Yup. That's right. The new 2005 RSX is at the dealerships.

I saw a VBP one on my way home last night. Couldn't get my camera out quick enough in traffic to grab a snapshot. Only saw the front end. Wow, it's so much sexier than the 2k2-2k4 ones. I'm really loving the facelift that they gave them. I'll see if I can get to the dealership and snap a few pics this weekend, barring a hurricane.

Bump in hp is nice, and new sides & rear are nice, fronts ok...but they screwed up changing the headlights IMO and the new tails are plain ugly.

edit...best thing about it is definetly the standard 17's on the S. New base model 16" rims are fugly, IMO.

yeah, the headlights werent too impressive. but the tails are ok, i guess its good for the altezza fans who dont wanna put up with dot approved lights. i seen the orange one at the dealer ship few weeks ago, it looks real sleek and more sporty. i like the body changes, but not the lights. i always liked the blacked out headlights from the eariler models.

All I know is that I'd take a Type S in a second. I've wanted an RSX since they came out. They are way better looking than Integras. Plus the S is amazingly quick for the price of the car, yet it's still out of my range. If any one is selling an S around the DFW area PM me hahaha.

Is this what it looks like in person? If it is, it looks like Acura is going for the Accord look...

A few arrived at the dealership here, but one of the salesmen told me they aren't selling the 05's until November. Although, the guy that owns the 05 below new the gm at the dealership and was able to purchase one early. He brought it to an RSX meet we had on Labor Day.

Should have kept the old headlights, but gone w. the new tails, I like the rear-end more now. For some reason I think of an RSX humping an Accord coupe and *plap* out comes that thing.
