Tsx?

Hey what do you guys think about a TSX? I know its a RSX board but you guys are pretty knowledgable- me and the wife are looking at one for after my next deployment- because we are thinking about a kid. I just dont see to many poeple modding them- or really any 1/4 mile times or dyno sheets. any help would be appreciated :confused:

Not as big of an aftermarket, but its a luxurious car, and both Comptech and Jackson Racing should have super chargers for them soon. Cybernations is working on a turbo. I'd def. consider it.

Yeah one wouldn't expect a huge aftermarket for the tsx, but a supercharger would be nice.... It won a comparison in C&D over the A4, Legacy, and S40 in terms of family oriented fuel effecient cars...the only thing I would say against is that my dad was looking at a tsx, Im 6'2 210lbs and it was a very snug fit for the driver...my dads 6'6 and it wasnt even an option for him....However, he did fit in a Subaru Legacy...So I dunno I sorta picture you as a built dude, and space is minimal for the husky gentleman

for 4 g more, they got the RL.... and ha ha i wish i was built i am in a airborne unit - all we do is run. and run. and run some more. I am 6'2 though- but I fit oin my RSX just fine. Is it really smaller then the RSX.

i meant to add a ? on to that. HUSKY? did you see the picture of my wife on Car domain and think my wife is a chubby chaser? ha ha just messing around. Thanks for your guys input though- I think I might just save an extra few grand and get the TL- or the RL whichever is the 32,000 one. its got 270 hp with a 6 speed- Ill take that :evillol:

I would get one just to have a nice car, but I would not do anything to it, that is what the RSX is for. TSX has teh same hp and everything, but lower compression, heavier. I bet it rides nice though. Idependant wishbone susspension, sexy, and a nice magnesium case one the tranny. I would consider that, but I have my eyes set on a BMW 3 series, so sexy.

Buy a TL or an RL, tsx is too slow.

yeah TL is looking nice- I have to make a 9000 dollar down payment to be able to afford the payments- but guess thats what hazard pay is for huh?

TL = FWD, 270HP, 6MT, LSD.
RL = SH-AWD (worlds most advanced AWD), 300hp, 262tq, Navi, SmartKey, much more. I'd love an RL but $$$$

I would get the New RL that gto everthing you need plus more.

They're all beautiful cars. Why go broke on the TL or RL? You'll need the money for the kid anyway. The TSX is a great little car. Do like Canuck said- drop in a SC for a little fun when the baby's not in the car.

You headed to Iraq soon? My buddy's headed back for the second time. Intel- with 7th out of Texas. Looks like he's gonna be in Baghdad again. Good luck, man.

for 4 g more, they got the RL.... and ha ha i wish i was built i am in a airborne unit - all we do is run. and run. and run some more. I am 6'2 though- but I fit oin my RSX just fine. Is it really smaller then the RSX.

Sorry for the delay in reply...that pesky bug called University has kept me busy.....yeah its weird the rsx is almost to big for me to sit in, but in a tsx i barely fit....im guessing its the seats in the rsx, I sink like 11 feet... but the tsx is outrageously fun to drive, looks classy, and doesnt take too much out of your childs college fund, compared to t TL or RL

thanks man I appreciate it- going to afghanistan actually- with the 173rd airborne brigade

If i move - ill go to the RL. But me and the wife decided to trade in her junk 01 sentra gxe and get her a used 4 door GSR- after looking at all the 4 door s and all that- I ll go eventually- but I have decided to work the RSX for every dime its worth until I trade up.

Get a low miles used TL. You can always find a deal if you look hard enough. I looked very hard at the TL but decided on my Max instead. It is a little bit quicker and the price was much much nicer than that of any new TL I found but when you get back from deployment there should be some nice TLs that are lease returns or the like at auction.
