TSX, best car you've ever bought?

Well, for me yes, because it's the first car i've ever bought!

The last 2 Accords (88 and 99) i've had have been hand me downs from my folks, which was nice cause I didn't have to worry about car payments.

Now the only dilemma I have is:

Finding a 2nd car i buy will have to live up to the high standard that the TSX has lived up to and has given me the excitement to drive on the road. With a nice interior and navi to boast.

I am all of 22 years old and have had 4 new cars and 3 pre-owned(and driven virtually EVERY car made in the last 15 years). My cars ranged from $700-45k and so far I like the TSX the best, its not the fastest thing on the road by any stretch of the imagination. That being said I kind of like getting close to 30MPG, a very quite ride, great steering feedback and responsivness the ability to seat 4 comfortably. I don't think this car is the BEST at anything but it does everything very well. My one complaint was I wish the brakes were a little better- but I have driven cars with horrible brakes so its not unsafe by anymeans, I just feel there is little room for improvement.

Enjoy your car - stop looking forward! That 'dilemma' should be a ways off, eh? Besides, we all know you'll be in a G35 in 2 years

I love my TSX, but my Modena is better.

Its a toss up between my TSX and my 98 GS-R. Alot of you probly think I'm nuts but there was something special about that Integra and its 8100RPM redline. It was also more problem free thus far than the TSX.

The Dart was my first car, a POS but it ran, and I was happy just to have a car. The IROC-Z was my sports car, fast, cornered well, torque up the yin-yang, and it got the "go-fast" out of my system. The Integra was a pure joy. Easy to drive, fun, reliable, good mileage. Now the TSX is my more mature car. Bigger and more refined than the Integra, my first 4-door sedan, but still retains a little bit of the fun. Is it the best car I ever owned? Maybe. Only time will tell. If it lasts and runs as well as the Integra then, yes.

Based on what options the TSX has, yes it's the best.

Based on overall build quality, it's the worst. My 2000 Prelude was solid and never went to the shop for anything in 2.5 years.

No, my ITR is the best car I bought. 2nd would be the Evo.
The TSX is a great car, and is great as my daily driver, but I have had more probs w/ this car then the ITR and Evo combined!
