Yup we have both and we both like both of them. However, Jim likes a slightly (and I mean slightly) smaller and lighter car - hence the TSX for him. I like something a little larger with more gadgets and a bigger engine - hence the TL for me. I do wish the TL was rear wheel drive - it's got a bit of torque steer but once you get use to it it's no big deal. The TSX 6 speed (Jim's) is a much nicer shifting manual than we test drove on the TL. I tried both because I can drive both and found the manual in the TL just weird. I'll have you know that I didn't stall it on the test drive - but Jim did - and he drives a manual every day!

If you're thinking of getting an automatic go with the TL. The auto in the TSX just lacks power - it's a lot less responsive than the manual. They're both great cars it's just trying to figure out which one suits your needs the best.

Yes - still talking about cars.

Jim's going to be putting the A-spec suspension on his TSX sometime this spring. If you're comparing stock-to-stock the TL is faster. Modified TSX.

The RL has also had some "issues" per the boards for Acura and it's quite a price jump. Closer to the $50k range.


If your looking for some great information from a forum check out acurazine - they really pass along quite a bit of useful information about all of the acura line up. They possess the same wealth of knowledge as you guys do but about acura - mods and all. Oh and don't be disappointed with the fact that their threads aren't whore'd quite as much and not all of them turn into talk about cookies!
