  Great mix for the money - 2009 Acura TSX
  By KYPilot - July 7 - 9:30 am

  Took a 3500 mile trip through Colorado, Wyoming, and South Dakota in May. Averaged 30 mpg. Fun car to drive through the mountains. Smoothest six speed and clutch I have ever driven. Steering takes a little time to get used to. Would have liked a few more horses in the mountains, but if you keep the rpm up above 3500 it does well. The DVD audio is awesome. The trip computer is one to two MPGs optimistic. No auto is perfect but the TSX is a good mix and for the money is hard to beat.

  One year later... not as impressed - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Gritty - July 5 - 9:38 pm

  Loved the car when first purchased. Like the car now. Voice rec., nav, bluetooth not perfected, not close. Very irritating when not functioning properly. Mechanically sound. Thinnest layer of paint under trunk lid, three areas of rust already. Lots of rattles (poor quality control), dealership cant correct to this point yet. Hopefully fixed after this week. ELS stereo best Ive heard (much better than G35 bose, etc...). However, other brands will get much closer look when next new car purchase comes around...

  Great Choice! Would do it again - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Dude - July 1 - 12:46 pm

  I have had my TSX now about 3 months. I love just about everything on the car - the paddle shifters, the stereo system (try real DVD-As), the ipod usb jack, the backup camera, etc. But most especially the engine - what a sweet little V-4 - I have been getting 27.4 MPG in mixed driving. When I do all highway, I am consistently in the low 30s mpg. Agree the steering feels a little remote, but still drives wonderfully. I looked at BMW 3s and Aud A4s, but the cost was nowhere close (yes, may be better but not $10k better). Who needs a 6 cyl today?

  Awesome car! - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Will - June 29 - 3:24 pm

  I kept going back & forth b/t the TSX and Honda Accord. Glad I went w/ the TSX. Very good pick up for a 4 cyl car (compared to 4 cyl Accord) & great gas mileage. If youre in the market, recommend taking it for a test drive. Also drove an older model RL....such a nice car if you have $. This is my 2nd Acura and Ive had a great experience w/ both. HIGHLY recommend!

  Good car - 2009 Acura TSX
  By person - June 28 - 3:12 am

  I like the car and you can see whats good about it reading the other reviews. But, I did find a number of problems with my TSX. 1. The sunroof seems to make noises at times. 2. The glove compartment makes rattling noises. 3. The audio display (where the navigation should be for TSXs with the tech package) has a glare at certain times of the day. Sometimes, its to the point you cannot read whats on the display. I have heard that you can get a matte material to place beneath the display to rid of the glare. 4. The front two speakers crackle at certain frequencies. It is, overall, a good vehicle and I am happy that I have purchased it, but there are some problems that should be rectified.

  Will Never Leave Acura Again - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Ken - June 27 - 10:25 pm

  Had an 06 TSX and traded it for a pre-owned 06 Mercedes E350. Immediately started having problems with the Benz. Traded back to an 09 TSX w/Tech and have never been happier. Yes, suspension is a little rough but I love the feel of the road and the fun it is to drive. Ill never leave Acura again.

  This car is awsome! - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Martin, IL - June 20 - 2:47 pm

  I love my TSX! Since I got it back in February I put 9K miles on it and I average 27.3 MPG. I also clocked it at 7.1 0-60 and 15.2 1/4 mile. Edmunds times are way off to everybody elses for some reason (car&driver, road and track, motor trend etc) by about 1 full sec. for 0-60 an 1/4 mile! I love the handling .084 and the road feel. You cant beat that value for the money! Try to get a A4 or 3 series for $30K! Thats not going to happen! If youre looking for something fun, reliable, with the best resale value in its class - you found it! Im very happy with my car.

  Best deal - 2009 Acura TSX
  By pete in ny - June 18 - 8:44 am

  This is my second Acura. The first was a 2.3CL which had 180,00 when I sold it. This car is even better. Not only does it have the same look as the much more expensive vehicles but it is economical. I get almost 34 mpg on the highway. A great, fun car.

  Acura TSX - Muy Bueno.... - 2009 Acura TSX
  By iggster - June 10 - 9:09 pm

  This car offers a great balance between luxury, technology, and practicality. Inside and out it shows Acuras attention to luxury details. It comes with more technology than many other more expensive brands. And this machine gives you a higher then average fuel economy for cars of this size, weight and costs.

  TSX Delivers - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Mike - June 8 - 5:55 pm

  I have only had our TSX for a short time, but can honestly say that this car represents one of the best bargains available. From the styling to responsiveness, the TSX delivers. Honestly, I hadnt even looked at the TSX until two weeks before we bought the car. The first look left me very impressed. Ive had several people comment on how nice the car looks both inside and out (There are not a whole lot of new cars sold these days, so the lack of a license plate draws attention as does the car). On top of appearance, Acuras top-quality brand reputation made this purchase a no-brainer. Lexus IS was too small. VW CC was nice, but the Acura was better in our opinion.
