Used 2003 Acura RSX Consumer Reviews
Acura/Honda's Rule the World!
This car is the best for the under 25K coupe class. Great performance, car is as solid as a vault and you know re- sale value and long-term reliability are a given.
Well worth it
Purchased a couple months ago a Type- S. Fun to Drive, great interior (though center armrest area could be better), hatchback is convienient, and handles very well.

Type-S = Satisfaction
Perfect for highway buzzing and a touch stiff in town on poor roads, (I just choose better routes). With only 6000K it's just broken in but the power comes quicker than it did! We enjoy the sound system, dispite other reviews for sound , you can crank the volume over the engine noise. This one is a keeper.Keep the revs up for maximum pleasure.
Good, but not all that!
The car is well built but as a performance car it falls short. The handling is above average, the shifter is phenomenal, but the power/torque just isn't there. Having nearly an 8000 RPM redline is great if it would just pull strongly to it. The engine revs so freely that it makes you feel like you should be going faster than you are. The ergonomics are great except for the speedometer; it needs to be in 10 MPH increments instead of 20. And how they built a car at this price without a center armrest is beyond me. Overall it's not bad but I should have looked harder at a Mazda 6 or Toyota Celica.
Good car for price
Owned car for approx. 1 month now. Love driving it. Very fun, and more powerful than I originally expected. Don't compare this car to a Porsche or M3 or something silly like that... It's a fun to drive, everyday vehicle that gives great gas mileage, and has fantastic build quality measuring up to much more expensive automobiles.
