2010 non tech TSX
Hi guys, I'm retiring my RL and I'm looking to get a TSX. I saw a 2010 TSX and it look like a base model without the navi. It just has a small screen on top of the dash console. Anyway, it has about 29k miles on in and the dealer wants 20k$ for it. Is it a good deal or not? Is there any maintain coming up so I can negotiate with the saleman lol. BTW, how about the MPG? I know it has good MPG, but I just want know what are you guy getting. I hope to get a reply ASAP and Thanks for checking.

Just wondering isn't a RL to a TSX a downgrade? lol... both in different categories and different price ranges, and yes I know yours isn't a newer RL but still.

Around the DC area, that's a decent price. Not sure what area you're in though. Just make sure you buy from a reputable dealer a lot of dealers are selling cars with dirty carfaxes

TSX AMG Type //M i-VVT
that's a good price. mine was a 2010 base, 45k for $21k.

Thanks for all of your reply guys. The car is at a Capitol Honda dealer (408 area) and it is the only TSX there beside I don't know it is certified not. They have some 2011 certified running around $25k at an Acura but I think is out of my budget. What about the recall for 2009-2012 because of the oil deposit or burning on the ring, do I have to worry about that too? Thanks.

Ok, guys. I just test drive the car but I don't know I felt the steering is a little heavy and the ride is bouncy ( or you can call it sporty?) Is this normal? Other then that the car is in a really good condition, and it still has Acura warranty for 60k. I have been driving the RL for a really long time and I really enjoy its that's probably the reason lol. I drove my sis 09 Camry and I have to say the TSX steering is heavier than the Camry. Anyway, the sale guy told me that I can have it for $18,900. I'm planning to go for a test drive a 012 TSX with 21k miles for $24k tomorrow; and compare from there. OMG, never know buying a car with such headache.

And what to watch out for? The typical noises that tell you a car has been beaten on. Other than that, these are Honda made so they take a beating. Just make sure all the terms of the warranty or an extended warranty are laid out before you get into the finance office.

Ok, I just got back from the dealer. At first, I went to an Acura unfortunately they did not have any preowned TSX. However, I saw a 2010 TSX at a Honda just across the street. I test drive the car and I have to say its ride is pretty good, notice I did not take this car to the freeway. I just drove around the street. Anyway, the sticker prize is $20,981.00 with 22K miles. It was a lease car and the guy showed me the carfax; he said the maintenance is up to date.
The final prize for the car is $25,417.35 includes tax, dealer paper works, smog and with Lojack($825), Phantom footprint($99), Envirogaurd($1,079.0).
Pass or not?

Make sure you check the rear brakes, at 30k the must be worn out since most 2010 TSX had this problem on rear brakes
I got my 10 TSX V6 with 30k and dealer had already replaced new rear rotors and pads and 4 new tires.

As for the heavy steering, you might prefer a 2011 or later, because due to complaints about the 2010, the steering was adjusted for much less effort at low speeds, which makes parking maneuvers easier. I noticed this immediately when I got a 2012 as a loaner. At higher speeds, they feel identical, and I think it was a worthwhile change.

Ok, I'll take note of that. Anyway, how reliable is this 2gen TSX? After I have read the "problem and fixes" section it looks like the car has a lots of problem, for example the burning oil consumption! I need it to last for a 100K before I trade it in lol. I will get the Acura extended warranty for sure which they cover up to 100K, I hope!

My 2010 has been extremely reliable. Aside from replacing the rear brakes, refilling the freon for the A/C, and replacing the front struts at about 60k miles, it's needed nothing beyond scheduled maintenance. After six years in a VW and eight in a Saab, this has been refreshing to say the least. The strut replacement was a bummer, but I live in downtown Philly and often drive around the NYC area, where sport suspensions take a serious beating. My (excellent) repair shop said it was essentially normal wear.

Yeah idk about RL to TSX being an upgrade, specially if you used to that 300hp, AWD and rear seat comfort and the like. Honestly I had a Legend before my TSX and even felt some subtle downgrades from that switch.
#24
Yeah, it is definitely a downgrade but I need something that have a good MPG.
Anyway, I need your help guys, I have two TSX to choose from and I need your opinions on it.
First: certified 2012 TSX special edition with only 4,000 miles for $26,977. Warranty 12 months plus 7 years/100K.
Second: Loaner 2013 TSX base 4,000 miles for $27,988.
Which one is a better deal? And I not sure about the loan TSX. I think people are abusing the car pretty bad lol. I saw the interior and it had a lots of black mark on the rear seat. What is so special about the special edition? I saw it only have the red gauge and the lip kit. Thank you very much
BTW, a 2013 tech pck 4,700 miles for $29,899.

I had a '10 base TSX I traded at 32k miles for a '13 Accord. I had to replace all the door lock motors, the battery, and also had to turn (machine) all 4 rotors in 2 years but that was about all. I liked the car, but the display without navi sucked IMO.
You could score a new base model for $26-27k more than likely. I got $18k for mine on trade, but it had been in an accident. Too bad the guy who bought it the next day wasn't told that, or that I had free alignments and oil changes for the life of the car
