v6 is faster in straight line, but handling is not as tight and its heavier.
Tsx is pure joy to drive in corners as well as straight.
Accord has rommier interior.
If you want something more sporty, get TSX. if you want more comfort, get accord.
both are great cars.

I <3 my accord v5
accord coupe > tsx
everyone and there mom has a tsx, so it isn't all that unique.
i doubt the resale value, as a percentage of what you pay, is any worse on the accord than the tsx. and because the accord is less expensive to begin with, your absolute loss is smaller.

I do know what I am talking about if I go by my original source:
This is the magazine where I got my times from:
2005 Accord Hybrid: 1/4 15.2 (they even said it was the fastest accord they have ever tested)
http://www.caranddriver.com/article.asp...ion_id=3&article_id=8779&page_number=4
2004 Acura TSX
1/4 15.6 (manual?)
http://www.caranddriver.com/article.asp...ion_id=3&article_id=6742&page_number=3
I got both..
Handling: TSX has much better handling, I can't seem to get my accord to feel like a TSX, got HR springs, tokico shocks strut/sway bars... still doesn't feel anything close to a TSX.
MPG: The old Accord runs on regular, the new accord (7th gen) runs better with higher octane. I get about 27 MPG with the TSX, about 25 with the Accord
Lights: HID vs No HID. Yes, I like to blind people
Speed: Accord are faster, good luck trying to find a 6 speed v6 on the coupes, not every dealer has one. Faster = worse MPG.. so take your pick. TSX has optional comptech supercharger - its on comptech's site. Its in the final phase of development. TSX also has Hondata, giving it +29 hp & +256 ft/lb of torque. Hondata may release kpro engine management and then it's all over.. there are also performance cams and better after market junk for the tsx. I think the TSX lacks torque big time.. I like the feel of the accord's torque better. I believe C&D got 0-60 on tsx at 6.5, so it depends on the driver

'05 version are not out yet but 05 supposely gets higher HP with hondata but thats not confirm yet..
Size: accord - large (sits 5 great) and tsx - smaller (sits 4 great). Accord has bigger trunk space, tsx doesn't
Interior - similar, i got nav on tsx and no nav on accord
Cup holder - accord has like 8, tsx has 2
My snow tires from accord fits my tsx 🙂

Wow, you managed to discount your own opinion in the second sentence of your own post.
Congratulations!
