Nothing so far.

Great Car For The Money. Handles Like A Go-cart And Gets Almost 30mpg. — Fully loaded and very tightly built. Rev-happy 2.4L engine really scoots the car along above 5000rpm. Honda reliability with the luxury of a TL. Glacier blue metallic is a beautiful color. Wouldn't own a new TSX because the body style is hideous.

Great shifting, very reliable

Cons

Not a lot of personality, not the most fun to drive

Tsx — Good car, doesn't have lots of personality, however. The shifting and performance are OK, had to learn to rev to get performance, especially coming from a Saab with more low-RPM torque. Fit and finish are unsurprisingly good, it is a Honda after all. Interested to see new version. Good gas mileage!

Great More Affordable Luxury Car. — I loved at the price I got it for used during the recession and how few problems I had with the car compared to other friends i know with their luxury cars. I am very happy with the purchase and will probably get another TSX in the future.

Great Luxury Car — Smooth ride on the road, fast with its v-tech. this car makes a statement on the road. I personally am selling the car only because my wife is pregnant and i need more room for baby car seat and stroller. otherwise i would keep this car forever.

Pros

The fact that it is a luxury Honda, easy maintenance & very customizable

Cons

It can not make a u-turn for the life if it. It needs so much space to turn around, not excellent i tight corners.

Slightly Modified Txs — Over all the car has been slightly modified, so the power is slightly better then a stock version, but because the car is lowered almost 2 inches, the ride is not too smooth. The look of the car is so clean & simple. I would say that most people that drive my car agree that it is relatively fun to drive.

It's Better Than My Celica. — Love the look navigation system. Hate the actual navigation system. AMAZED with the hands-free cell phone link. Heated seats are a plus. Maintenance is a biotch. Driving is nice . The tires the care deserves are expensive , but worth it. It's great to own, gas mileage is good.

Good Use For Safety Driver — not a racing care so nothing excited, but it is very nice and reasonable price, very comfortable to sit in there, maintenance is not as expensive as Europe car, but still is a bit high. Gas is not that bad.

Acura — TSX is a great car and the only reason I own it is because toyota does not have a somewhat sporty 6-speed car. The premium gas does not help either. Other than that this car is amazing and I'll have it for awhile.

First Car Run Down — Great car to learn how to drive. Convenient features, beautiful all round. Ipod integration, power everything. All of which were in hands, not arms, reach. Being able to manually change the gears(I had an automatic) made for some nice exhaust notes and had a tight feel though out every aspect of the steering.The more spirited I drove though, the more I wanted. This car's full potential would only be seen on a track. While I shouldn't be scrutinizing a non-performance car on its performance, its what interested me while I drove. I don't recommend this car because I'm biased and feel there are much better daily drivers out there in the price range. :D

A Tsx To Remember — I loved this car, it was great, the performance was spoiling and the luxury features were awesome- until they started to fail one after the other. Don't know if I received a lemon, but it was the least reliable car I owned. Build quiality was better than average except the hood seems to not line up correctly. Definatley miss...
