What Our Members Are Saying about the Available Features of the 2013 Acura TSX

2013 Acura TSX Available Features: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan 201-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Even without the tech package, the car is very well-equipped for the price. Favorite features are the automatic xenon headlights and the flawless bluetooth-iPod interface. Base stereo is decent, most of the time I play an mp3 disk or bluetooth music from my iPhone. see full Acura TSX review

YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr SUV 260-horsepower 3.0L I6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Most available features such as cd changer, docking station, trailer hitch are very expensive for this type of vehicle (high end) see full BMW X3 review

The price of the X3 runs up very fast as most desirable features are a la carte and expensive. The interior has some very poor design features. Opening the center console is rediculous. A segmented plastic piece makes it difficult to accomplish. see full BMW X3 review
