2009 Acura TSX - Q&A
How well does a TSX handle or accelerate?
I am looking around at many different used cars to consider and haven't made up my mind on a model yet. My parents have a civic which is fun to drive around the city, but I hate the feeling it has on freeways and higher speeds. I think I would prefer a German car since... Read More
- dude. A TSX well blow your mind away! I cant believe you would compare a gay' civic to a TSX!!!! OMG. haha well all i gotta say is if you compare all the 02-07 sedan cars.... the tsx is the best! its has better interior feeling and cloth then the sedan BWM in them... Read More
- Very well. It is a fun and quick car. The Accord handling is much softer, but aceleration is a bit quicker than the Acura's.
- It handles ok, but it isnt THAT fast. Compared to a V6 Accord, its slow. Going with the Acura TL is a good idea as well. I think that the TSX is a better looking car than the Honda, even though the performance is not as good.

Why should I also consider these?
Shoppers looking at the 2009 Acura TSX will probably be considering other front-wheel drive vehicles, and possibly all-wheel drive vehicles, but more expensive rear-wheel-drive sport sedans such as the BMW 3-Series and Lexus IS are likely above their budget and wants.
The Subaru Legacy GT has performance that rivals the TL, though its handling is a little more crisp and all-wheel drive makes it more all-weather-friendly.
The Legacy’s back seat is also tight.
However the Legacy isn’t as quiet and refined as the Acura.
The Nissan Maxima is another alternative; it’s not as feature-rich as the TSX, but it has a torquey V-6 engine that gives it scorching acceleration off the line.
The base, front-wheel-drive Audi A4 2.0T is also a worthy competitor, with similarly good fuel efficiency and edgier performance without a sacrifice in ride.
Versus any of these competitors, there’s another big selling point: Acura dealerships.
