TLX>ACCORD but if one wants to settle for less .... it's their $$
My negotiated price for the Accord Sport was $22649.81 before tax and tags. TLX Base is listed at $31,915. Even if you get it at $30,000 before tax and tags it is $7400 more! It is not worth the price.

Of course this is your option. It is sure amazing all the stuff you get for the $7,400.00. However if your happy with a Honda Accord... then more power to you.

As others have said, if you are happy with your purchase, then cool. As for trying to convince us that you got more for your money.... that's a tough sell. If you did a side by side comparison of the 2 cars you mention, your sport model is stripped down version measuring feature by feature. I am not saying your car is a bad car at all. Honda hit it out of the ballpark with the Sport model!

No need to justify your purchase. You spent less money and feel you came out ahead, enjoy the car.

It is to me. Especially if you can afford the difference. Accord Sports dont even come with XM radio, unless they changed it for 2015. Comparing a base model Accord with fancy wheels to a TLX is apples to oranges.
