After the Tsx, What to get?

foc-us2k · 04-20-2009, 12:22 PM

Hello all, I have had my 06 Tsx since january of 06. Its been a good run and her warrenty is about to be up soon. I was looking at what to get next. I test drove the new Tsx and I am not that fond of the new navi system and the front grill, (I don't like the toggle in the middle of the dash). I was wondering what people after the Tsx have gotten into? Two of the cars I am thinking of are in the poll.

I would get a used IS250 or IS350 (still expensive).

I personally like the Lancer better than the STI as well.

You two choices are somewhat similar types but still fit different needs. If you are about going fast, tracking/racing the STI is more for you. If you want a reliable, conservative but still somewhat fast car, then the Accord is good. I think either one is a solid pick.

I would upgrade to a SUV... maybe an Infiniti FX35/45

I would probably get an Alfa Romeo when they are available in North America

Just look at the grill

well if I have more money then it will definitely be a GTR

Whenever I get outa the TSX I hope to stay with Honda. It depends on what you are looking for in a car. Choosing between those two you are thinking of are like comparing grapes to watermelons.

next line up will be a M45 infiniti

my next car would have to be some sort of SUV/CUV since my wife and i might have 2nd child. off the top of my head, the pilot or RAV4 might be options. maybe that accord-based wagon whenever it comes out and if it's nice. the CR-V might be an option too, but it doesn't look too roomy.

if it were just another sedan or coupe, i'm not sure what i'd get. i think the new audi's are just pure sex. maybe the a4 or a5, or the s or RS variants if i could afford it.

honestly, if i had the money right now i'd buy a fit or a genesis coupe just for the fun of it.

I hope you were referring to the pre-face lift FX's. The new one was butchered and then beat with the Fugly stick.

To the OP, the 2 cars you listed are quite different. I have a couple friends with STi's, and I've sat and drove the 2007, although it goes fast, the build/interior seems kind of hollow, much like a Civic, unfortunately. The new STi however, has a much nicer quality to it, but not many like the hatchback/sportback/wagon-on-steroids look.

If you want speed/performance, then STi. If you just want more power occasionally and enjoy the comfort of your ride, get the Accord. I plan to keep my TSX til it dies and pick up a summer car when I'm done paying off the TSX.

STi limited edition. It's still the same car, but with leather and such.

I'm going through the same dilemma! Except if I had a choice, I would've kept the TSX. But since that isn't an option, I'm leaning more towards a G37 type-s or 335xi coupe!

Your changing your car already!? And v8 juice is for wimps, not pimps.

I went for a BMW 330xi... very happy with the upgrade... theres a lot of guys on e90post that used to be TSX Owners, seems like a popular move.

DVS · 04-20-2009, 08:14 PM

I would go for IS350 or 330i

Thanks for all the input, I can't decide what to get. I have got to be the biggest honda fanboy that ever lived. I have owned other brand cars but I have also had a honda at the same time. That being said, I have no clue what to look at. I really dont want to spend a arm and a leg for a car again, less than 30K would be nice.
