2009 Tsx — I love the new generation tsx mostly because it's a 4 cylinder & still has the size & luxuries of the TL. super smooth ride, looks amazing & comes with all the bells & whistles at no extra cost. It's also great on gas which is a must in this economy!

Pros

For the price, maintenance and comfort of the car I felt that I stood toe-to-toe with any mid-size luxury sedan. Great car for young professionals.

Cons

My only con would be the 2009 GPS interface and the sound quality of the speakers. The new TSX seems to have improved in both those areas.

Great Car For Everyday Use — I have had this car for a year and not had one problem with it. It has been thoroughly reliable and has served me well. If I did not move to a city, I would have had this car for the long term.

09 Tsx — Bluetooth phone connection is amazing Leather seats have great support Powerful for a 4 cylinder engine Oil changes and maintenances can be costly Insurance for this car is costly Definitely a fun sports sedan Wished it had RWD instead of FWD

This Car Is New To Me. — I've only had it for about a week, so I'll let you know later. So far, it drives nice, feels sporty, and accelerates well for a four-cylinder. It looks nice on the outside, but the interior feels a little cheap with a lot of plastic.

6-speed manual shifts smooth/ great sound system (Buy the optional subwoofer)

This Is A Great Car But It's Really Easy To Go Over The Speed Limit (unintentionally) — I love the car but the key fobs need work, when you hold unlock for three seconds it opens all the windows + sunroof but when you hold lock it won't close the windows you have to go in the car and manually close all the windows

Dream Come True. — It took my breath away from the first moment I sat in it ... and I never got that breath back. I envy myself driving down the road. I catch myself feeling like a little boy who got a matchbox car and can't put it down or let anyone else touch it.

Great Looking And Extremely Comfortable To Drive But Vaguely Disappointing — Don't like the new vague electronic steering. I like Hondas for the steering wheel feel and this car does not have it. Also a bit underpowered on the highway commute. Not as fun to drive as it should be. Premium fuel requirement is also distracting as most Hondas get great performance from regular.
