tl...the tsx is a dog...i have gotten one for a loaner on a few ocasions, its a neat car and all, but its just too under powered....it needs to be about 250hp, and its only got like 208....why dont you just switch cars for a few miles and see the difference...

I wonder if they're gonna make a V6 version for the TSX ever. It would be nice to though.

TL will take it all day.

The TSX needed the J30A4 from my car with 240HP. Who knows why acura never made it a option. Of course what does acura do for 2009? They give the TSX 4cyl power only again! What are they thinking!? Atleast the RDX motor would have been a nice upgrade or the J35 from the new accord minus VCM.

TL over TSX anyday

It would take a I/H/E hondata TSX 6MT just to hang with a TL 5AT lol.

I too had a TSX for a loaner for about a week. It picked up... eh... ok.. at lower speeds. Nothing great at all... and I thought it was just pathetic above 70 or so. TL... no problems whatsoever. Dig or roll... from any speed. They are pretty mean if boosted though.

jdmsedan2003, you should compile all of your posts into 1 rather than 6.
