I'm trying to decide whether or not to get a TL or the TSX. At first I was only looking at the TL but now I'm starting to give the TSX much more consideration mainly because its style is growing on me and the $$

It seems like as far as options go they both are pretty much the same except that the TSX has an mp3 player and the tl has the bluetooth. Are there any other major differences I haven't looked at?

Please give me some help.

Thanks in advance

 

i went through the same road youre going through right now buddy. as per my sig, i went with the TL. why? because it IS the TSX and more. more torque, more HP, more features, more bling. you do get a lot for your money with the TSX but a lot more with the TL. it all boils down to your choice. whatever makes you happy i guess. GOOD LUCK!

 

go with what you can afford. cant go wrong with either car. do your home work, make a decision and stick by it, no regrets down the road.

 

If you have afford the TL, get it...

I went in with the TSX in mind, but ended up with the TL in my garage and I am a extremely happy with that choice...

The only major issue for me is the blind spot area with the TL...I went from a 00 TL to the 05 back on Dec 16, but am still trying to get used to the blind spots when I am changing lanes (over a month later)...

Good luck with your choice...

 

the only thing that ive heard about the TSX that is better than the TL well 2 things actually.....is i heard the handling is much better and that people like the option to play MP3's on their TSX's other then that i would personally go with the TL because its faster...sleaker looking...you have the HFL....its just worth every penny

 

don't waste your time with the TSX. It is so unrefined it's not funny. I'd rather buy a used 5 series than get a TSX if I couldn't afford a TL. Spend the extra $$ you won't regret it.

crujones_1814, you prolly should post this Question at TSX forum, too... Good luck to your purchase.

 

Based on the huge engine difference...cars are basically in two different classes.

 

Exactly. These cars are not in the same category. Apples and Oranges.

Pick which you like best - these are two very distinct choices. It was easy for me to pick the TL - others it was easy to pick TSX. It's all about what suits you.

I think, it depends on what you want to do with the car... Both cars are great cars for the price, I went through the same thing. Deciding between the TSX and the TL, the Tl wont have very much aftermarket support, the TSX will... because it is the Euro Accord. But if you're just looking for a car and not plan to do very much with it, I suggest going with the TL.

 

If money is an issue go with the TSX, its a wonderful car. The auto is too slow for my vein, but the manual is a lot faster and a joy to drive. If money is really not an issue go with the TL apart from being slightly less nimble it is superior to the TSX in every way. The six speed TL is almost as nimble and with the summer tires has quite more adhesion than the TSX. If the TSX came with a 240 HP s2000 engine I would have bought it That would be the ultimate sleeper!!!!

 

if your going to get a TSX for 27-29 and a TL for 33-35 depending navi or not. For the extra 5 grand you get a bigger and better machine. I went down the same road. I couldnt see myself spending 29g on a 4banger.

 

TSX is a perfectly, wonderful car.....so long as you don't test drive the TL.

 

it is apples 2 oranges, but slicing or peeling, you get a great deal either way!!!

 

I had a 2004 TSX for little over a year and made the mistake of driving a TL......big difference....if you can afford it, do it.
