But look how many RSX's are on the road!! They're selling great. In fact I see half a dozen different RSX's over the course of a day...that's just driving to and from work. I'd say half of those are S's too...
I'm not sure a bigger engine would move these off the lot any faster anyway - most RSX owners are buying them for the name (like "ooooo...it's a type s"), not the HP. Lotsa gurls too...mostly for the sexy looks. But every female RSX owner I've met or seen drives base model....

Rep Power: 0 yeah ive seen a good amount of RSX its just someone mentioned they werent selling well but i dont know that for fact. i went to the acura site and there advertising the rsx type s more so it kinda sparked a thought that they might not be selling as well. I went to the acura dealership the other day the rsx type s are beautiful but they seem small as my civic. thats why i kinda hoped they would re-release the prelude as a bad *** machine but heres to dreaming
I sure wish my car was newer

Rep Power: 366 The RSXs aren't selling all that great here in the midwest. I see as many Z06s on the road as I see RSXs.
As for what they'll be doing, I'll believe rumors when Honda announces they're not rumors.

Rep Power: 0 lol my gf drives a RSX...base model! she wanted a 'S but 'rents said "what do you need that power for hMMMM??" gah, and i'm stuck with a 7th gen. yea, know how you feel Novaz3, i feel kinda j00ed because if i waited for about another month or so, i could be driving a '04. and they got rid of the DX! so i wouldn't have one! 
I heard rumours about the Prelude being resurrected in 2006 and I have seen concept sketches of a new light wieght CRX, but will it ever happen? We willl have to just wait and see.

Rep Power: 0 so true lol i drive a civic 2001 dx and i know i wont have it for long, just because i want something faster. The EVO 8 is a beautiful car its fully loaded with all the tasty add ons like turbo,brembo brake kit, all wheel drive but the all wheel drive tranny cant handle to many slips lol its a tough decision if i had the money i would just get a 911 porsche date paris hilton and live in jupiter island florida lol heres to dreaming

Rep Power: 0 I also so an NSX man there like small ferraris, honda is trying to shy away from a culture they help to create. it may not be hondas style but acura/honda created the nsx, prelude and several type r models so it is there style just more so geared for japan. just look were getting the civic type r so it is there style
