I think the new TL is an AMAZING car. I think I talked my old man into buying one! I even talked him into doing a 6 speed and I'm going to teach my step mom how to drive it. haha.
The TSX is a hell of a car too. My brother was considering going for a TSX but decided to go for the RSX-S instead, simply because its a little less money and he wants to mod it.
He was considering the Accord too, but there wasn't much comparison. The Accord was faster in a straight line, but the TSX handled much better, and was much more fun to drive.

But then the TL would have to be bumped up to 300 hp and then the RL wouldn't sell and the NSX's engine wouldn't get any more props. See, that's what honda gets for making their upper end cars so sorry.

hmm, you should compare the TSX to say a civic and compare the accord to the TL. The TSX was never ment to be compared to the Accord, at least i dont think. It is true that in europe and japan, the TSX is named the Accord Euro R but thats only a name. Furthemore, the TL and Accord sharded (not sure about the new one) the same chasis.

Yeah, I believe the TSX is build on the Euro Accord platform, and features the same motor that's in a Type-S RSX.
I can see a TSX in the future with the V6 from the Accord EX though. That would be a screamer.
Oh, and the climate controls in a TSX equipped with the DVD naviagtion system are voice controlled along with the navi system.
