The 2009 Acura TSX
One of the new sports cars for 2009, the Acura TSX, is out to become the premiere choice as an entry point for high-end buyers. Far exceeding anyone’s expectations, this new model of Acura is larger, faster, more agile, and more performance oriented than any previous model of Acura TSX. One can trace how this series of car has evolved over time, now offering better comfort, convenience, and pleasure than ever before. The car has been targeted to current Acura owners, young professionals, and pretty much anyone that appreciates style and is out to make an impression.
The 2009 Acura TSX features a 4 cylinder engine, a dual balance shaft, and a direct ignition system. You will find that it offers all around better control and performance than the previous models, and it is on better terms with the EPA as well. It is the first TSX sports car ever to be a certified CARB LEV II Ultra Low Emission Vehicle. The improved performance of this vehicle is largely attributed to the higher compression ratio, newly created valve timing, and improved intake and gas exhaust flow.
The new sports car also has two transmissions to choose from: a 6 speed manual transmission, and a 5 speed automatic. The automatic features a new lock up torque converter. The manual transmission is so light and easy to use, that people who have had trouble with stick shifts in the past are going to be eager to give it a try. It also features Grade Logic Control and Shift Hold Control that makes driving on hills and mountains easier than ever before.
Even the body of the new Acura TSX is breaking new ground for the company. It features a closed channel, cross braced roof structure and inside frame rails. This altogether produces a structure that is more resistant to vibration. The frame rails make the car more aerodynamic which will help make the car more fuel friendly. With the ever rising price of gas this is definitely a plus. The dimensions of the vehicle make it a bit roomier than its past incarnations, and it features better handling and ride quality as well.
When designing the exterior of the vehicle, the creators were attempting to create a vehicle that did not just look great, but was highly functional as well. Just one look at the Acura TSX sports car and you can tell that they definitely succeeded. Using only high quality materials, the car features many contemporary shapes and styles that end up being quite impressive. Just a few of its many attributes include: metal doors, leather seats, steering wheel mounted controls, a 7 speaker surround system, and much more.
It can be seen plainly, that this car is going to be a great sports car for both the new car owner and the connoisseur alike. It features a low base price of $28,960 which is certainly low enough that many people will be able to purchase it.
