The car looks great in it's 30k trim. Lets see the 20k 90% of sales trim.

who gives a $hit about the outlander? Why is this even being discussed?

I want more of the 328i with leatherette elitest posers telling me rwd cant be beat.

Closest competitor is the Legacy GT which is a great car, but the interior wasnt as nice as the tsx, and lets face it, the resale value of the tsx is OUT OF THIS WORLD. Lets put a 2004 TSX and a 2004 Legacy GT out for sale on a corner and see which one will sell first.

@ RV

Dude are you really comparing a 2002 WRX to a TSX? Have you ever sat in a TSX? I assure you the TSX's interior will make the WRX feel like the $hitty econobox interior it is. WRX is a corolla with a turbo, nothing more. TOTALLY DIFFERENT TARGET AUDIENCE.

The camry is a whale compared to the TSX, just like the Accord. Totally different target market as well.

I did cross shop a legacy GT but interior of TSX was better, so were reliability and resale values.

Call me whatever you want, but if your looking for a sporty sedan under 30k, with style AND COMFORT the TSX CAN NOT BE BEAT.

@ Neoterix

I RARELY SEE loaded up 325's. I live in North Jersey by the way. Most of the 325's i see are the base models with only leather and 16inch wheels. You call that "Bavarian Flair". Those are what I call posers, only interested in telling people they drive a "bimmer".

Who in their right mind would buy a base 328 over a TSX? Unless they were looking for the badge only? I agree that no one that can afford a 40k bimmer is cross shopping this with a TSX.

Just bought an 08 TSX 6 Speed 2 weeks ago. For the Money this thing cant be beat by anything in the segment. Price out a 328 with the same options and you'll be right about 40k.

Sure I would love to Drive a bimmer, but not for 14k more than I paid for my similarly equipped TSX.

That picture is HYSTERICAL. Autoblog you guys should use this pic for any story, even if it has no relevence to the story you are printing, lol

YOu guys are crazy. THe 3rd one was BY FAR THE MOST ENTERTAINING and most accurate. Sure those crazy drifts in parking garage werent really believable but the 3rd was a pretty good flick. Not oscar worthy, but pretty good way to spend 80 minutes of my time.

Now the first and 2nd were catastrophies. The first one with SR20 engines in civics, and 9 speed mitsu trannys, etc, the 2nd one with that horrible pink s2000 and aweful acting and story line.

Just keep walker and diesel out of part 4 like they did with 3 and everything will be ok.

Dont worry he has a lime green and blue one too seen here

From fitty's hot new single "Get Money"

"You can call this my new shit
but it aint new tho
i got rid of my old bitch
now i got new hoes
first is was the Benzo
now im in the Enzo, Ferrari, im sorry!
I keep blowin up! (Oh!!)"

-fitty on why he keeps going from expensive exotic to expensive exotic

All the automakers know this. Thats why both Honda AND Lexus are set to introduce hybrid ONLY models. Honda will introduce one below the civic and Lexus below the is250/350.

This really isnt news, didnt autoblog run a story about someone buying a 2001 civic ex 5sp manual and getting something like 45/47 mpg driving economically. Basically the story was showing how you could get ALMOST as good mialage while saving a substatial amount of money.
