I bought the TL and although I test drove the TSX it was never a serious option for me. It's too underpowered for me and the TL looks much better IMO. If I got anything other then the TL it wouldn't have been an Acura. The 330i was a very nice test drive and was the only other option for my tastes. Too bad the BMW's are so overpriced.

ANYONE who thinks the Accord V6 "feels" luxurious is smoking crack or has not driving a true luxury car. I'm tired of people comparing the Accord to the TSX or TL. The Accord feels cheap. The Accord's interior does not even compare.

By no mean the new Accord with leather feels cheap. The interior is pratically the same as the TSX, even if it no match for the TL. But I prefer the TSX/Accord's dash to the TL.

Just test drove my friend's AT TSX. She bought her car on the same day as I got my car. Anyway, I my thoughts were the same. TSX is a fun car to drive. Underpowered, but fun. I also thought fit and finish were better. The leather felt more durable. Then again, I only been driving it for about 15 mins. None the less if TSX came with more power or better yet V-6. I might of chosen the TSX.

Until the vibration is gone the TSX was more fun, the TL could be but I spend part of my drive wishing it didn't vibrate. The TSX was smooth as glass sooooooooo.

It's really interesting that so many people also noted that the fit and finish in the TSX was better. I wonder if it's because the TSX is made in Japan, while the TL is made in Ohio?

I was thinking about that too. Also, some of TL's that we have assembled around the holiday season, maybe this has something to do with it?:p

Since getting used to some vehicles from Japan, I like the way they assemble the cars. They seem to have the better attitude and standard to do so.
