Review (Written by: TallGuy)
I’m a tall driver (6’6″) and finally found a “fit” in the new TL. What an upgrade from my ’99 Chevy Malibu! Averaging about 24 MPG and love the performance. Beautiful interior with great features – Voice-activated blue tooth, XM, Universal link garage opener, and this is all in the base model. Exterior is beautiful, even getting used to the Bucky beaver front-end. Overall, design is great.
Favorite Features
Voice-activated blue tooth, steering wheel controls, pre-set seat and mirror settings, great MPG, exterior is stunning.
Suggested Improvements
Make push-button start and key-fob standard for all models. The stiletto style key for base is poor. Split-fold rear seats would be nice.
2009 Acura TSX
A TSX is not an A4 fighter. If anything it would be the TL. The TSX fits in a no-mans-land market. It’s fighting against it’s own cousin the Honda Accord except with a heavier price tag.
The TSX is underpowered and over priced. The new Accord, more powerful, bold looks, and competitive pricing is surely the better choice if these two were the considered options.
The 2000 Honda Accord I found to be very quiet on the road. I also found it to be very comfortable. With the optional leather seats on the 4-banger version and standard leather for the EX-V6(Up here in Canada) why pay the extra premium for a TSX?
Although the A4 may have a 2.0 engine it’s in a completely different class of vehicle. Better engineered. The new A4 looks great with the A5 traits. The TSX wishes it was the TL. — Agent63
