Spotted: Acura Tsx

[Hakkola]

4 door rsx, duel exhaust, chrome window sills and such, looked pretty good, kinda looked like a Mazda 6 though.:dunno:

Anyone know about a TSX?

[jdmakkord]

I'm test driving one on saturday!!!! Awesome little sedan, either 6 speed manual or 5 speed auto. 200hp 2.4 I4, standard leather and all of the other goodies.

[Hakkola]

Got any torque #'s?

[G]

I test drove the 6speed brought the car back and the sales lady asked is that the clutch burning? hhahahaha...really under powered for 39K imo

[Hakkola]

That's what I was thinking, that's why I asked for the torque rating.

$34900 166foot lbs tq

Anyone know about a TSX? not quite a 4 door rsx....its actually not based on the same platform. its basically an accord that looks tons nicer and has a peppier engine...they just took the 2.4l ivtec and upped hte compression to push 40 more hp and a fw more lbft of tq. all the stuff u listed is pretty much stock...i personally prefer the euro accord which is dechromed and has a really nice oem bodykit...

tsx is sposed to handle well and compete against a4 1.8t and bmw 3 series...

[Hipermax_d]

i rather buy an accord sedan with 240hp

[jdmakkord]

umm I'd rather buy the tsx which is the accord euro-r which we cant get here!!! Its smaller, and chances are it handles better, and is faster than the accord V6!

My girlfriend is deciding between that and the mercedes 230 coupe. I'm leaning towards the tsx though

She's going for practicality, and 4 doors now:D Kinda like mine, only mine isn't soooo practical!!!! Its her first car, I dont think she'll complain about a tsx now!

[04blackMAX]

Yeah, but its ugly!!!

[04blackMAX]

nahhh man lower that put a set of 19-20's on that thing......PIMP

[jdmakkord]

Thats ok, but a set of 19's on a TSX would look pimp too!

[04blackMAX]

true that......iam not an acura fan...but yeah 19s would look money

[jdmakkord]

It did come down to the accord coupe v6 or the 230, but I'd rather that she got the tsx anyways. More fun for me.

Its smaller, and chances are it handles better, and is faster than the accord V6! actuallly, the accord euro r uses a 2.0L engine that uts out 220hp and the euro r is way lighter and stiffer than the tsx....euro r has recaros and other "r" goodies that the tsx doesnt.

[max_boost]

A white TSX with OEM kit+wheels would look absolutely stunning!!! :bigpimp: haha

[syeve]

they are really pimpin' cars...just went to see one...very nice interior and exterior styling. The white is sexy!!!! projection HID's too!!

Close enough for me:thumbsup:

[ecstasy_civic]

i saw one kind of racing a silver accord coupe v6 the other day, it wasnt the newest coupe though and it had altezza's:thumbsdow

anyways the tsx sounded really nice and it was pretty close too.

[kevie88]

There's a white one in the parking lot where I park.. very nice car!

[three.eighteen.]

saw a silver one today...im kinda disappointed, the front looks nice but the back and sides look like they could use an extra line somewhere (body kit much?)

I test drove one last August and I like the 200hp in my V6 better than the 200hp I4 in the TSX.

I would have spent the extra $5K for a TL. But I am sure you will like it better than your Accord.

Did you sell your Accord? Been very tempted to sell my coupe but not sure what I would replace it with. There are many cars that appeal to me, but they are either out of my price range, or don't come with the options I want. so picky am I.
