The TSX's absence of Type S performance leaves enthusiasts to debate its potential success versus its addition necessity.

During its entire production period the Acura TSX did not benefit from a high-performance Type S model because its Acura siblings received such variants. Enthusiasts continue to argue both for and against the concept of the TSX Type S after its absence from the lineup. A Type S model for the TSX would have boosted its sporty reputation by delivering extra power and handling precision plus distinctive aggressive styling to stand up against European sport sedans. The TL Type S success serves as proof for market demand for similar vehicles. Criticizers debate if creating a Type S model would have resulted in decreased sales of other Acura models yet could not determine if enough customers would have supported its development. This subject generates analysis about Acura's branding strategy while examining how luxury manufacturers choose which models receive performance enhancements.

Definitely a missed opportunity. A TSX Type S would have given Acura its own BMW 3-Series and Audi A4 competitor. The introduction of this model would have bolstered Acura's portfolio with much-needed performance reputation.

Unnecessary addition. Despite the regular TSX's solid performance Acura users seeking more power could choose the TL Type S. A TSX Type S would have complicated Acura's vehicle lineup.

Missed opportunity for sure. The TSX with TL Type S powerplant along with stiffer suspension elements and bold bodywork would represent a real missed opportunity. It could've been a legend.

The idea sounds great although it would likely not make financial sense. A Type S version would have deepened the TSX's niche market position.

They should've done it. The fundamental sports sedan structure of the TSX had great potential which the Type S version could have maximized. The TSX Type S model could have prevented the discontinuation of the original vehicle.

Unnecessary. Acura planned the TSX to serve as their lineup's practical and efficient choice. A Type S version would have contradicted the model's intended positioning as the sensible choice.

A lost chance exists in this decision but I understand their reasoning. Although the concept sounded fantastic the release would have caused significant overlap with the TL.

While it was a lost chance for this model to shine brighter the company made the right decision in avoiding a full Type S release. A sport package containing suspension enhancements together with a minimal increase in power output would have been ideal. That configuration would have reached the perfect performance point
