Wow I saw 8 TSX's within 24 hours.

Down here in Urbana Champaign I know of only 4 TSX's mine and 3 girl's APB, SSM, and NHB (all auto's) But tomorrow is the Michigan vs Illini football game and there are tons and tons of out of staters here to show their support. And I swear all these plates were unique. I saw two TSX's on the way to dinner. A CG on the way back. and another SSM while waiting for a stop light. Then another NHB (tinted) drive down Green St.

Any of you guys on the forum down here tonight??

I felt like there were less civic's on the road tonight then TSX's. Wish I bought that NSX

Here in Toronto TSX is just as common as Civic. One day I saw 4 pearl white TSXs in 5 minutes, two of them have spoiler.

Very true in Toronto....just yesterday when i got news the dealer just picked up the last 2004 PWP in Canada (or was it North America) that at after dinner to a local liquor store (5 minute drive) I saw 3 whites, one red, a silver and the Canadian exclusive purplish plue TSX....Then i realized the TSX is so common!! and that i should have perhaps optioned for the Red instead

But the white is still tops on my list

i was on my way to work one day and i was on this 3 lane bridge which was about 3 miles long...i had the middle lane and when i looked back there were 2 tsx's and 1 tl...i slowed down a little and somehow 3 of us ended up side by side and the tl was behind...none of us knew each other...i thought that was pretty cool...what made it even nicer was...up ahead i saw a bmw 3 series on one side and an audi on the other...i sped up to just ride up on them and the other acura's followed my lead and we all 4 kinda just rode beside the bmw and audi....kinda felt nice....and i thought it was pretty cool that none of us knew each other but when we spotted the other cars we all had the same ideas...

I'll have mine in Champaign for homecoming in 2 weeks. Class of '03!

I started a new job recently in Northbrook and I commute north from the Oak Brook area and notice at least 3 to 4 unique TSXs each day on 294 or Willow Rd...of course I expect that in a high class area but I never see any by me and up there they seem to be everywhere!!

By the way, are the 3 girls at U of I that have them hot? Are they single? They should consider us over other guys for our good taste!

Drigo: I sorta had that same feeling before back in the days when i had my Acura Vigor back i hte early 90s.

I was driving on the highway in my 92' white ACura Vigor...suddenly a white Acura Legend was beside me...then a lil while later a white Acura NSX was pulling up fast behind us.....

We cruised at a same pace ...pretty funny..and pretty cool as we almost had the whole Acura lineup there in white (only one missing was the Acura Integra.....

Unfortunately we had to stop as we went on our own separate ways as one of the cars had to exit....pretty cool feeling

Well I find that rather coincidental...

Here in NJ, I might see one per day, often none. Today, I saw nine. A CG, two NBPs, a Milano Red, a White, three SSMs, and surprisingly, a MSM! A special day when I see a MSM...

Four in Summit, five in Morristown.

I loved having a car that few others had, but those days are slowly coming to an end, it seems...

You guys all live in the wrong town!!

I'm in a town of 25k, and the only Acuras I see are 1 blue RSX and 1 white CL on a regular basis. Have never seen a TSX in town.

I regularly drive to the much bigger city of Dayton, and even there it is exceedingly rare for me to see a TSX. 1 SSM on UD campus, that's about it.

Gotta luv it!!

Darn, I wanted a car that people rarely have like the TSX. So do you think it is as common as the Accord? It seems like everyone has the Accord. So if a lot of people have the TSX, why is the resale value high? I though it was due to less people having the car. Do you see a lot of the 2007 carbon gray ones?

I see a lot of TSX's now either driven by guys in their 20s to early 30s, 40-50 yr old women, and I saw a senior citizen probably in his 70s driving a TSX. I had to do a double take on that one. Shouldn't he be driving a Buick instead?

There were several tsx's on the Edens this morning. At one point we were three wide. I have started to notice more and more of them around.

Hey, I can see the mall from my office window!

I am starting to see a lot more TSXs in the area now verses 1 or 2 years ago. There are 3 silvers, 1 royal blue, 1 carbon grey and 1 black just on the 3rd floor of the Century Plaza Towers parking garage. Hello follow owners!

Hey I was there too. The CGP is mine . I went there to see The Kite Runner Movie.
Man I never seen as many TSX in one parking lot. It sounds like there is more TSXs in Beverly Hills/Century City more then anywhere else

I shook my head at a blue TSX on Cross-County Highway here in Cincy with a massive pep-boys wing on it, you know the "racing style" kind and other terrible mods to it. Count yourself lucky when you just see stock TSXs.
