Damn ricer employees.

They TRY to make it look badass, all with 200hp and 166lbs torque, lmao.

I was bored so I put "Acura TSX" in the search button on Community Webshots and what came up came to me as a surprise. It was a 2006 TSX and when i read the caption, it said 10 best winners and it seems as though the person who owns the pictures is from Car and Driver. I don't really know what it is so you can take a look for yourself but to me, it looks like the TSX is a 10 Best Winner AGAIN!!!

Wow the Miata made it. I was totally expecting the TSX to be replaced by the IS.

gocubsgo55 · 11-07-2005, 11:39 PM

^ same. my family owns one, but i dont think its THAT good. Maybe I'm too critical..

besides, there's the Accord and 3 Series. One would expect that having both of these would mean that their perfect balance (the TSX) would be needless. Hey, I'm not complaining.

OT, I think the Civic deserves to be here. I sat in a coupe, and the difference between the interior of that and my aunt's 2002 is beyond belief. It is pioneering the class in my opinion.

phile · 11-07-2005, 11:59 PM

^ The interior of the new Civic, from pics, doesn't impress me. It appears that Honda is still using hard plastics for the majority of the dash. My 99 Civic, by comparison, had a soft touch dash. I really think Honda started going backwards with the last Civic in terms of interior quality.

gocubsgo55 · 11-08-2005, 12:08 AM

^ i agree, some areas do feature cheap plastics. but the fit and finish is superb, the majority of the material is above average for the class, and the feature list is w/o a doubt, unmatchable. it's growing on me and should be a hit. a girl at my school got one in white, and it turned my head. then again, so did my TSX when people were not aware that Acura has such a car.

gocubsgo55 · 11-08-2005, 12:09 AM

oh, and I bet that if the end results stay true to there results, my.is and clublexus are going to go bash-berserk

slo007 · 11-08-2005, 12:11 AM

I saw the new IS today. A red one. It looks nice from the back. The front seems exactly like the old one. Nothing special. At least not on my rear view mirror.

You guys realize this is the TSX's 3rd staright year on the 10 Best list don't you?

And the previous 2 years also had the Accord and 3 series.

The IS may be good but its nowhere near the value the TSX is. That factors heaviliy into C&D's decesion.

Sorry, no TL again and the RL was bumped off

When was the last time a Lexus was on this list? This year isn't any different from previous years, no Lexus'

**CGTSX2004** · 11-08-2005, 9:55 AM

Another 10Best win for the TSX!

NBP_TSXY · 11-08-2005, 10:42 AM

Are we really surprised the TSX is on the list again???

TSX

!

330R · 11-08-2005, 12:59 PM

It looks like only 8 of the 10 best are shown in the gallery.

I wonder what the other two are.

Sclass88 · 11-08-2005, 5:11 PM

It says in the caption... Mazda RX8 and the Porsche Boxter.

with the new IS coming out, I their fans were betting on it being a 3 Series and TSX beater. Obviously not, as both have made it, again..

The previous gen Lexus GS made it when it first debuted.

Mokos23 · 11-09-2005, 8:03 PM

That TSX A spec is all show and no go. Kinda sad

and I'm a current TSX owner.

It's rumored to be powered by the same drivetrain as in the current RDX.

biker · 09-16-2006, 1:27 PM

Isn't that the same Sport concept that made the car show rounds already? The RDX drivetrain seems like a no brainer.

heyitsme · 09-16-2006, 9:27 PM

Think the TSX is the perfect Acura, it just needs to compete with the new 328 power wise/0-60.

swift22 · 09-16-2006, 11:19 PM

all i know is that that jap magazine once spied the new supra at a track....except it was an SC430....so it has to be taken with a grain of salt. Even though it is pretty good looking

TheAcAvenger · 09-17-2006, 5:19 PM

If they release the TSX with SH-AWD and the RDX powerplant?? I will actually reconsider my desire for the 335 coupe. Why? I dont want to be a bmw owner. And i'll got a lot more tuner support with the TSX. Finally? An Acura car with turbo! I'm going to have a heartattack. I'm going to heartattack!

Mizouse · 09-17-2006, 7:27 PM

looks pretty nice, the grill looks like its from the current TL and the headlights similar to the MDXs

I dont think that's technically possible.

Mokos23 · 09-17-2006, 8:04 PM

The next gen TSX discussion has been beaten to death on the TSX board and at vtec.

Everyone hopes that the next gen TSX will have SH-AWD, a 4 cyl turbo, and possibly between 240-250hp.

phile · 09-17-2006, 8:26 PM

^ I know, but after reading about the turbo lag on the RDX, I'm not sure I'd like to see it in the TSX. The 4-cylinder in the TSX can still benefit from Honda's version of direct injection (see this thread), and maybe a 6-speed tranny would make it more responsive. I know a lot of people complain about the TSX being slow, but I think it's very good considering its only a 4-cylinder car with a heavy weight.

invincible569 · 09-18-2006, 8:44 PM

After seeing what the NSX looks like in that magazine.. I dont know if I could believe this.

But the same magazine got the 07 CR-V correctly. They posted a CR-V CGI pic back in March which looked 95% identical to the official press photos.

I hope this isn't just a lame photoshop but an actual new picture of the next iteration of last years's Sport 4 concept (above)...

Notice that like for the previous TL and RDX concepts, now the grille is a traditional Honda grille, the rear-view mirrors are traditional and not cameras, and the headlights are projectors and not LED.

I like where it's going, I just hope they change the tail a little bit and make it more like the MDX/RDX, the tail lights look kind of funny on this one...

deandorsey · 09-21-2006, 1:14 PM

i cant wait for this car to come out... this will probably be my next car, as i'm sure w/ acuras current pricing, the 4gen TL will be priced out of my range...

oh, and it better have LED tails

not having that setup in the RDX and RL sucks... it is one of the best features of the Navi.... the current TSX screen is huge and right in reach... they should just update it's software/hardware...

so they got one right. i highly doubt any of the chops at TOV from that magazine are going to be correct.

Hey, you never know. This one may turn out to be the next TSX. IMO it doesn't look bad at all.
