2009 Acura TSX from the August, 2008 issue
| Reviewed By: | Stefan Lombard |

| Price: | $32,060 |
| Likes: | 201-hp 2.4L iVTEC 4-cylinder revs happily and pulls well from 4,000 rpm. Attractive cabin with leather and quality plastic. Good visibility and excellent, simple navigation system. |
| Gripes: | Torque steer. Feels heavy, with pushy front end. Awkward styling that gets downright ungainly above the wheels. Rear headrest blindspots. Fussy dash. Thirsty, but what fun 200-hp car isn’t? |
| Verdict: | The TSX delivers surprising power from its small engine, but the exterior styling kills it for me. There is nothing distinct about this car and for my money, I’ll take a loaded Accord V6.—SL |
