6 speeds...ratios by tawneycat

While they are available. I have trouble here in the mid west finding them. Yes, dealer x has black on black but if you want say Carbon Gray with Quartz--none in region. Order January get in March. In high density areas like east and west coast I would think dealer trades much closer and easier to specific color.
 
Anyone else notice how high the rpms are on the TSX 6 speed in 6th gear on the highway. Great for acceleration but over 3200 rpm on turnpike is a waste of energy. The new Jetta turbo is the same. I got 31 mpg on a 200 mile highway trip and that is good but always reaching to shift to overdrive as the final ratio is busy busy busy or elfin as one car magazine maybe Edmunds said. Close ratio is close ratio but 6th could be more of an overdrive than it is. Otherwise, smooth and powerful.

I'd also try Park Avenue Acura. A few years ago when my parents were looking for cars, they gave the best price and were the easiest to deal with by far.

6sp MT w/Navi by pkagent

I'm also looking to buy a 6sp MT with Nav. I'd like to know if anyone's bought one and what a good price range would be. I'm tempted to wait a few months just so they are more flexible on the prices.

I agree with you on the high RPMs in 6th gear. Unfortunately I think that is the price you pay to get that kind of performance out of a 4-cyl. It was one of the issues that drove me to buy a V-6 Accord instead. The 6spd on my car has wider ratios and I can loaf along at 2500rpm at 80mph. It's not only more energy efficient but also makes for a much quieter and smoother ride.

What issues? What price? The TSX 2.4 in 6th gear high freeway speeds is as smooth and quiet as an engine needs to be at those speeds. You guys are making too much of this.
 
I've had mine as high as 90-100 MPH and engine noise and/or NVH is simply not an issue with this car.
 
Except for the sometimes awkward 1-2 gear ratio the TSX is perfectly geared IMO, speaking of the 6 MT, of course.
