When I first saw a TSX wagon a few years back I was amazed from the look of it. Now I have a TSX sportwagon of my own and it's very nice, good trunk space and excitingly quick, of course it's not a high performance luxury vehicle but the paddle shifters are neat to use. The only problem I have is the side window molding trim wearing off, it's hard trying to find one that fits since most moldings only fit on the sedan trims. Nonetheless, it's my daily to work and I hope to add some wheels and window tints.

I saw my first TSX wagon back in 2011 coming over a bridge, the grill and light design (whole front end) impressed the hell out of me!

I came here to ask the same question about the rear door beltline mouldings. The rubber is deteriorating so bad. Did you find any? There used to be an eBay seller who showed a picture of the wagon, but the strips themselves were for the sedan. Disappointing!

I picked up a set of these wheels for my 2012 wagon. Question, did you just swap over your TMPS sensors to the Accord wheels? Will TPMS system lights stay off after doing so? Thanks.

Amazing work on the wagon, Richy! I have a 2011 in that same dark anthracite mettalic. It's been one of my favorite cars I've ever owned. Hey, you're inspiiring me to clay bar and ceramic coat it, once it's not 107 here in TX. Like another commentor, I'm looking for those rear door beltline mouldings. Any suggestions?

Is this a slow car? I know it handles well. But 170 lb-ft torque isn't much. Saab 9-3 wagon, Volvo V50 T5 and V70 all have north of 220hp and 220 torque.
@richycontreras2 ай бұрын
Yes they’re slow. It’s a good economical daily with some space and that Honda reliability. I got it for that purpose. I have my other cars that are fast for fun and drifting.
@haydenpennington5 ай бұрын
is there any gaps between the skirt and the rocker panel? where you stuck the magnet on the in skirt, my skirts won’t stay stuck onto the car and wanted to see how they have held up for you, i used double sided tape and they stay stuck on just that weird beveled top part of the skirt won’t stay stuck

The side skirts came with the car when I bought it but I believe you can find most of the exterior pieces on MV tuning website if you Google them. It’s on Airlift 3P air ride kit and 19” Honda accord touring wheels. Other than that there’s not much to this car. Appreciate you watching!
