Question...

I'm in the market right now for an RSX Type-S, and funds arent an issue, but I'm just re-thinking the whole RSX thing. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love everything about that car, but I still feel as if I'm gonna be driving a "honda", and after you've spent almost double the cost of a honda, and your still in the same league, it kinda puts me on a downer. I dont wanna regret any purchases I've made, so a little help from u guys would really do me some good.

Thanx

Your right, those stupid honda's they rebadge as Acura NSX's over here just put you in the same category as us civic drivers. Quit whining and go spend your money on a top of the line minivan, they aren't rebadged[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]

There's another car with a 3 letter name that costs the same and beats the pants off an RSX. [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG] And it wasn't rebadged....

by honda you mean civic...try not generalize so much...alot of folks are picky and are gonna flame....

the RSX is nice...seocially since Hondata managed to free up alot of low end torque from them hondata's site with dyno's ...

But if you don't want a honda...the WRX is also a good option..if money isn;t the problem get a bimmer..or a 350Z

As much as I like RSX's i really think they are over priced for what they are. I would definately puchase a WRX.....I may even sell my civic to get one.

I like the RSX, but if I'm going to upgrade cars, I can't justify 'upgrading' into basically the same car with a nicer finish and slightly more powerful engine. But if money is not an object, get an Audi, or a Bimmer. WRX is a nice car, but the last one I sat in (2001) had a crappy feeling interior.

Yeah everybody chill, I understand what he is saying. For the overpriced RSX, he is still going to be driving around a Honda for the same money he could use to get a bunch of other cars. As much as I love the style of the RSX, if money isnt a problem, I would consider the 350Z, huge performer, looks sweet as hell, that would be my pick.
