These two models aren't really related, although the sporty temperament they shared reminds us how much the brand has lost of its delinquent streak over the years. The RSX coupe and the first TSX sedan were part of a philosophy more focused on thrills than later iterations. With the arrival of the second-generation TSX sedan in 2009, the car became more sophisticated, while the RSX coupe didn't last long.
