Price Range: $29,810 to $35,350

The 2012 Acura TSX provides tight handling, high-quality appointments, and a sleek appearance at an affordable price. It offers stiff competition to other luxury sedans such as the Audi A4, Buick Regal, and Lexus IS 250.

After receiving multiple updates last year, the luxury midsize TSX coasts into 2012 without any major enhancements. The TSX is available as a sedan or Sport wagon and can be had with either a 201-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder or 280-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 engine. The four-cylinder engine can be mated to either a five-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission, while the V-6 is paired to the automatic and is only available in the sedan. Fuel economy ratings are respectable, especially with the four-cylinder engine at 22 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway (the V-6 receives 19/28-mpg city/highway).

The exterior of the 2012 TSX has a distinct silver upper bar on its grille, and features like xenon headlights, fog lights, side mirrors with integrated turn signals and 17-inch silver alloy wheels as standard equipment (18-inch wheels are optional). Inside, the TSX boasts a host of premium standard features including power-adjustable heated front seats, leather upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, Bluetooth® connectivity, and a moonroof. Both the TSX sedan and Sport Wagon seat five, but the wagon has 31.5 cubic feet of storage space behind the second row and 66.2 cubic feet of volume with the second row folded.

The standard 360-watt, seven-speaker audio system with a sub-woofer is not only powerful, but also features USB/iPod connectivity. An auxiliary input jack and XM Satellite Radio are also standard. Acura’s optional ELS 415-watt, 10-speaker Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound system works with a 3,600-song 15GB hard drive, voice recognition, and an eight-inch sub-woofer, delivers a premium audio experience. The optional hard drive-based navigation system is shown through a high-resolution, eight-inch screen giving you real-time traffic and weather updates.

When it comes to safety, the 2012 Acura TSX provides active head restraints, antilock brakes, side curtain airbags for both rows, frontal and side-impact airbags for the front seats, and an electronic stability control system. A rearview camera is optional.

With a blend of luxury appointments, a plethora of standard features, and a responsive driving experience, the 2012 Acura TSX is a great value.

"...This was my first time buying a new car, and I really didn't know where to start. I used your site to get quotes from dealers near me and compared them to the Market Price. Then, I used the knowledge I got from reading your Secrets book to make sure I didn't pay more than I should. It was so easy! I love my new car!"

These additional manufacturer savings programs can help you get your best deal.*

Some manufacturers also provide first-time buyer, military, and other programs to target specific customer segments.

*Incentive programs are subject to change at any time by the manufacturer.

Secret 1
Consumer Incentives

Zero percent financing, employee discount, cash back, out-the-door price tags...

Most dealers work hard to offer the public competitive prices. These incentives can grab your attention, but they can also obscure the actual terms you're getting on your purchase.

How can you fully understand incentives to get the lowest possible price on your car?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 2
Finance & Insurance

Most state franchise laws prohibit manufacturers from selling cars directly to the public, so the dealer will be your middleman. But in terms of financing and insurance, you can choose a bank or the dealer directly.

How can you determine what's in your best interest?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 3
Additional Costs

Destination charges, taxes, license and title fees, advertising fees... When going to a dealership, you must ask for an explanation of any fee you don't understand. But you need to choose your battles wisely. Your local car dealer may have taken a loss or slim profit along the way, and your fighting over something like a doc fee when the deal is nearly wrapped up may be counterproductive.

In any case, there are many fees and charges in the sale process: some inevitable, others questionable. How do you tell them apart?

Secret 4
Trade-in Value

If you currently own a car, it probably represents profit. The question is, whose profit will it be?

With few exceptions, you'll get the most money for your used car by selling it privately. That's because dealers pay wholesale prices — not retail prices — for used cars, and they sell them at retail.

Your current car's value can be used to lower the price on your new car. However, most people underestimate their used car's value when going to a dealership. How can you maximize your value?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 5
Dealer Holdback

The car manufacturer holds back a fraction of the price of all vehicles the dealership sells. Then, it returns the money to the dealership, usually on a quarterly basis.

Dealer holdback began its life as a safety net that ensured the manufacturers would have a security deposit of sorts if a dealership missed payments, and the dealerships would have money on hand to cover overhead costs when the holdback was returned.

How can you take advantage of dealer holdbacks to get the bottom line price?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 6
Dealer Incentives

Unlike consumer incentives, dealer incentives are factory-to-dealer incentives that reduce the dealer's true cost to buy the vehicle from the factory to below invoice.

Manufacturers offer these incentives on a regional basis to generate sales on specific models. These incentives are sometimes referred to as "spiffs," and they can touch off competition among dealers to move slower-selling stock.

For instance, a dealer incentive may kick in when a certain sales target is reached, with each subsequent sale resulting in a higher factory-to-dealer rebate. How can you benefit from that?
