I just saw for the first time a 2003 comparison of 12 cars including the TSX. It is the most bizarre review as they include a weird array of cars around $30kUS including the WRX, EVO and BMW 325.

It is from one of the US TSX forums - worth a read - and the EVO doesn't win. In some respects it is a crap comparison - eg the authors refer to LSD on the TSX - there is no LSD. Also - lift throttle oversteer? It is not that easy to induce oversteer. Also - note that we get electronic brake dist - but that article says the TSX does not.

Anyway - a review is a review and subjective. I would take the Evo

Nice read, thanks for that :)

Glad that the Euro came out on top! Bit of a price difference for some of those cars from US to here.

Wow the Acura TSX came first place... Wouldn't u believe that.. I would have picked the Evo for sure but they picked the TSX...

Nice find and read Yfin...

Don't believe as well that the Mazda6 the yanks get it in V6 form..

nice find

shame the article wasnt all that great
was just looking at some of the stats.

Pontiac Grand Prix GTP (what a name..............)
3.8L + V6 + supercharger = 260bhp

Nissan Maxima SE
3.5L + V6 = 265bhp

but the pontiac does win hands down with the torque...
