TL or TSX?

I'm debating on either the TL or TSX... I'm leaning more towards the TL... But for the TSX owners.. Why do you think the TSX is better? OTher than the fact that its cheaper...

cheaper is never better...

hehe jk.. i've never been in a tsx but a tl is pretty damn luxurious. i definately recommend it to anymore as long as they like luxury

P.S. it's also pretty quick, around 260hp.

the TSX is more sporty + more tuner backing. if you are going to be leaving the car stock then i say go with the TL its like everyone said more luxurious but if you are going to mod/or especially race then def. go with the TSX

The TSX is more sporty, so it probably feels a bit more peppy, and also has lots of parts available for it

The TL is more of a luxury, I luv the Navi on it.....

I think the TSX feels better on the inside, and I think it looks better on the outside. The TL also has a bunch of torque steer with the 270 HP through the front wheels. Drive both, see which you like better.

I just found a 2004 TSX for $22,000 with 31,000 miles.. Black with Black leather, 6 speed manual.

IS this a good deal? Im going to test drive it and see. I've been inside a TL before.. and man.. those are nice..

I don't plan on Modding to much on the TSX.. Just want a nice decent looking car.... I don't want to lose the comfort from lowering the car..Maybe just get 19in rims... i dunno..

The TL's are around $25-$26,000.. So this would technically give me a few thousand to play around with....

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me, but the mileage is a bit high(more than 12K/year). Navi or no? Check prices on KBB, nada, and Edmunds to see what kind of a deal it really is.

Those miles aren't too bad. Is it certified or just a car from a no name dealership?? There is a service trail attached to that car. Any Acura dealer can pull up every repair and every time that car visited the service department. Make sure you touch every knob and little workable thing in that car to make sure its in tip-top shape. If its coming from a local, round-the-way dealer; HAGGLE, HAGGLE AND HAGGLE some more on the price.

Good luck and if you have some more questions ask. I pm'd you.

The TSX is slow as ballz. A manual TL will rape a TSX.

The TL is a luxury sedan and it is in a completely different class from the TSX. If you rice around the corners or are into autocross, the TSX is a better choice only because it is lighter. And you know what, I don't think the TSX would win by much. A TL would destroy a TSX in a straight line and I don't know about you, but straight line performance is important to me. In fact, there are alot of cars that can outhandle the TSX, even my 13 year-old FWD sedan. I
