Same here. Back in late dec 05 i was deciding between an 06 A4 and an 06 tsx. Chose the A4 on a 2 year lease and the chrome around the gearshift bugged me for 730 days of constant so cal sunshine. Loved the car though.
...although come to think of it i like my current tsx wagon even better.

It isn't full-on chrome, but a silver that's more reflective than the trim in my TSX. I sat in a new Accord, and the seats really are excellent. I'm very curious about the drive, especially with respect to steering feel and the effect of the additional torque relative to the TSX. I wouldn't be surprised if the Accord feels like it has more punch in normal driving, but I bet the TSX feels better at high revs.

Agree, on the Accord it is more like a silver finish which is not mirror reflective like chrome. My comment was regarding the hope that the TLX will have more chrome/leather than the Accord. I can't stand the sun glints off the interior of the car. Very distracting and strong sun glints can be a migraine trigger for me. So... deal-breaker on that!
