Areas for improvement: Poor heating system. Fair weather tires Erratic voice control system. Audio system mediocre at best.
I bought the TSX because nothing with its features is even close in price. I was also impressed with the reliability history. Most of my complaints deal with problems in cold weather. One of the windshield wipers leaves a big gap, inexcusable for a luxury class car. The car takes forever to heat up, making it hard to keep the windows fully defrosted. The heated seats take a long time to warm up. The heater fan output is downright paltry. My feet are still cold after 30 minutes. The standard Michlein tires have a very weak tread and are nearly useless on ice or snow. When the car is cold, the voice recognition system seems to go haywire, doing things no where near what I requested. Strangly enough, it performs fairily well once the interior finally heats up. If you live where the winters are cold, this is not the car for you.

Areas for improvement: some issues with the interior
Great car, sharp little mini-TSX.
- Kinda pricey compared to a Civic EX however adds HIDs, Leather, Navi (an option), and 6 Disc CD Changer with MP3.
- Fuel economy is good, uses regular fuel in comparison with premium with other Acuras.
- Noticed some issues with the interior, but should be addressed by the dealer.
