No such thing as a base model TSX. Only navi and no navi. Sounds like you should do more research.

There are five trim levels for the TSX. They start at 30,510 and go as high as 39,150.

I'm sure the 2008 had similar trim levels, jerk.

No. They didn't. There was only auto or manual with navi or without.
I know. I own one. I'm not a jerk, you're just an idiot.

They now have the I4 and V6 option which probably makes up a lot of the pricing differences. You should look into the Special Edition package TSX. The interior is awesome, and it's only a few thousand apart from a fully loaded ILX. Seems like a no brainer comparison to me.

A few thousand will break my bank. Im stretching it as is buying a $30,000 car.


Why are you so hostile Brice?
There are accessories that cost on top of the price of the car. Chances are, a TSX with nothing additional will cost the same as an ilx with heated full leather seats, 2 view rear view camera, bluetooth, keyless entry and push start, plus the random add ons like floor mats, splash guards, 3m protective films. Not to mention the interior of the ilx is almost identical to the brand new TSX.

ILX just seems like a better buy for me.
Plus I love how the ilx looks. Honestly more than the TSX. Now the TL Id take over both. But the front end of the ilx looks like the TL and I love it.

Sounds like you've already made up your mind to make a poor choice. The cost of a used 2008 TSX or 2008 TL will be half of the price of a new ILX and dominant in every way. The ILX has the same interior space as a civic which is significantly smaller than a TSX or TL.

You aren't doing the right research you're only trying to prove that the ILX is the correct car for you. Congrats on choosing to overpay for a rebadged civic Si.

No they sell it ported for $100 dollar extra... but I did have it resurfaced at the machine shop next door... I switched out everything from my old Cylinder Head to the new one... thats the third head we are you using from that company... we are making almost 700whp on a mustang dyno with stock sleeves built motor on my boyz eg coupe with the same ported head... non ported is like $350 and the ported is like $450 shipped only issue using the head is when I put my Pro1 cams in... it hits the Cam Rails so they had to grind the bottom of the rails for the lobe to have clearance not by much tho...

I'm not that worried about anything on the Internet, Matt. It's just fun to watch a doofus try and dig himself out of a hole when he's obviously full of ****.

Yeah I ran into the same problem with the pro1's. How you get that much power on stock sleeves? I thought they were only good to like 500-ish hp.
Sweet build btw

*fixed

Which hole would that be?

Man, if I could afford 600 dollar monthly payments do you think I'd be buying an ILX? ****, Id go Audi or something with cash like that.

Regardless, I'm happy with my car so you can get your panties twisted as much as you want trying to figure out my car payments brotha. Clearly it's been some time since you have leased to own a brand new car.

$372 to be exact since adding all the accessories I wanted.
$339 had I not added the factory accessories.


Took it home last night. Bringing it back to Acura on Wednesday to get the windows tinted, splash guards, mats, locks, etc and a detailing.
I love it and it's building my credit for the future.
