Thinking about a TSX help!?!

Looking for a car for my girlfriend. We just sold her IS300. It was a nice car that got lots of looks and compliments but it got like 15-20mpg and we had some problems with it. Possibly thinking about an used TSX. Other cars are the new 09 Fit, Audi A3, and some others. I got a big thread over at evom where I always post: http://forums.evolutionm.net/showthread.php?t=364659

Reason for thinking about a TSX is we've both had Hondas before and they were the best, easiest, great gas mileage, reliable cars we've had. Originally looking only at the Fit I stopped by the Acura dealer just to show her the TSX and she instantly fell for it. We want a 06+ Navi. Auto or manual don't matter only color we don't want is red and no tan interior. I found this one and was wondering if it was anyones here or anyone that knows if its good or bad.

This one: http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/804301793.html

Any suggestions? Thanks I posted this at that other site also trying to get maximum feedback and maybe someone possibly knows the car.

You should get the TSX. I love mine; great on gas, and I get complimented on how great it looks. I bought a Caron Greay Pearl, Navi, auto.

Yeah I love the grey/gunmetal color the tsx has. I actually like them all besides red and silver.

Get the TSX

I looked at the A3, and the BMW 1 series. For the money you can't get a better car out there than the TSX. I've had for 3 months now, got Black, 6speed, with Navi. I love this car. I've averaged 30 mpg, gotten as high as 33, and no lower than 27. Handling could be a little tighter, but some of the most comfortable seats I've ever sat in. Stereo is WOW....ever thing is voice controled, and blue tooth built in telephone great for hands free operation.
Totally endorse this car for its comfort, sportiness, great great looks, and a gas tank that never seems to register empty.

06 gets thumbs up also

My brother has the 06. Has 95,000 miles and has only done oil changes. He loves the car, and is about to trade in on an 09 because his lease is up.
The handling was tighter on the 06 than the 09's.

Thanks that's good to know. Did you test drive the a3 or 1? I was actually thinking I'd try out the 135i for myself. A tune and downpipe/exhaust on those things and your at 400whp 450wtq which is crazy. But I don't think I'd get rid of the evo for one.
