#166 of 4349 The point of a TSX by aqpham Jun 25, 2003 (11:26 am)
"I hope Honda is listening and does bring over a decontented TSX for about $20K. (no leather, no xenon, no climate control, just plain A/c, power windows and locks, optional sunroof, and 16 inch wheels instead of useless 17)"   Remember why Honda made the TSX: to fill in the gap between the TL and the RSX. If there was a TSX version at about $20 grands, then where would the RSX be. Also, the TSX came to the market as a near luxury sport sedan, so I think that all of the features that came with it really justify its existence.
#167 of 4349 #166 A discontented TSX is called an Accord by midnightcowboy Jun 26, 2003 (5:51 am)
There will not be a discontented TSX. The Acura philosophy is to have a fully loaded vehicle with no options, that is except NAV. And in probably a couple of years that won't be an option either.   Pretty soon there will not be a color option, black will be the only color.   And Acura will become the affordable Luxury car for the masses and it will be renamed with a new model moniker , Model "T".

leather is not it is all cracked up to be. It is finniky, it is hot in summer, cold in winter, need constant attention or it will crack. The only thing leather is better at is when you have kids and they spill stuff on your seats.   Well I've had cars with and without leather and I much prefer the leather, not because it gives the appearance of luxury, but because I feel it's more comfortable, easier to clean, and looks better. I will never go back to cloth seats.   TSX is a better compromize than Accord V6, if you driven one, you will soon feel the "nose heavy" characteristics. Besides, the new Accord is about the size of my grandma's Buick park avenue. Way too big for my liking.   Well I've driven both. I did not find the Accord too nose heavy and I don't think it's too big. In fact, I think it's the perfect size. The TSX on the other hand is too small. I feel like I'm driving a Civic.   I hope Honda is listening and does bring over a decontented TSX for about $20K. (no leather, no xenon, no climate control, just plain A/c, power windows and locks, optional sunroof, and 16 inch wheels instead of useless 17)   Why don't you just get a Civic instead?
#169 of 4349 Leather, How about the .... Escaine by midnightcowboy Jun 26, 2003 (6:55 am)
leather in IS300. It is kind of a suede-like and is cool in the summer, not cold in the winter and is easy to clean and does not show wear.
#170 of 4349 TSX is not civic by dudka Jun 26, 2003 (7:31 am)
TSX is not Civic, I already have one. I want a slightly bigger car, but not as big as accord. TSX is what the rest of the world enjoys as Accord. I guess I understand about bridging the gap between the RSX (Intergra) and TL (Legend). what about bridging the gap between Civic and the New accord. There used to be Nissan Altima, but it too gone the steroidal injection and overgrew.   "Dukda #133 "I just feel like I'm not getting my money's worth if I don't get a V6."   M3, IS300 they are not V6s but inline 6s"   I was just qouting previous poster.   "Well I've had cars with and without leather and I much prefer the leather, not because it gives the appearance of luxury, but because I feel it's more comfortable, easier to clean, and looks better. I will never go back to cloth seats."   I have had cars with leather, and would never go back to leather. To each is his own. I don't like the burning hot leather against my skin in summer, and stiff ice cold in winter. And if you are wearing anyhting, most people do when they drive, you will most defenately slide in the seat. At least I do, in turns.
#171 of 4349 Reminder - what this discussion is about by fernhill Jun 26, 2003 (11:20 am)
People, people - while your chatter about the TSX is fascinating (not really) isn't the discussion on this thread suppose to be what someone paid for their TSX and not about the chartacteristics of the car, (leather, 4 cyl vs. 6 cyl, etc.)?
#172 of 4349 by KarenS HOST Jun 27, 2003 (7:36 am)
fernhill is right. If you wish to discuss the various features of the TSX, please do so in the general discussion in Sedans.   Thanks!
#173 of 4349 Invoice pricing by redkey1 Jul 01, 2003 (8:34 am)
How long will it take before TSX sells close to invoice like the RSX-S? Friend of mine just got one for below invoice.
#174 of 4349 re: Invoice Pricing by aggie1995 Jul 01, 2003 (8:59 am)
Probably a long long time ..... maybe never.   At 15,000 units a year they don't have to come off the price very much at all. However if demand for this vehicle is only about 7000 then you'll see some discounts.   But my guess is that there are at least 10,000 Honda/Acura loyalists who will flock to this car and maybe another 5000 who are just won over by the overall goodness and balance of this vehicle especially considering it's price range.
#175 of 4349 Invoice Pricing by damormino Jul 03, 2003 (4:50 pm)
I doesn't hurt to make an offer. My neighbor offer $3160 below MSRP for the brand new Lexus RX330 SUV and they accepted. He just happened to wander in on a Wednesday night. The sales manager was gone and they hadn't sold one car all afternoon. Just be prepared to get the run around - counter offers, maybe you'll be pushed toward a lease. Just look tell them, "No. I made you an offer. If you don't want to accept it, just say so and I'll leave." (Then you leave.) The TSX has a very disappointing radio and is a little underpowered - especially at full load. Tell then you don't think it's worth what they want and you'll only pay what it's worth. Let us know what happens - and be prepared to buy.
