Acura TSX? Should I buy?

Question

Acura TSX? Should I buy?

Answer 1

I think it is a great car, I test drove one and also the TL. I chose the latter as the TSX was a little slow for my taste.

Answer 2

The Acura TSX is aimed to be a less expensive version of the TL. The TSX has an I4, it is smaller and looks a bit different as well. However, it is a great car overall. Rear seat room might be tight but that's because its a small luxury sedan. Its base price is around $28,000 which puts it in the premium category. The competition includes Mitsubishi Eclipse, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Audi A3 and A4, Saab 9-3, BMW 3-Series, Subaru Legacy and the Volkswagen Jetta. Out of all of those I would personally keep the Acura in my top three. My mom has a 2004 Acura MDX and it is an excellent vehicle, so I would definitely recommend the TSX.

Answer 3

we have an 04 bought new (03), 30,000 mi on it...(6spd)

I hate it...but it's my husbands so I don't drive it much.

I have an RSX-S I like much better...suits me, I'm not the 4 dr type.

(someone on the list said they paid $38,000. I don't know who got taken here...but we didn't pay that much...and my husband had $3000. worth of extras put on and it STILL didn't cost even $30,000 yes I realize it's 07 now...but really the prices didn't go up....)

Answer 6

I have an aunt and uncle in Texas who have owned 4 Acuras in the past 10 years and have never had a problem with any of them other than standard scheduled maintenance. I think my aunt is looking at the TSX herself...

Answer 7

i have a 06 tsx 6 spd/w nav. I bought it new Nov. 06. It has over 7,000 miles on it. i am still trying to learn how to operate all the super many features on the car. It is a super great car. It should be for the price. I would recommend it but if possible get the 6 speed-more pep. No problems with it (knock-on-wood) My car is milano red with ebony int. no regrets so far-should have bought it sooner. I plan to keep this car for many years so I will keep it properly maintained. My brother and his family have owned many acuras , putting lots of miles on them, with no problems.

Answer 8

Answer 9

With the TSX you dont have much to worry about, there arent any 'hidden' problems with the car



Check out consumerguide.com for a full review (and reliablity/repair costs)

Also.. Check out fueleconomy.gov for some mileage information (you will find the TSX to be very good here too)



Its a great car for the price, you cant go wrong
