"I purchased the TSX used, I drive over 1000 miles a week a I did not want to wear out a new car. Anyway, the tsx has been averaging around 37 mpg on the highway, it is definitely nicely equipped and handles well. My only gripe about a Honda/Acura product is the lack of torque, somewhat lethargic acceleration, but to be fair, I have owned some fairly powerful performance cars. Overall, a great buy."

"The Acura 2004 TSX was the very first NEW car I ever owned. I had a company car for years & always wanted an Acura. I went to the dealer with the intentions to buy the TL but fell in love with the TSX! I've have now owned it for 7 years.....complete with navigations system and rear spoiler....it's a HOT car! I have 94,000 miles on it and it runs like it's brand new! I love, love, love this car! Thank you Acura for one of the best cars on the road! I've always felt safe, secure & love the ride!!!"

"Purchased this Acura seven months ago, it had 78,000 miles on it then. I've added 6,000 and the only real problem is that the rotors had to be replaced, this may come up more than normal with this year of the TSX. Otherwise it is fun to drive, the turbo 4 provides a lot of punch and the car corners well with good tires. And it's solid throughout. It does take premium gas, which should be considered if you drive a lot of miles. But it's the best little car I've owned, I'd buy a newer one if this one were totaled."

"This is my second new vehicle ever. The first was Mitsubishi that was HUGE mistake. Later I had a 1988 Saab 900 I bought with 90K on it for $6000 in 1991 and drove it 177,000 MORE miles before I sold it to a guy who drove it for another 100,000; I tell you this because this Acura is every bit as durable and requires even less maintenance. I bought my 04 new and have driven it 170,000 miles with nothing more than brakes and 4 sets of tires and a 110K mile tuneup. Car has 200 HP, 30 MPG, and lots of bells and whistles while costing you nothing but insurance and gas."

"Easy, just plain easy. Let me put it like this. Ive owned this car for a year, and the only thing I have had to put into my TSX is wiper blades. This is my second car following my 2005 Mustang. You say, sell an 05 to buy an 04? Precisely. The TSX's advanced styling and comfort trumps the almost 'barbaric' design of the Mustang. The interior comfort and exterior styling of my TSX is phenomenal. My car was purchased with 107k miles and now has approximately 110k miles. Engine runs strong and clutch grabs great. Going from a sporty American muscle car to classy foreign car, I do NOT consider this a step down in performance. The 200 HP i-VTEC moves along quite well. You will not go wrong with this car. If you are looking for a sporty and classy yet economical car, the Acura TSX is the way to go. Pros: -Great visibility -Good in wet weather -Quick and sporty -Extremely comfortable -Excellent MPG -Reliable and easy to drive Cons: -Not the cheapest vehicle to buy parts for -Light car, so not outstanding in snow"

"TSX has quite a pep for a 4-cylinder engine. The car is designed as a sedan, and sits driver & passengers higher than other sports sedans such as a BMW 320. 17" wheels, 205 hp, NAV system (optional) and a sun/moon roof. Oh yeah, Honda reliability! We have had ours around 5-years and other and maintaining the vehicle, nothing unforeseen. Although it handles well, its turning radius is awful. You would need a football field to drive in a circle! Aside from that, you get an adequately responsive car, that looks sporty. If you need more room and horsepower, try out the Acura TL. Either way, you will have a decent vehicle resale when you're ready. 200K miles is certainly within reach and we're halfway there! Best to all !"
