"2 years and 50K, no major issues. Handles well, accelerates well, quiet-we've driven the TL and while the TL's acceleration is better, but the TSX matches the TL otherwise. 30 MPG by our calculations, mainly highway Yes, it's the Honda Accord in Europe, but high end Accord's are at least as expensive, and the TSX's styling is better."

"I have a 2005 TSX and it is about as nice as an Accord. It idles very rough with less than 30k miles on it. The break rotors are already warped. The interior is showing wear. I had an Infiniti for years and put 130k miles on it. The Infinti was a better car at that mileage than the Acura is at 27k miles. If this car had a Honda badge I might expect some of the less than impressive things going on with my car, but it dosen't wear a Honda badge. It is an Acura. It is suposed to compete with Lexus, BMW, Infiniti, etc. Me or someone in my family has owned those three nameplates and all of them are FAR better quality than the Acura. The TSX is an average car at a lux car price."

"Perfect size for my use. Nice ride (slightly on the hard side), Good engine performance/MPG. The handling is really close to German cars (Audi A4/VW) that I've tried. You can slightly feel the power steering kickback while parking/sharp turn. It has a large trunk on it's class and a fold down back seat. But It does not have a large enough passageway between trunk and cabin. Engine power looks good on paper, but this car is on the heavier side. More power is needed to call this a sport sedan. There are alot of after market mod that can easily add power to this car As the previous reviewer was saying, don't buy this car without NAVIGATION system. It's the best I've seen so far. You CANNOT add the navigation system to the non-navigation TSX without rebuilding your dashboard. The sound system is ok. It's weird, but my VW Golf Monsoon system has a better staging and sound quality compared to TSX. Plus the Head unit do not play any MP3 disc. However, you can buy US-SPEC Ipod integration system and install them yourself (really easy DIY project). There is no loss on quality! and the steering control still work too."

"This is a sporty, comfortable car with great handling and a number of refinements. The six speed tranny shifts like silk, and the engine fairly hums. It is all too easy to wind 'er up to 80 mph on the highway, so lighten up on the foot. The TSX is not a vehicle for power users, however; it lags slightly behind other cars coming off the line, but after third gear it's all grace and music. Speaking of music: the stock system is excellent, six speakers, XM compatible, 6 CD changer in the dash. A graphic equalizer would help, but that's a small gripe. Rock on. Finally, don't buy a TSX without the navigation system, for like others who have, you will live to regret it. It comes with voice control, and if you miss your spouse harping at you on a long trip you can choose a male or female copilot. Buy this car if you are considering it. You will be happy you did."

"Love this car. Only thing missing is a more powerful engine. It has adequate power, but another 20 horses would make this car perfect in my opinion. Handles and drives like a dream. Smooth as silk! Best car we've ever owned!"
