TSX in snow by liz15

My Subaru lease is up this month and I am thinking of leasing a TSX. My only concern is how the car does in the snow?

Depending on where you live, you may want to put on dedicated snow tires (on all four corners). The TSX will do fine. It may not start going so quickly as your AWD vehicle, but it'll steer & stop the same.
 
Don't drink (all of) the AWD Kool-Aid.

depends on how well you can drive in the snow. You should not have problems unless it is icy roads-nothing is good on them-just slow down

2008 Acura TSX vs 2009 Acura TSX by gregd1

Anyone know why Acura removed the touch screen Nav in the 2009 TSX? Were there lots of problems?
 
Also, what do people think of the new head rests in the 2009 TSX? They seem to have the Volvo headrests. Am I the only person that finds that kind of headrests gives you a neck cramp?
 
Would anyone buy a used 2008 TSX because of these issues? What would people expect to pay for one like this:
http://acura.rizzacars.com/vehicleDisplay.php?carID=25552#js
2008 tsx Mileage 9,872
 
What would people pay for a new 2008 TSX with nav? Such as this one:

Hi there. For pricing, you'll want to look at what others are talking about in the TSX Prices Paid and Buying Experience discussion. You can get good ideas of what others are paying over there.

Cost and long term reliability. Touch screens are more expensive and more prone to fail than non-touch screens. It's not just Honda, but all automakers are going away from touch screens. Another perhaps minor reason: software development - probably cheaper, more flexible and portable writing software for a non touch screen.

2009 TSX Problem with low front end by liz15

Noticed that I have to go very slow while going down driveway incline or front end bottom will hit concrete. Anyone else have this problem. Also, noticed the under of the front end is scratched from this, will this get worse with time.. should I repair?

It is a common problem with all cars with a front air dam, and sporty cars in particular. No much you can do except approach steep driveway inclines slowly and/or at an angle. If the scratches are not that noticeable (and they shouldn't be unless you got down on your hands and knees to look for them), I would just leave it, since it won't do any harm.

If you go to either the tsx club or acurazine website you will read how other tsx owners consider them 4 x 4's. They lower them. I love it the way it is.

09 TSX Fuel by jk894

Does anyone use non-premium fuel (lower than 91 octane) and what has been your experience? I just bought an 09 TSX and was wondering what fuel I should use.
  
My previous car was an 01 Passat that also called for premium but based on the advice of other owners I used 89 octane and the car served me well for 115,000 miles.
