Got my TSX

Picked up my TSX last week.
Only put 40 miles on it so far because I've been busy and driving my beater to work while I break in the TSX.

The voice activated nav/radio/hvac is super sweet.
Still getting used to saying the keywords and getting it to understand my voice.

First mod was to swap out the rather ugly stock wheels (aftermarket wheels are on in the pics).
Next mod will be 35% tint all around, and the A-spec suspension for a mild 1" drop.

Sell me your rims so I could put it on my 06 civic, plz. 😀

EDIT: I mean your original TSX rims, or did you buy it with hubcaps?

You really want 'em?
Most people find them ugly.

PM me if you want 'em. I have another buyer who might be backing out.

Well, just about anything is a step up from the puny 1.6L in my old Sentra so I'm content.

I obviously didn't place straight line speed at the top of my list.
Otherwise I'd be in a GTO or Mustang GT for $30k.

I was looking for a little bit of luxury, reliability, sporty handling (stick a must), tech and fuel efficiency.
TSX was pretty much the only car that fits the bill.

It doesn't come with hubcaps, it comes with wheels that actually look pretty good.
 
Nice TSX, although I like my 04 TL the TSX stands on its own merits. I drove a couple of auto TSX?s but never a manual. Can you give me some impressions on their driving differences? Did you demo a manual TL?

Legacy GT😉 25k for 250/250. Add another k and you're at 300/350😉

Oh man thats nice, I still want the TSX or TL.

Are those rims the standard rims? I would not get those, but thats my opinion.

These are cheap, lightweight rims to hold me over until I can afford these.

Test drove a 2006 TL (auto).

The power was definitely there, as was the torque steer which is an instant turn off for me.
Handling was a bit more sloppy, and I could feel the V6 weighing the front heavy chassis down.

The TSX is much more nimble and tossable in the turns.
