Son, you have not done any research have you? The Acura TSX directly competes with these:

Acura TSX - 200hp (~$25,300)
Audi 1.8t - 170hp ($25,610)
BMW 325i - 184hp ($28,495)
Jaguar X-Type 2.5L - 192hp ($29,950)
MB C240 - 168hp ($30,565)
Saab 9-3 Linear - 175hp ($26,525)
Volvo S40 - 170hp ($24,560)


They all meet at least 1 of 2 criteria for a premium brand.

1. inline4 or small displacment 6 (<3.0L)
2. starts well under $30k

Lookie there, TSX is one of the leader of the pack in power.
