There was a recent post about 3 changes you would make, I agree with most sound like great suggestions. I am very close to pulling the trigger on a new TSX but need some encouragement...

From having the TSX as a loaner(auto) and from my test drives (manuals) the three features I love are:

1 Drive train -fun high revving Honda vetch mated to a best in the business 6 speed manual. (Seriously - I drive a Fusion right after I drive the TSX and was disappointed when the vtech never kicked in...)

2 Size - bigger than the Civic Si I am also seriously considering, room for two kids but also small enough to be powered by a fuel efficient 4cyl and not feel under powered.

3 USB iPod interface - I have not played with this feature but it sounds really nice.

Overall the TSX seems like a feature loaded sporty, efficient sedan that meets all my needs.

-JJ

 

1. iPod - What can I say?



2. Trip Computer - Fun and really helps better mileage



3. Nav - Much improved over my '01 MDX

 

1. Safety features (HIDs, airbags, active headrest) and crash test ratings!!
2. Perfect size with excellent powertrain
3. High quality interior...and the best looking Acura exterior (although that is not saying much)

 

The VTEC for the TSX is not nearly as noticeable as it was on the 1st gen. And the dynos show it:



But I digress:

1) 60/40 split seats! (huge for snowboarders)
2) Love the sportier suspension (well, if you come from driving camry's)
3) iPod integration

 

So, the engine is indeed significantly better...i like the more useable power!

 

1. USB iPod Integration
2. Doesn't look as "old man-ish" (as my wife put it) as the '06 G35 sedan I came from.
3. Overall interior and thick steering wheel.

 

1. USB Integration (sometimes I feel this was the biggest factor in me getting it)
2. More useable power (this is just what I "feel")
3. More aggressive look and stance.

 

1) 6 speed manual - tight/short and buttery smooth
2) Smooth/high gloss/high metal flake paint
3) whole interior creature comfort experience - seats/guages/steering wheel/lighting/ergonomics/nav/stereo

 

1.) Great 6MT shifter. Is why I bought the car
2.) USB Integration
3.) Sedan size, body style look and feel

 

On an unrelated note, Tony Orlando and Dawn?

 

1. Interior
2. Safety
3. Ipod Integration + Bluetooth

 

I cannot say there are 3 things I really like about my TSX. I like the whole car in general. It honestly puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. IMO it is truly a fantastic car.

 

Colin - What can I say? At least on random it didn't come up with "Englebert Humperdink". 70's and 80's had the best music in my opinion. I guess my music speaks my age.

 

1. Exterior Styling
2. Comfy and luxurious leather interior
3. 200hp out of a fuel-efficient 4 cyl. connected to a silky 6 sp. manual

 

No worries, I think I have 'After the Loving' somewhere too! I suppose it could have been worse..... Shaun Cassidy, Bay City Rollers, Donny Osmond or (gasp) Debbie Boone

 

ACK!

Good gawd, and I thought *I* was old.
