    I love my Acura TSX. It handles the corners great and comfort is the tops! This is my second Acura and I am sold and I will never go to another car make. Nothing but fun in this car.

  • Must be a lemon - 2004 Acura TSX

    I was very taken by the price/value of this car. However I have had many problems. Brakes, AC, Stereo and console lights to name a few. The car was not designed to be servived affordably. Total cost of ownership has been comparable to more expensive cars I passed up that include better warranties. Should have bought a BMW.

  • Great car, highly recommended - 2004 Acura TSX
    By -

    Our 2004 TSX is fun to drive. 5sp auto makes a huge diffence on power delivery over our older accord. Would highly recommend. We have black (looks great...hard to keep clean), will probably trade in for a 06 white TSX. I read some complaints of poor traction in rain, we never had any problems. The HIDs are super! Car handles like a roller coaster.

    I COULD NOT BE MORE PLEASED. WHAT A GREAT CAR! I TRADED IN MY 2003 ACCORD EX FOR THE TSX. IT HANDELS MUCH BETTER THAN THE ACCORD. GREAT BUILD QUALITY, FUN TO DRIVE, GOOD GAS MPG. I WOULD NOT CHANGE A THING. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CAR.

  • Reality Check - 2004 Acura TSX
    By -

    I am a true owner of the TSX, not one who just test drove the car. I dont sell cars so no bias involved. I own several vehicles, all 2004 models including an MDX, and an ES300. The TSX is my commuter car, therefore no NAVI reqd. If you could just drive the car not knowing its cost. Just compare its driveability, comfort and features. This is a stunning car to drive that mixes an excellent dose of comfort, power, and manuverability in a very affordable package. For shear driving enjoyment the TSX is my favorite.

  • I like it but... - 2004 Acura TSX
    By -

    I like driving this car. Handling is very good. The 4 cylinder engine is fairly powerful. The interior is what I really love. But, I have a kid now. And I found it very hard to carry my baby in this car. I never worried about back seat space and its access. But I notice more and more. It is really a 2 door car than a 4 door. If you are single and looking for a fun car, this is it. But if you are looking for a 4 door sedan, this is not the car you want to consider. My friends have Audi A4 and BMW 3 series. I think they are better as family car, even though they are similar size cars.

    This is my fourth Acura - and the best of the lot. Quick, responsive, fun to drive and economical to boot. Every feature I wanted came as standard equipment and absolutely no buying hassle from the dealer. A really good ownership experience.

  • Good, reliable, and economic - 2004 Acura TSX
    By -

    Ive had not even the slightest problem with the car over the 15,000 miles that Ive driven it. Perhaps the most is how much the car does with the 2.2 liter 4-cylinder engine you have to goose up the revs a bit to get the car to shoot up an on-ramp, but the engine and automatic transmission respond smoothly and seamlessly. I like the minimalist style (Im an early baby-boomer and dont need the boy-racer image, though I enjoy performance). I also enjoy the gas economy on a mixed highway-street commute, I get perhaps 27-28 MPG and and thus fill the tank only about every 320 miles. The handling is reliable but a bit light it doesnt give much road feel or excitement.
