Questions & Answers

What people are asking about this car
Should I buy an Acura TSX 2008 model?
How is the reliability of this car. I own a VW Jetta four cylinder engine and the pick up is kind of slow on the freeway. How is the four cylinder in the acura? How good or bad is the acceleration with an automatic transmission. Is this a better choice than a Audi A4 08 four cylinder turbo. The audi has great pick up. How expansive is the...

I have a TSX myself, and acceleration isn't what TSX is designed for, they're entry level luxury car, not entry level luxury car that pumps out 300hp at the engine. Honda DOES have torque to that dumb POS up there, how else do you think an integra type R DC5 can make 14sec quarter mile...

Why should I also consider these? X

The 2008 Acura TSX is in a tight size and price bracket, in which people are looking for front-wheel-drive models--possibly with all-wheel drive--and probably rule out the more expensive yet less practical rear-wheel-drive sport sedans like the BMW 3-Series and Infiniti G35.

The Audi A4 2.0T is a close rival to the TSX; its 200-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged engine is close in output to the TSX's engine, but the Audi's advantage in torque makes it feel faster in most real-world driving.

The Audi gets better fuel economy, too, of up to 31 mpg, but it doesn't have handling that's as light and nimble as the TSX.

The Saab 9-3 is another close rival, with the base model priced closely to the TSX, with similar power from its 210-horsepower engine, a standard manual transmission, and a similar cabin: spacious in front, with great seats, but rather small in back.

The Subaru Legacy GT has the all-weather advantage of all-wheel drive, and a bit more power from a 250-horsepower, turbocharged flat-four engine; it doesn't get the gas mileage of the TSX, 9-3, or A4, though.

The Maxima is another alternative; it's larger and roomier--the choice for those who want more backseat space--and it has a smooth and powerful 255-horsepower V-6 engine.

Acura dealership service is another selling point in itself.
