Perhaps this sounds like a weird comparison. But I'm sure there are some people, like me, who are thinking of moving up from an Accord to a TLX for their next car. My current ride is a 2008 Accord EXL navi. It only has 70k miles, relatively new tires, and is still covered by the HondaCare for another year +. But in a year or two I'm likely to get a new car, and the TLX is on my list to consider. Also on my shopping list would be a new Accord (my wife has a 2013 Accord EXL navi that's very nice). The BMW 320i wouldn't really be on my shopping list, even though I've admired this car since I was a kid, just because the image and attitude that goes with a BMW today is not something that fits for me. But I know Acura is hoping that people cross-shop these two cars, and looking at a pricing comparison between a BMW 320i and a base TLX it's clear that the Acura is an impressive value.

It won't surprise anyone that the TLX looks like a good value compared to a Beamer, but what is maybe surprising is that the TLX even seems like a good value when the msrp is compared to an Accord EXL. In my next post I'm going to give what some might consider an over-the-top in details comparison of what you get with a TLX base compared with an Accord EXL for the price. The results surprised me anyway....
