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.

Best Sports Sedan for the Price - 2006 Acura TSX
By Marcello - June 7 - 10:01 pmIts mother is a Honda Accord (European size), its father Id swear was a BMW 3-series (last model). This car gives you the best of Japan along with the handling of Germany. You cant beat it for the price. My favorite car out of the ten Ive owned including my BMW 3 series, Infiniti Q45 and Nissan Maxima. I cant wait to see what they do with the next generation. This is my second Acura and Im sold on the brand.

Greatest Machine on Earth - 2006 Acura TSX
By rockthetsx - May 31 - 7:51 pm7 months into my ownership and I still wake up each and every morning with a smile on my face. I have a 35-mile commute to work and this car has been reliably fun to drive. Under the hood, you will find an engine that has a lot of potential and yearns to purr. Whenever I step out of my car, I always have this look of reluctance. If you get that look on your face after test-driving the tsx, then youll know exactly what I mean. If you dont and decide not to purchase a tsx, then THANK YOU! Unlike the TL, TSX is a rare breed in my code and Id prefer the status quo remains. >)

A very nice car - 2006 Acura TSX
By EmanV - May 9 - 5:03 pmI was in the market for a new car, my wonderful honda prelude aproaching 300,000 miles. I decided on the TSX after driving BMW, Audi, Lexus. The combination of Price, features, economy and RELIABILTY were unbeatable. The 4 cylinder is strong enough to get the job done. The navigation seems extravagant until you need it. The more I drive it , the more I like it.

Acura TSX 2006 - 2006 Acura TSX
By Cynthia Magill - May 9 - 3:50 pmI went from driving the 2000 TL Acura and I love this car. I actually bought the 2005 Acura TSX first and my husband loved it so much he suggested I buy the 2006 and give him the 2005. We both love the Navigation system. The blueTooth in the 06 is exceptional. We love this car. We also love the dealership Inskip in RI and we live in NH.

Cant get any better for the money - 2006 Acura TSX
By Matt - April 29 - 1:16 amVery good car for $27k; loads of standards and an engine that loves to rev up! Granted BMWs are awesome cars...I wont deny that, I love them! But I will guarantee that you cant find a fully loaded brand new BMW 3 series for about $28k; I "built" my own 3 Series with the features available in the TSX...it came close to $33k.

This car is incredible for the price! - 2006 Acura TSX
By Megan - April 9 - 1:46 pmThis is my third Acura. The car just feels solid and has great safety features. Its fun to drive, feels just like what you would want out of a sports car mixed perfectly with a luxury ride. I had the RSX type S before this, and I lost absolutely no engine power, and the braking system is amazing, the car really stops on a dime. I can say nothing bad about this car. The electronics are great, especially the information screen in the dash board. It tells you exactly what you need to know! I always installed aftermarket stereos in my car, and felt no need to do that in this car! Great comfort and fun!

06 TSX a Drivers Car - 2006 Acura TSX
By TSXTODD - April 1 - 2:35 pmThis is a stylish, fun to drive sports sedan. Sure you can get the excellent TL, but if you dont need the size, this car makes a lot of sense. The TL is based on the American built Accord. The TSX is a J built sedan made for the Autobahn. I recently packed it with 4 adults and all their luggage for a weekend. There was plenty of room and plenty of power. I average 28 MPG. In my book the 6 speed manual transmission is a must. The revy 4cyl loves to go to redline. This is a true drivers car.

A very good car - 2006 Acura TSX
By STEVE - March 7 - 5:24 amI got this car last year for my graduation present, and I must say that I love my car. I used to drive a 2003 Acura TL and switching to this was "bittersweet." Going from 3.2L to a 2.4L was a bit of a bummer. I noticed this especially on the interstate. The TSX had a much more fun sport shift mode (hearing the engine switch gears). But the seats in the 03 TL were much more softer. This car is fun fun fun to drive in the city. The dash has a very simple design with clean contour lines. I love how the backseats fold down for me to put my band equipment. But I do not love how it is difficult to get change out of the change cubby when the car is parked because the shifter is in the way.

The complete package and a great value - 2006 Acura TSX
By cat_trammell - February 21 - 10:37 pmFound a new 2006 model in February and glad I did. My last three cars have been: 2005 Saab 9-3, 2003 MINI Cooper and 1997 Audi A4. Overall, the TSX outclasses them all. Handling is on par with the A4, comfort is comparable to the 9-3, and its as fun to drive as the MINI. All this and Acuras reputation for quality and reliability, and a price thousands less than its European and Japanese competitors with every feature standard. Anyone looking for a sports sedan needs to seriously consider the TSX.
