  Sold my 2007 TL for the TSX - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Bob Jamesson - May 24 - 8:16 pm

  I had a 2007 Acura TL with only 11,000 miles on it. I sold it and am glad I bought the 2009 TSX. Its quieter, handles better and the gas mileage is much improved : I went from averaging 20mpg to 28mpg. Thats an approximate savings of almost $600 annually based on the 10,000 miles I drive. The TSXs looks are complimented by people that see the vehicle. Its an all around enjoyable car to drive and as much as I liked my TL, I like my TSX better.

  My Dream Car - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Buckeyegirl - May 17 - 7:23 pm

  I finally got my dream car. It rides so smooth for me. The only thing I didnt care for was the front grille, I like the front of the 2008 better, but Im getting used to it I never forget to fasten my seatbelt it wont let me haha.

  Great Car for Right Person - 2009 Acura TSX
  By cyberbro - May 17 - 3:20 am

  This is a great car with very good gas mileage. The handling is very good (think front wheel drive Bimmer). This is not a fast car but can still be fun. Steering: everyone seems to knock it, If you only drive German cars you might be disappointed but for an Asian car it is on par and does not bother me. Maybe Acura will do a software update and make it a bit more firm and on center.

  Good balance of luxury and price - 2009 Acura TSX
  By RBH - April 27 - 9:53 pm

  Lots of professional reviews say it is underpowered, but coming from a Volvo 850, the TSX is a bit more spirited than that car, it has enough power for me. Engine is smoother than I thought a I4 would be.

  Great Car - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Bay Area Guy - February 15 - 3:53 pm

  Just bought a 2009 TSX with Technology package and so far am very happy with it. Handles great, automatic transmission is very smooth, has every conceivable bell and whistle, navigation system is great, and sound system is superb. Gas mileage has been very good and engine is pleasantly peppy for a 4 cylinder car. The taut sports-like suspension was my only concern during the test driving, but I have come to appreciate the feel for the road it communicates. Overall am very happy with the car so far, and especially love the stellar sounds system with iPod integrated out of sight in the center console.

  Modern, Stylish, Feature-Rich - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Dost77 - January 25 - 4:33 pm

  I moved up to the 2009 TSX from a 2006 TSX. The Grigio dark copper/graphite color is strikingly elegant. Although exterior styling resembles the circa 2006 models, this is a total redesign inside and out. Added length and width make this car appear as large as a pre-2009 TL. Inside, this benefits rear seat passengers, who now enjoy a lot more legroom. Other interior differences are the premium sound, which - on the non-tech - is FAR superior to the rather dismal offering in my 2006 TSX, and includes a sub woofer for deep and thumping bass.

  I Love This Car! - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Face - December 23 - 6:56 pm

  If you look outside of Edmunds there are so many negative reviews on this car, but honestly I have no idea what these people are talking about. You get so much technology and bells in whistles for the price compared to VW, Audi, BMW or even Lexus. I looked at them all and even though all those cars were good in their own right I felt the Acura was the one to get. I am 62, 250 and find the seats very comfortable and the car a pleasure to drive. This car has the perfect blend of great gas mileage without having the usual sacrifice of an under powered engine.

  Cynic to believer in 300 miles - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Nate - December 13 - 8:50 pm

  Bought myself a TSX for my birthday, upgrading from a 98 VW that had lost its lust for life (as well as my love of driving), and I am astounded at how much I love to drive this car, and how others react to it. Its powerful, responsive, comfortable, efficient and for the price to what you get, its second to none. I am still getting used to parking it in a small parking lot, but the majority of that is new car jitters. Everything thats important is top-notch, some of the small things, I would have changed. Others have mentioned the screen glare, bluetooth mic is ho-hum and far away, elbow rests take some effort, lower grille is weak plastic and deforms in weeks, and radio "forgets" settings.

  Great Car- - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Margie - December 1 - 9:00 am

  I just returned my 05 Jeep Liberty and leased the 09 TSX about 2 days ago. So far I love it. Nice change from the SUV. Luxury without putting you in the poor house.

  Great Ride! - 2009 Acura TSX
  By Rybes - November 3 - 10:30 pm

  New & improved! Quite an upgrade from my 06 TSX and I thought that car was nice. This car is hot! Better lease than Accord EX. Civic Si on wish list but doesnt compare! Smooth highway ride with less wind noise. Better turning radius, great steering. Decent MPG, comfy seats like Volvo. Smooth shifting 6M. Grigio Metallic great alternative to silver/gray. Only gripe is the interior trim looks cheap as do the door handles. Acura has made a believer out of me. Loyal customer for life!
