The paddle shifters on the wheel are a nice touch.
Yeah would of been nice if they kept the up n down on the shifter too; but I like the shifter overall
Honda said it was cost. I read somewhere that it would add $10k - $15k or something rediculous to the price. In the states, the TSX competes with the IS250. Here the IS250 is what, $20k dearer?Quote:

But the little pockets on the side of the center console are handy as hell for pens and phone, really probably one of the more useful interiors out there
So I take it that you're looking at getting one?
How did you find the road noise and power over your '04?
The 08 TSX apparently plays DVD Audio disks. I'm not familiar with that format but test reviews say the audio of the TSX is stunning when playing the DVD Audio format. I don't know if that means it will also play DVD movie disks.Quote:

Thanks. I was not familiar with the DVD Audio format.Quote:

I should have driven it back to back, but I wasn't interested at all in getting another "old" euro.
Road noise was quiet in accord euro fashion. You can still hear the engine when you boot it, so not all is lost!!!
It drove really well. I flogged it around some roundabouts, and it stayed somewhat flat and just gripped. You can really tell that the chassis is a whole lot stiffer. I would change the tyres to something more sportier though. My corolla (that im trading in) has michi's on and although they last great, grip is lacking from them.
Since it looks like you're the 1st. new Euro owner here we'll all be waiting to hear a review after you 've had a chance to put it through it's paces over the next couple of weeks.:):pQuote:

I still think my Euro is still very nice to drive...or I wait until the new Euro got facelifted in its mid-life (2-3 years later maybe)?
