Motortrend
Surprise! Another familiar nameplate has gone under the knife for an extreme makeover and emerged having lost the battle of the bulge. Yes, the 2009 Acura TSX swells by a parking space filling three inches in width and 2.4 inches in length. It’s now wider, taller, heavier and way roomier than the original Acura Legend.

At least by building half the body structure out of high-strength steels (up from 39 percent), the curb weight balloons only by about 150 pounds. This happens with almost every model redesign, but this time I’m taking it personally because we just added a present-generation TSX to the family fleet precisely because of its smallness. Why can’t a small luxury car stay small?
