Mazda 3 GT +$16,000 Cdn or an Acura TSX?
$24,500 for a Mazda 3 GT 5 Sp + GFX, Leather, sunroof, 17"
$40,300 for a Acura TSX 5 Sp + Aero kit, Leather, 17"
I rented a Mazda 3 for a 2500km trip last week to Montreal and Ottawa and I have to say I was very impressed. I had the smaller 2L with an auto trans and the car was much more powerful than I expected a 4cly to be. By coincidence I parked it next to a TSX and was mazed at how similar both cars were. I really like the TSX, but I think its overpriced...in fact, a TSX equipped as above actually costs more than a CL-S!
Anyways, I am eyeing the Mazda 3 and the next car for my wife...is the 40 extra HP the TSX generates really worth $16k? Am I missing something?

isnt the TSX 6SPD?
acura all the way!!! =)
this is my opinion why:
Looks (design) -
Engine
Honda/Acura reliability? haha
Cool features (standard/optional) such as NAVI, Bluetooth, HID, 17inch wheels, leather, DVD/MP3, etc
But the choice is still yours. You should get a car that YOU like.
