This 2006 Acura TSX is the first stick shift car to be featured on Race To the Bottom! But does having a manual transmission always mean the car is better? Or is this a case of expectations sabotaging reality? It's a departure from the Regular Car Reviews norm, as Roman tackles a six-speed Acura TSX that is really just an upmarket Honda Accord. This one is straight-up badge-swapped to look like one! But will it end up in the Top 5 or will it take the lead in the Race to the Bottom?
