2008 Acura CSX base review from North America
"In theory it should be a great car, but was not very well executed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The cruise control occasionally shuts off when I depress the "set" button. Instead of setting the speed, the system shuts off.
Stitching in the passenger side leather seat is coming out.
General comments?
Handling is better than I had anticipated.
Feels faster than only 155 hp, probably due to gearing.
Shifting is not very smooth.
Suspension is stiff and excellent, however, some people may find it too uncomfortable.
Driver's area is very cramped, and I'm only 5'7" and 120 lbs.
Seats are hands down the most uncomfortable I've ever sat in.
Steering wheel is nice and small.
