Funnest Car I've ever driven!

I LOVE this car! At first I was nervous about spending $25K on a car, but man it was worth every penny. The type S has such a "rich" feeling about it and the driving experience is unbeatable. I love having so much speed and power. I recommend this car to everyone I know looking for a new car!

Loved it

Comfortable and well designed interior (except for cupholder placement in front of shifter, though I've seen a lot worse). Beautiful inside/out. Had problem with shifting into 2nd, and everytime I had the dealer fix it the problem moved up a gear. Gave up when it got to 4th as ratios were tall enough it was rarely a problem anymore. Fairly neutral handling but beefened up rear sway bar made it better. Cold air intake helped power immensely for cheap, and engine torque dampener helped with traction. Good quality of materials and fit/finish except for the vinyl thigh support for seats. Loved the hatch - a very useful and fun car!

Nice ride for the money

Bought the Type S. Had the car for almost 2 years now, put about 24 thousand miles on it and never had a problem so far(knock on wood). The car has a tight stick, tight steering, and great acceleration. I would recommend this car to anyone who wants an affordable quick coupe with some style but if your looking for something roomier check out the Mazda 6 but its still no Acura. Plenty of room for a single guy or girl.

Great Little Car

The RSX is a great little car. I've had mine for over 5 years now & have had no problems what so ever. You just can't beat Honda build quality & reliability. The K20 may be the best engine Honda has ever built. It revs effortlessly to 8000 rpm & is highly tunable. The shifter is top notch & the car gives the driver great feedback. Tons of fun to drive
