Any updates from 09 to 10 on the TSX base?

Theres a 2010 at Paragon with lo lo miles, but Im hearing such BAD things about them, Im really leery. I can deal with a lousy salesman and ID never serivce there, but Ive heard some say they bought CPO cars with clean carfaxes from Paragon only to find that the cars WERE in accidents. Thats just insane.

A few 09s to be had at other dealers in the NY/NJ aream but is getting a 2010 good becuase they worked out bugs in that second year?

 

Get a new 09 seriously my 10 has squeaks and rattly speakers and makes change jingly noises. I'm not so sure about this they fixed it talk stuff

 

My 2010 is perfect. Only issue is the sloshing sounds from the fuel tank. (not insulated well). 17,000 miles on it with no problems or issues. My Wife is avg 31.6 per the "mmi" on the dash

 

Revised steering feel and the phone# display in the HFL has been improved.

 

Hate the sloshing....i'd say not insulated at all. it's my biggest complaint so far.

 

i have a 2010. no rattles, bluetooth works perfectly, no pinging, and i've never heard gas sloshing around in the tank.

however, the brakes are designed poorly and squeal every single time i come to a stop. and Acura will not fix it, saying it's normal for these "high performance" brakes. HAHA. embarrassing and unacceptable.

i will ride out this Acura for a few years but i will probably never buy another. also, i'm probably going to slam Acura in the JD and Power survey that just arrived in the mail.

 

I think the differences are not enough to justify paying more for the '10. Your call but that's my .02... like others have stated, love the car but there are some complaints, especially for a car that costs around $30k. Still, these complaints are very minor in the grand scheme of things.

 

To my knowledge, the engine ping was fixed for 2010, and I know the steering was upgraded. The steering is still the car's only significant weakness in my opinion. It's okay in an absolute sense, but not up to par for a sports sedan. Drive it back-to-back with even a Mazda 6, and you'll know what I mean. The Mazda feels incredibly precise on the highway, much more so than the TSX. (From what I've read, even BMW's new electric steering for the 5 Series lacks feel, so Acura's not alone on this. And Infiniti stayed with hydraulic for its new M series to preserve steering feel. Hopefully we can look forward to improved electric assist for the next generation.)

My 2010 has minor, intermittent rattles and clunks, but they actually seem to be disappearing over time. They're so minor I almost feel I shouldn't mention them. I have no problem hearing the fuel sloshing, no brake noise, and no problem with blown speakers. I haven't heard any pinging either, and I've run 89 octane a few times.

I'd recommend going with the 2010 if you have the choice.
