Good entry-level sports car
The good: acceleration, reliability, tight suspension. The bad: audio system, road noise. The ugly: insurance rates. This is a remarkable car. The S- type is a better sports car, but less practical if you live in an urban center. Tall 3rd gear is a lifesaver during rush hour. Its a good car to learn or refine your manual driving skills. Precise is the keyword for a RSX. Because this car is marketed to the 20 something crowd, insurance rates are high (if youre under 25, expect your monthly insurance rate to be half of your car payment). Visit an RSX forum to hunt for a good dealer. Overall, no car comes close the RSX for the price.
Stereo and Sound is The Weak Point
I love driving a car that is uncommon. Was going to get a Civic or an Accord like everyone else, but thought I deserved better. This is a fun car. People check it out at the stop lights. Only 3 minor complaints: Stereo, Armrests, and Seat Comfort could be better.
The Greatest
This is the best car you could own!
The truth
I recently bought an RSX premium. I'm satisfied with the comfort and the sportiness. Leather, heated seats and AC system are really usefull/good. My friends all like it. The car is easy to park. Some friends comment on the lack of base in the sound system, the difficulty of access and the lack of head room in the back seats (oh well). The engine purrs nicely, the AT trans. seems to shift at 3000+rpm meening accel is not that fast. In TripManual it's better but still not amazingly fast off the mark. maybe I'm expacting too much from a 4 cyl. Other than those little things, everything kicks ass in the RSX.
Awesome Car
Smooth And Quite! Worth the money.
