Nice interior by aming

Mike it definitely has a better interior AND Exterior then the Accord and for that reason I wanted to test drive it.
 
It fell short in a few critical areas for me and therefore it's off the shopping cart.
 
Areas it fell short (that I required):
 
- Less interior space especially the rear.
- Power - I've been waiting for honda to increase the horses in the accord and finally they met my expectations.
- regular fuel vs premium fuel.
- more trunk space.
- mileage (very close but I believe the accord is rated better). More power and better mileage ... can't beat that combo.
- The seat is perfect for me in the accord and a little snug in the TSX. Long drives could be an issue for me.
 
cheers...

Bank Residuals for leases have nothing to do with actual market values for resale. I can pretty much assure you that the TSX won't be worth 64% of sticker in 3 years. That's an inflated lease rate to get the payment low. Bad move if you understand leasing.

The superior styling and quality of material of the TSX along with the power and room and comfort of the Accord V6.......in the '04 TL.
 
I think I will line up for one with chequebook in hand. If Navi is also offered, I'll be laughing!

There is some resemblance, but overall it's fairly attractive. Actually, IMO, even better than the tail lights on the new TL.

HELP ME...I know you all have been over this before in previous talks........but I need more than that....I'm still not sure what to do.
 
I'm 23, engaged, not looking for the most speed, just an upgrade from my pathetic 89 camry 4 banger.
 
I can afford about 30 or so, without saying why for any of the following, i simply stated want, luxury feel, good pick up, front wheel drive, very low maintaince 4 door sedan.
 
Honda/Acura seem to have what I'm looking for, I just can't make up my mind on which....the 03 Accord Sedan, V6 EX w or w/o Navi...the 04 TL or TSX...of even a used 01, 02 TL or the new 03 TL before the new one comes out.....
 
Such dilemmas.......ideas appreciated immensly. I obviously can't make up my own mind, so someone help me make it for me! haha

TSX vs Accord V6? or I4 by jcihak

If you don't care primarily about acceleration, you should be comparing the Accura to a 4cyl EX-L and save yourself another $2k. Or get the navi instead of the V6. The 4 cyl Accord has good acceleration (not great) but will certainly be a step up from an '89 Camry.
 
Don't forget to factor in the higher fuel costs for premium gas, plus the 4 cyl Accord will get much better mileage than the Accura. Figure $200 extra/yr for gas for 15k miles/year.

V6 by fserve55

The only reason I'd get a 4 banger is because that's all that's offered in the TSX. I would like a V6 but, I'm leaning toward the TSX.
 
I'm kind of comparing apples and oranges I know, but I don't want a V4 accord, if I do, I'll just get the TSX.
 
Pricing wise, from original MSRP. The fully loaded top of the line EX Accord w/Navi is very comparable to the TSX w/Navi.
 
I guess I should be comparing the EX Accord w/Navi to the TL w/Navi....haha...but that would make too much sense!

I know you are rite Ken, BUT, since I'm used to an 89 camry, I also described the TSX AND the NEW and/even OLD TL.
 
Again, when I say 30 or so, I guess I really mean 25 to 35.
 
So it's a toss up. I'm more on the side of the Accord and the TSX...not so much the TL...if the TL it would have to be the new one I think....the old (03) and before are (as someone else told me) on an old platform and isn't such a good car anymore.
