I love how the center cluster blends even more seamlessly into the dashboard than the Accord. Those gauges are :thumbup: . Sedans don't appeal to me very much, but the TSX really hits a home run in my opinion.

True, but you can see that a lot of things stayed the same. Tastefully done in both cases.

The car looks pretty boring. Yeah yeah, it's nicely designed and it's a better version of the euro-spec Accord but my reaction when I see it is just...meh. There's nothing exciting about it. When I look at an IS300 or G35 I see the classic RWD wheelbase with an agressive stance and short front overhang. "This thing is a sports sedan," is the reaction. When I look at the TSX I just think, "oh look, a euro-spec Accord."

I like it. The gauges are my favorite part, they should get some sales by themselves. Good job redoing this, Acura :thumbup:
Query: What is that compartment below the stereo controls? On the Accord, it holds CD's. But it looks different on this.

Cars with more sporting inclinations tend to sacrifice some interior room. Besides, how often will you have to carry around more than yourself and maybe one passenger?
Although when I think about cars my first thought generally isn't their interior volume...

I told Chris this. But my next car was going to be either a TL-S or an IS300 for different reasons. TL-S was a better value and had more room, but the IS300 was a much more fun car to drive. But if I can afford more than $40k, I'll take a 330ci over both of them.
I think maybe this TSX might bump the IS300 off my very possible next car list. I have to test drive it first.
