I came very close to getting my 4th Mazda in a row before I got the CR-V, but the SkyActive motor and the AT combo is just too darn slow.
Parents had a 2001 Mazda 6 and it had a few upgrades like Sony Xplod speakers all around, sony xplod deck, and it was a pretty clean car but had 140k when we bought it. I loved that car, it was awesome, sold it with 185k, didn't have any rust. Almost forgot to mention we have a 2011 Mazda3 with 63k on it.

Oh so you put it on yourself to prevent the whole car from being stolen? They could still steal wheels though.

Hey everyone, I thought this would make a great first post. I've had a few cars prior to purchasing my 2013 TSX Sedan this year…all German automakers in the past, the Acura is my first time venturing out of the German world!

First car was a heavily modified 2001 Audi A4 1.8T


then I had a 2007 Audi A4 2.0T S-Line Quattro


After that came two Mercedes', a 2010 C300 with Dynamic Handling Package (I LOVED THIS OPTION!) but I can't seem to find any pictures of this car on my laptop.

Then a 2013 Mercedes C250 Coupe that I had to give up a bit too soon.


In between I had a project car, a 2002 Mk4 GTI VR6, but this car was becoming a money pit and I had to let it go!


and finally…my 2013 TSX Sedan Base

Different league of cars…even compared to the Audi's. The TSX is great for what it is, a solid all arounder/commuter car. I'm driving a lot of miles every month now, and needed something reliable and cost efficient.

The Mercedes' were great cars, I liked the engine on the C300 wayyyy more than the C250 Coupe. And I'd never consider another Mercedes without the Dynamic Handling Package as on my black car. Cars are solid built, very quiet inside and I can honestly say that nothing drives as smooth as a benz.

Yea, I considered the C250, but in the end it was just too boring. Really liked the facelifted C300, but it was too expensive.

Took me a long time to figure out my mistake but once I did things went much better... GM was the mistake.

1980 Chevy Monza
1986 Pontiac Grand Am
1987 Pontiac Grand Am
1990 Buick Regal Grand Sport
1990 Pontiac Grand Am SE
1993 Honda Accord EX (this is when things changed, first car I ever owned more than 2 years lol 10 actually and sold it for 900.00 with 364,000 miles on it!)
2000 Acura Integra Type R
2005 Civic Ex
2007 Toyota Tacoma V-6 Sport Six Speed
2010 Acura TSX Tech- 6 speed

Plan on keeping this one like I did the Accord.
