We bought a 2009 TSX because it handled great on the road and it was a more dressed up version of the Honda Accord we were considering along with the Toyota Camry. We loved the fact it had a sporty look to it, came with leather interior, and had asun roof. Plus, it had dual climate control, which was a dream come true for my often-cold wife and me. The price was solid and overall and we thought we had landed the perfect car for us to enjoy either for work or play on the weekends. The car was perfect for zipping off on the weekend and we enjoyed driving it unless we were stuck in traffic on major highways. The gas mileage has been very good. Overall, the car has been inexpensive to maintain, but it does require more frequent washes since it is white. The paint job seems to hold up well despite driving it in the northeast and for a car with lots of fancy equipment, we have - knock on wood - been pretty good with wear and tear. The best part about the car is how stylish it looks without the price that comes with a BMW or Lexus.

I would say that the best thing about the car in general is that you get all of the perks of a BMW and the other entry level luxury cars but at a cheaper price. I was able to get standard front seat heating, sun roof all standard. Where as the other ones would cost you a lot more for those. Basically the engine and the handling is the same. Pro: It has a Honda engine, this is really what sold me. Knowing that what's on the inside is a very reliable brand helps me sleep better at night and feel comfortable taking those longs drive in the middle of nowhere. Pro: it handles well and with the toggle switches you can adjust how you drive the car. I don't know how to drive a stick but with the toggles its like getting the perks of driving a stick shift but with the ease of an automatic. Con: its only a 4 cylinder, its not a big deal but you can definitely notice it when you have other people in the car. If I have four big sized friends in the car and I try to accelerate quickly the car just chugs along. But if you are the only one in the car it accelerates great. Pro: it gets good gas mileage. Its a Honda engine so you know it gets good mileage. And you have something on your dash that helps you keep track of your mileage rate.
