BY KEITH GRIFFIN

It’s been an embarrassment of riches lately when it comes to near-luxury sedans. In the past month I’ve driven three of the best: the 2008 Saab 9-3, the 2009 Audi A4, and the 2009 Acura TSX. By the time this is published I will have also driven the Turbo X, Saab’s souped-up version of the 9- 3 with all-wheel drive. I’ve been less than effusive lately with my praise of vehicles, but not so with the Acura TSX. Without sounding like too much of a Acura flack, I have to say the Japanese manufacturer has pret- ty much nailed it with the TSX, which some refer to as the European Honda Accord. The previous generation TSX left me underwhelmed. It was tight inside (even in my thinner days) and had little appeal to me. It almost bored me to drive it and I have recollections of a six-speed manual transmission that was almost counter-intuitive.
