i guess it all depends on the condition of the car, how much you can spend and what you want the end result to be; all of these cars can be made to be very high performance. the integras are an older car and may be in worse shape and possibly abused more thereby needing more TLC than the RSX. i owned an integra type r back in 02 and put about $2000 in mods and had a car that would top out at 155 and corner like a race car

Neither, honestly. But between the two, depending on price/condition, the 'Teg.Why?I'm guessing you're referring to a newer type S, at least something in the past coupla years. The RSX is being killed off by Honda/Acura. (Being real about it, that means the retail value in the majority of cases drops off on models after they're retired. Im 30, work for a finance co., so I take things like that into consideration, because while you may not care to get what you want... being smart about it allows you to spend your money WISELY and get the best bang-for-the-buck in the long term.)An older 'Teg will have at least have a larger percentage of the value; again, based upon pricing, condition.Your best bet is a 8th gen Civic Si. Resale value long term, plus mad fun value. All this is coming from a previous MAD Honda hater, since I got into imports (Mitsu/Toyota primarily) over 17 years ago. The 06+ Honda styling just floored me, everyone thought I was on meth because it was a one day turnaround as soon as I laid eyes on one in person.. not to mention drive.You won't be dissapointed.

Type R would outperform the others and is more rare, insurance would be higher and you would have to secure it drastically because they get stolen left and right.
