it depends on who is driving it and what kind of car you are looking for, but i personally like the rsx type s. nice design and performance. only problem would be back seat leg room/space. check out the civic si, it is in the same class as the rsx

not particularly. Theyre far too expensive for their level of performance (or lack thereof), and theyre not anything special in terms of luxury or refinement.

YES. I own one and it was one of the best decisions ive made. It's a honda, so its going to be relaible and last forever. It basicaly is a honda civic si and for almost the same price. Acura has discontinued the RSX though, so there is no model year 2007 rsx, the last made was 2006. Also, sure its not the best bang for buck performance wise, but its not a turbo so what can u expect, for an NA 2.0L i-vtec engine, 200hp is damn good. If u havent heard vtec, u havend lived yet.

Yes. I hate Honda's and Acura's, But the RSX typeS is a very nice looking car. Sporting a K20 VTEC engine. This is a very fast car with the 6 speed manual. There are thousands of upgrades available on the aftermarket. The only downside in my opinion is the price, it is very expensive for what you get.

I had a low 13 second all motor integra for a while and drove a Type-S durring that time. I was rather impressed with the S. My friend has an integra type-r and the rsx-s would keep up with it just fine. Its a great little sports compact. I would get one for my girl as they are reliable and fun.

Yes, fun to drive, good mileage, quality, but damn expensive to insure.

Why do people think VTEC is some kind of engineering masterpiece? There are PLENTY of variations of the same technology in various car makes. The surge isn't even that noticable. This coming from a person who has driven the RSX, S2K, and rode in a NSX. There is nothing holier than thou about VTEC (which was designed for economical purposes) "If u havent heard vtec, u havend lived yet" LMAO!Drive a car that is actually fast, and you will know the feeling and sound of true performance. Furthermore, I think the RSX-S is a nice car, but way overpriced. Styling is a little off for my taste, but they're 'sporty' little buggers.
