I was just rolling thought a car lot with my wife and she saw a light blue TSX wagon and said I like that one you should buy it. I said “I would but Honda hates me”. I wouldn’t mind a quick, comfortable Wagon, butI refuse to pay for the displeasure of driving an automatic car.

The future looks grim for you my friend. This is coming from someone who hasn’t owned an automatic in 11 years. I realize that there is a very strong chance my next car will be an automatic and it won’t be by choice.

You don’t want your sportcross to be offered as a manual?

I also want long luscious hair and a 3-car garage, but it ain’t gonna happen.

They should’ve at least offered the 6 cylinder in the wagon.

I have one of these (not light blue but black with TL-S wheels) as my wifes daily driver. Its not bad. Its geared really low so it gives the perception of speed when you take off. The manual control over the trans isn’t anything to write home about but it will let you stay in gear much longer then you would expect on both the high and low end of the rpms. Also fairly competent around bends. It even has a surprisingly little exhaust note coming through the neighborhood.

Why? I think an argument could be made that they never should’ve offered the v6 as an option in any trim of TSX. It let to too much overlap between it and the TL and ultimately led to its death and replacing both with the TLX. For the record my wifes first new car was a first gen 4cl TSX and then we got the TSX wagon.

I 100% agree with this sentiment about the TSX wagon. You can’t get a V6 or AWD either...

It’s almost like they handycapped it to boost RDX sales...

Because even less people would buy it.
