tsx loaner

its a quality 4 cylinder that needs more torque. as i am coming home down a mile long downhill stretch i punch it and it goes to 110 with some effort. my cl def will get me there quicker.
it takes a bit longer to start the car compared to my cl. initially pulling out is torqy(sic) whatever. the steering is very tight as it responds to even the quickers wrist flick of a turn.
inside is very masculine and the interior feels nice once you drive it. the one thing that this tsx did not have was the passenger mirror that tilts down in reverse but i do like the signal lights on the mirrors.
i think the rear view mirror blocks more of my view thru the windshield, i think its b/c u r seated closer to the windshield. seats feel good. plenty of room in the center console but my cl has more. i thought the power moonroof took a long time to close,there were a few times that i found i had not closed it all the way(oops)!!

the ride is a little more tight and bumpy but soft enough for long trips. i guess the sam size rims/tires are on the cls. i may have to get cls rims/tires for my non type s
the color was silver so i didnt think it stuck out as well as say blue, but where i live i have never sen a tsx so it doesnt matter, up here they are a bunch of inbreds that soup up a cavalier POS
overall nice fit and finish and power for a 4 cylinder, if u want more power go for the tl
if i had to pick between the tsx and my cl, i would stay with the cl, more power, tilting mirror and it looks classy

Last week, I got a TSX loaner when I brought my CLS 6sp in for the 7500 mile service. Nice package for an auto but greatly under powered.

tsx, mdx = acuras for chicks

Not that there is anything wrong with them, just seem much better suited for female drivers. MDX is too mini-van, TSX is underpowered. Kind of like volkswagens...great cars, just not for a guy to drive.
