From Tsx to BMW.....

Hi all,

Long time no see! I used to own an 04 TSX.
After driving a BMW, i have spent all my time in the BMW forum!
Anyways, I am just dropping by and see how the forum is doing.

When I bought my TSX there were also two used 325's on the lot for around the same price range (before negotiations). Funny, I always thought I would choose a 325 over a Honda/Acura if given the chance. They even had one in my favorite car color - candy apple red. I wound up choosing the TSX because of Honda brand loyalty, the styling and the fact that I have always heard horror stories about the price of BMW routine maintenance not to mention repairs.

Hmm doesnt really seem like much of an upgrade. If I was going to get a 3 series BMW it would have to be a 335i or Id just stick with my TSX. But your driving it so as long as you like it.

Yeah, I went with the 330... Maintenance is in fact a bitch, even with the CPO program in which it doesn't cost me a dime (The dealer is just terrible),

I loved my TSX, but every time i push the Bimmer through her paces, Im reminded of why I made the switch.... good luck with her man.

yeah! i have to admit there isn't any significant upgrade in terms of power in BMW. But the sport package and with a H&R rear sway bar makes me stick with BMW, that makes me consider getting a 335i right now. Dont' get me wrong, i still love the TSX. But honestly, I do feel that, BMW deserves the Ultimate Driving Mechine.
