RWD > FWD, regardless of body style.

one of the huge things back then was gas mileage if in remember correctly it was near $3.60 for premium in and around chicago.

but the tsx is so damn weak. i feel like a wuss driving it around.

I wouldn't trade my sedan for a coupe, let alone a TSX.

So your child is now 3 so that makes you able to switch back to G coupe? AT 3, the carseat is still pretty bulky.

As mentioned the TSX doesn't have a big motor. But it's a well sorted chassis despite it's FWD. They race these things in Europe. Handling-wise, I doubt the OP drives hard enough to notice the difference in fwd/rwd as the TSX is pretty good.

Power? Well that's going to be noticable. How about SC's the TSX?

Just buy a G35 sedan if you still need to tote a baby around. Then you get what your old G was, with the functionality of the TSX.

I never understood why someone would buy a TSX. Unless its gas mileage. Rather have a G sedan, or if i had to get an Acura, a TL which blows the TSX out of the water.

I looked at TLs, TSXs, and G sedans when I bought my last car. I bought the G for a TON of reasons where the Acuras failed.

TL Type S looks pretty nice though.

Never been a fan of honda/acura especially my dads tl type s. The trans always sucks and they are way overpriced. But trading a car in youll never get the value you think, but gl with whatever you decide to do.
