Wait until the V6 Hyundai comes out and test drive it. This year's is supposed to be a big step.

TSX for Honda build quality, luxurious, sexy interior quality and styling, easy shifting, and better resale value. I've never driven a Subaru Legacy GT, but unless you're going to be driving in the snow or actually taking to the track, all that power and AWD is really not all that useful.

I disagree. I find myself spinning the tires on my Accord on a weekly basis. Unless the TSX has a limited slip (which I don't think it does) I have no reason to believe the same thing won't happen. I also notice that when accelerating on beat up pavement I can feel the front tires losing traction. Just a few reasons why I chose the Legacy.

If you want a Korean Accord clone. I've seen the commercials...something just isn't right with the interior.

That is odd, however; the American Accord is also fairly different than the TSX (or European Accord). I haven't had any problems spinning the tires with my TSX, even though the stock tires on the TSX are mediocre.

Hyundai V6.

For the money you'll save and the 235 HP. But definitely wait till they're out a few months when all the incentives are going. Save even more money.

My Accord is in my sig. Its not a 7th gen...its a 4th gen with an engine that has about the same power as the TSX engine. I've got sticky tires on it and still experience these problems. Additionally you can forget about traction if you get the tires even a little wet. They'll just spin.
