Go with TSX man...no worry about spending money for timing belt as they are using chain belt, is that right??? about power I know lots of people complaint of being lack of pwr, but hey...gas price is not co operating anyway, so u can always spend more money from the gas bill on something u need for yourself or else.

The TSX tranny is solid as is the Accord's. Good Luck with whatever you get.
