TSX a 10 Best Winner, again??
I was bored so I put "Acura TSX" in the search button on Community Webshots and what came up came to me as a surprise. It was a 2006 TSX and when i read the caption, it said 10 best winners and it seems as though the person who owns the pictures is from Car and Driver. I don't really know what it is so you can take a look for yourself but to me, it looks like the TSX is a 10 Best Winner AGAIN!!!

Nice find.....
The decesion I'm sure has been made since it should be in January's issue and the fact that some new cars are also listed gives it more credence.
Congrats once again TSX.

That's great to hear. I wonder if Car and Driver is basing their decision on the '05 and then assuming how the '06 changes will improve performance, etc. The picture looks like and '05, so they probably didn't get a "pre-release" '06 to test drive for the article.

Awesome!!
I also turned on the TV this morning, and it was on the Discovery HD channel (of all channels) from the night before, and guess what I see?
The new commercial for the 06 TSX!!! It was pretty cool, it shows the TSX going through a city. The vehicle is sort of transparent, and you can see people kind of flying in and out of it and sitting in it as if they are in their living rooms.
Congrats to the TSX for another award

The only way to be considered for the 10best if not a new model is to be on the list the previous year.

Not to discredit C&D but they always had a bias towards BMW and Honda... I'm not saying that the TSX doesn't deserve the spot (heck it's my second TSX so I beleive they are great cars)...
There's never been a 10 best without at least a Honda. Don't get me wrong, I own 3 hondas so I love them 2...
Cheers
