Default Picked up an 06 MT CGP TSX

Hello everyone,

Last Friday I sold my 2005 WRB STi and picked up a 2006 CGP TSX w/ navi. It's definitely a change, but worth it. I got rid of the STI because I need something with relatively better fuel economy. Initially, my choices were an SI sedan or TSX. I am very happy with the car thus far. Hope to get some TL type-s wheels.

I went from a 08 Si sedan to my 04 6-speed TSX. I think the body lines of the TSX look way better,the interior is far nicer and more luxurious, the midrange torque is nicer for around town driving,fuel economy is about the same, and just an overall nicer vehicle.

I do miss the Si's quickness and overall performance. However,I do not miss the cheap interior,the uncomfortable seats that looked 10 years old after 10 months,the tin feeling of the doors,the wind noise at high speeds, and the fact that every dumb kid was trying to race me everytime I went somewhere.

I did notice that the seats of the SI were going to be an issue. I live in SoCal so a lot of teenagers with SI's here.

will do! I think I made a good decision on getting rid of my STI for a TSX. Don't get me wrong, i love the STi, but it was starting to burn a whole through my wallet.

Those are two great cars. Given how much you know about cars, i am sure you'll make a good choice. the evo is a sedan, so you can always take the family out for a fun ride. Keep me posted.
