Acura RSX Type s thoughts? Options

[block]

i say they're even. i loved my 00 celica gt-s 6spd as it was great in everyway but i have a kid so i had to get rid of it for the back seats. i drove in a rsx-s 6spd and it was ok. get what you want, it's your choice.

Not bad if you like FWD cars. Even though mine is FWD right now, I am not going to stick with that forever. I will do whatever I can to avoid them. Still though, not a bad run for your money and I do understand they can be pretty mean.

no offence but i hate comments like these. very ignorant. i mean, who cares if they're fwd or rwd. it's a damn car. people have their preference....

Hahaha they're essentially the same (looks wise, the Type R is a Type R after-all). The Integra name was continued in Japan while the USDM's was changed to RSX. Same thing with the TSX. TSX is Accord Euro/JDM spec. CSX (For those of us from Canada) is the JDM Honda Civic.

You'd be surprised to know many many car's named are changed when they cross the sea. Its a pretty extensive list. However if you are interested in that kind of thing, just lurk wikipedia or go to the manufacturer's website. They're not to hard to navigate and most of the car names are in english. It will also give you a good idea of what we in the USDM are missing out on. (Civic Type R Sedan/Hatchback, Toyota Mark X)

if you want somethin as nice but bigger and faster...buy an ep3 like what me and remy have...swap a A2 motor into it with the 6spd...u get more interior space, lighter car, and most of the suspension parts are interchangeable. I was lookin for a RSX when i bought my ep...i took out 3 RSX's...1 type-s and 2 basemodels with the premium package in them, one thing i found, they understeer like hell, especialy in the rain. When the only one i found that looked good got sold, i went home, went and looked at clubrsx.com, and saw every one was talkin about EP3s, didnt know what it was, searched it, found one near my place at a dealership...went and test drove it and forgot about the RSX. More interior space, bigger trunk, small but easy to work in engine bay, comes with a super nice interior, and only 1 really noticeable/common problem with the car *squeaky clutch*.
