Overview & Reviews
The Acura TSX receives minor engine, feature and styling changes for 2006. The car's 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine has been modified to produce a bit more power; it now makes 205 horsepower and 164 lb-ft of torque. Inside, there is an upgraded optional navigation system that's faster, has more points of interest and includes access to a Zagat restaurant guide. A hands-free cell phone interface and a digital audio media auxiliary jack are also new. Exterior enhancements for the 2006 Acura TSX include redesigned front and rear fascias, new side sills, foglamps and new alloy wheels.
- An engine that loves to rev and sounds good doing it, sharp handling, slick six-speed manual transmission, upscale interior look and feel, long standard equipment list, top-of-the-line navigation system.
- Not much power until the engine gets revved up.

A great ride with all the goodies - 2006 Acura TSX
By sportscarlover - June 12 - 6:03 amI bought my car in the last week of December. I started my search from BMW 3 Series, but realized it was out of my price range.One day I test drove TSX and loved it immediately. The car has very beautiful, rich interior - looks very sporty. My car came fully loaded with features like heather leather seats, XM radio, bluetooth etc. Engine could use some more power but in sport-shift mode (auto tranny), its fast enough. TSX has confident handling. Suspension and steering provide sharp cornering and good road-feel. I cant think of any other car that gives more bling for your buck.

Love my TSX!! - 2006 Acura TSX
By Alison311 - April 20 - 12:56 pmThis car is so much fun to drive, I just love it. I had an RSX for three yrs. prior to this car and all I can say is you cant beat an Acura. The Navi is lots of fun (it is impossible to get lost!) the audio system "bumps" and I love the in-dash changer! The dash is beautifully illuminated at night..all controls are right at your fingertips. I was always afraid a 4- door would make me old or at least feel old, but not this car. This car is sporty and super cool too! The value for the money is beyond amazing! This car does everything but drive itself, and thank goodness for that, cuz driving it is sooo much fun!

Great car for the money - 2006 Acura TSX
By Dave - April 9 - 9:13 amI bought this car in April 06, and really cannot complain about its performance and reliability. My previous car was a 2001 Volvo S40 with all the bells and whistles, however, it completely died at 18K miles. I have test driven many other vehicles in its class and the TSX is by far the best out there. It looks sharp with the ground effects kit which I have by the way and the car is loaded. When you add up these features with other cars, you are looking at at least $40K when all done and said (with BMW, MB, Lexus, etc). Maybe these other cars may have a more powerful engine, but I probably can smoke em on a long haul! The TSX also has a good resale value... no plans on selling or trading up!

Everything I wanted in good commute car - 2006 Acura TSX
By DDover - April 6 - 7:20 pmThis car wont rival the likes of a BMW or Mercedes - but it also doesnt come with the price tag. The car is reliable and fun to drive. My only complaint - it lacks the zip to pass quickly on a narrow 2 lane roads when 18-wheelers are in the distance. My wife may have screamed once or twice. But, what do you expect from 4-cylinders? Other than that one complaint - no problems in day to day city driving. The back seat isnt quite as roomy with a now 510" sons long legs.

Best deal for the money! - 2006 Acura TSX
By MicksTSX - March 2 - 9:43 amThe TSX has so much to offer. Awesome HID headlights heated, power-adjustable driver and passenger sport seats with drivers memory leather upholstery an eight-speaker, 360-watt audio system with XM satellite radio and an in-dash CD changer dual-zone automatic climate control and a sunroof ALL standard! Interior is laid out nicely lots of safety features including stability control and side curtain airbags 205 hp engine that is fairly quiet but gets up and goes when needed decent gas mileage (I average 25 mostly city driving) easy to park and handles well Honda reliability. Exterior styling is a bit bland but its nice not to see another TSX often like the Accords :)

The 06 TSX: You Wont Be Disappointed - 2006 Acura TSX
By Jesse - February 6 - 7:33 pmJust a tremendous car. I just got home with it tonight after putting on the first 120 miles or so (just driving around), so I may be a bit in that "I love my new car" mode. But, thats the way it should be. The drive is smooth, quiet, and rips around the side streets and highways with great handling. The interior and gadgets are laid out perfectly right in front of you, and it feels as though youre in the cockpit of an airplane. Just superb in every respect.

Good Times! - 2006 Acura TSX
By Kingleo - January 20 - 11:03 pmThis vehicle is beautiful. I waited for the 2006 model to be released and am very glad I did so. The vehicle drives like a dream and has the comfort and technology one would expect of a vehicle costing thousands more. Even though the vehicle "only" has a 4-banger, it is surprisingly quick off the line (Acura has the vehicles total weight in mind, not just the engine.) The interior is well designed and all the fit and finish is immaculate. I have been driving the vehicle for a few days now and find new and fun features that make the daily commute just as enjoyable as the back road joyride. I highly recommend this vehicle!!

Fun to Drive - 2006 Acura TSX
By MikeD - January 11 - 7:30 pmJust got the TSX 6sp and enjoy the drive after having a 95 Acura Integra. Great performance, handling and looks. Moderate gas mileage, however, as I expected above 30mpg, and seem to only get about 27mpg on highway. Just noticed significant squeaking in drivers seat, and saw another review on problem with seat rail. Anyone else experiencing problems with seats squeaking? Great car, great performance, and got a great price at my Acura dealership- below invoice. Buy this car, but look at seat noices as you test drive.
