt and bgillette going at it.

 

Yes i have test drove one...........BUT i could not really TEST it because the guy with me was kind of a cock himself........I guess i'll find out the TRUE answer in 2 weeks when i drive another one in Da Burgh

 

and Timothy Dalton was not even a Bond character.......the movie you think he was in was never made,.....its very similar to how i hear people talk about some Rocky V.....there WAS NO ROCKY V....some people talk about these crazy movies that NEVER REALLY EXSISTED

(if you read the sports guy on espn.com i think you will like this post....if not........i hated THOSE MOVIES AND WISH THEY WERE NEVER MADE.....)

 

Interesting. Was he holding the steering wheel for you? Did he have gas and break pedals on his side? Last time I took a test drive, call me crazy, but I was driving the car, which allowed me to steer the wheel and point the car in any direction I wanted to go. F the sales guy...

 

Ya ......but i'll give it a real test when my dad and i head to da burgh....we wont let the sales guy come with us. Up here the acura guy HAD TO COME with me for some reason.....probably because i'm 24 and they think i'll wreak the damn thing

hey joe....no hard ones....i'm just bustin balls. I dont know EVERYTHING....but i know i know more than MOST


SOOOOOOO anyone have any more stories or anything to tell me

 

totally agress with all of u ..... i own a TSX and my mom owns a G35 sedan Fulload
which i think G35 is damn fast and kick any asses in this range of performance the interior is ok seems i got the aero package ... but really i still love TSX's interior and exterior a lot more it's fun to drive and u dont have to spend bug buck to mod the car

 

No hard ones here either. You just have some posts that I (and im sure others) find rather amusing, so I give you a hard time about em Way to sack up and admit it though...

Hmmm, hard ones? Bustin balls? You sure your not :ghey:?? j/k

 

Straight as the lines on the TSX my friend

 

I have no complaints regarding highway or passing power...my TSX gets up and goes just fine.

 

I had a 1.6EL...and that was 127hp, comparable to your civic's, except mine had an acura emblem on it and some standard comfort features...the difference between that and my tsx now is significant, as can be expected w/ an extra 800 or so cc of displacement and better technology...

but u are comparing a 4 cylinder vs. a v6...to me i thought acura did a good job w/ the driveability of this car, and i think the fly-by-wire throttle tech contributes alot to the better pedal response, but u are still comparing apples and oranges...i test drove the mazda 6 and the v6 accord before buying this car, and the difference in torque was apparent...but i still went w/ this car for all the OTHER things it does better than its competition...

 

 

The defense rests your honor... :sqnteek:

 

duped by the thread title yet again....

sleeper, who's hopes were crushed until he read the posts and had some

awww, you guys made up though. how sweet....

 

hahaha...Yea, touching isnt it? :ghey:
