Used 2004 Acura RSX Consumer Reviews
Great Car
I have had this car for a little over a year and a half and have nothing but nice things to say. I consider this car the poor man's Porsche. I have done minor things to the intake and have put more aggressive tires on it and the car, unbelievably, became even more fun to drive. If you are considering buying on of these do not hesitate. It is just a blast.
RSXELLENCE
I am 17 years old and I am very thankful for having and choosing the RSX as my first car. I feel this car should have a much higher review rate, especially coming from fellow owners. This car has everything for its price and one of the most dominant in the sport compact genere. I love it, everything besides the sub-par Bose sound system.

my rsx
my rsx is so cool, i wish everyone had one. with its stylish seats and powerful engine, it is a great choice for the family man. i can race anybody out there and come out the winner.
The best!
This is the best car I've ever had! It's so fun to drive!
Best car for 2002+
The RSX Type S is fun, sporty, quick and smooth. The luxury feeling you receive just from sitting in this car will sell you instantly. The 6 speed is nice and short.
Excellent car to own and drive
This is the best car I have ever owned. It is the perfect combo of a luxury and sports car. Great perfromance and handling. Very responsived steering.
AcuraRSX1
The best value in its class by far. The car is a solidly built car regardless of . I believe the car is a steal and recommend it to anyone.
this is the best damn car in the world!!
i love this car!!!!!
I love my car
Great pickup off the line Very responsive steering and brakes
What a beautiful, outstanding car
I love my RSX so much. It's very stylish, has good performance, and it makes my friends jealous! The automatic Sportshift thing is fun to play with, but not necessarily useful, at least to me.
unbelievable daily commuter!!
I just purchased Rsx type-s. I am very happy that I got this car. I was almost going to buy the new mazda 3. But the horrible manners of people in Mazda dealer, I switched my mind and went to Acura to get this gorgeous looking vehicle. It looks sporty enough, has pretty quick response engine. Very fun to drive ,also, the audio system is decent. I won't regret that I got this car instead of the unstable Mazda cars
MB's review
this is a terrific automobile.
EXCELLENT..
excellent car..i was looking into alarms..anybody has suggestion of which is the best active alarm..since acura dealer told me they take it somewhere else to install it..
You should have one
This is a great care... I looked at the Cooper and New VW Beetle, however was not sold on their long term questionable performance. I've had three other Honda's and never had a problem. So once I drove the 2004 RSX there was not going back. Great get up and go. Feels great to ride in, excellent sound system and all the standard features for the leather-auto was the best of all, with CD, power windows, moon roof, etc Great handling. Its just the best in class.
Hot little number
Coming from driving an SUV, this unit moves and weaves through traffic like a slot car. I love this thing. Great colour (Pearl White), awsome sound! (you may disagree), 200hp and still fuel efficient. I'm relatively new to the manual transmission, but from what i've experienced from test drives; this 6 speed transmission is slick, definitive (*cough* WRX *cough*), crisp, and most importantly...good fun.
RSX type S
When i went looking for a car i wanted a dependable, fast performance car and thats what i have gotten with the RSX-S
Awesome car
Very good car. Amazing handling, very good acceleration for the price and very nice design. Visibility is a bit limited as with most sport coupes. BAD sound system. Horrible radio reception and not very good sound quality overall even with CDs.
2004 RSX
I've had my 2004 RSX for 2 years now and I love it! I have had several other sports cars in the past, the last being a mustang. This car is fast, but still managers to be practical, compfortable, reliable, and fuel efficient. It also has the more prestige name of acura with many luxury features, but was suprisingly affordable. definately best in class
review on RSX
I love the car!
Acura RSX---Loving it
The car has excellent handling capabilitites, superb gas mileage and is an all around great car to drive. I had a Volkswagen Beetle before this car and I must say that this car is quantum leaps ahead of the beetle.
Type-S
I have the vehicle for over a year now and its the best sports coupe that I have ever hade...VERY FUN to drive and very modifyable.
The Most Fun Car for 20K
This car is great buy and an even better value. It performs well and is extremly fun to drive.
Best car for the money
I love my Acura RSX !!! I have owned it for about 2 years now and have driven 45k miles with no problems whatsoever. It has good pick up at higher RPM's but lacks torque. The leather interior is much nicer than the standard cloth. With the automatic climate control and the leather seats and my new navigation system (going to be installed this week) this car feels like a luxury vehicle and I only paid 20k for it. Stock stereo system isn't the greatest but car is definitely efficient and fun to drive.
outstanding
i love this car
A great car
I love my RSX!!! It is cute and has a lot of get up and go. The only thing I would change is the 125mph cut off...not that I would know = )
love my car!
had a honda accord lx for 11 years. It now has over 300,000on (my niece drives it). Bought a mazda millenium,hated it! traded it in for rsx type s. love my car. it handles great, good gas and most of all it's a lot of fun to drive.
Acura
Great Car! The interior as well as the exterior is great! It's fun to drive!
5300 rpm 2nd phase.
I've just purchased my 2004 Nighthawk Black Pearl RSX Type-S. Coming from sports car(Mitsu 3000GT), this car serves me very well. I love the tight cornering ability, 6sp manual, 200hp i- Vtec...etc. Just as what my title of this colume, I smile when I see my rev meter's reaching 5300rpm because I'm pulling harder than ever!
RSX Type S
excellent car for the $, and a performance car with useability and versatility
Good car, bad people
I have never been to such horrible dealerships in my life. The people are just horrible, they don't care about the customer, they are willing to say just about anything just to be able to deny (warranty on) your claim on problems and issues with the car. The warranty as far as I'm concerned is completely irrevelent, since they don't car to abide by it. If you want a car without a warranty, this is the car. But you might as well buy it used for that matter.
Great buy
Fun to drive. Good substitute for my Corvette as a commuting car. Great performance.
Luxury Economy Car
I have the Base RSX Automatic. I love the car! I have had the car about 2 weeks now, and I have had no problems driving it. I can take it through fast turns, and it stops on a dime. The A/C is automatic everything, so you name the temp. and it does the rest. It's got really cool mirror defoggers and its comfortable to ride in. I had the integra before, and this car really is better then ever.
I luv my car!
Had a '93 integra 2 yrs. ago, loved it, crashed it, got a new eclipse,wanted an acura but got sucked into the 'triple zero' deal, loved it, crashed it (neither accident my fault, my luck sucks!), finally got a '02 RSX, silver, high spoiler, the works. Only complaint, the stereo could be louder, and road noise is annoying(but I knew that and it didn't deter me. Herb Chambers sucks at cust. service, never gets back to you when they say, (i had some issues and it took months to resolve) once they had my money (19950.00 CASH) they don't wanna know you. But I love my car!
RSX type s
well so far, as this car being my first manual car to drive(and the first car i've ever owned), It has been good to me so far(1500 mi). If you have experience in shifting, the transmission is smooth(except 2nd gear, see below). it also has impressive handling as well. The reliability is, obviously, well-known to be the best out there. the engine was built strong and tough.
THIS IS THE BEST CAR EVER!!!!!
yo this is the car of any persons dream the power and handeling behind this car is unlike no other. this is the perfect car sexy, stylish, sleek. i love driving it. and after i did everything to it i get all the attention everywhere i go. girls love it!
Best Integra Yet
I am very satisfied with the nest generation Integra. The Type S RSX is a real quick and snappy car the combines top notch performance with leather interior, 7 Bose surround sound speakers, CD player and a 6 speed manual tansmission.You have to love a car that delivers so mucth.
SLICK!
This is my first Acura and I'm hooked! The RSX-S is well-built and has a lot of power, especially on the highway when passing. It's not as quick off the line as I had hoped, but it is still a contender. Nighthawk Black is hot to look at-- I have received lots of compliments on it. Handling is excellent. The red dash lights at night are awesome!
RSX-S vs EVO vs WRX
Great and awesome car all around. Perfect between performance and drivability. Has potential to be a pretty fast car. But not as much potential compared to WRX or Evo. This is not the car if you want to be extremely fast. This car is a balance between performance and luxury. Interior is very nice. Looks are awesome compared to WRX. This car will be hard to compete with cars like Evo and WRX STi since this car is afterall FWD. Overall I love this car and is a great all around vehicle. Bose system is kind of lacking. But other than that I have no real complaints. Perfect balance between performance and drivability.
Pretty Basic
Fun car to drive, but pretty basic features. Car lacks outside temperature display, lighted visor mirrors, stereo controls on steering wheel, good interior lighting and trip odometer. EXTREMELY NOISY AND BUMPY ON HIGHWAYS - NOT A CAR FOR LONG DRIVES. Tires that come with the car are noisy and have fair traction.
Very Happy
This was the best purchase I ever made. I love this car. I haggled over price to the point of obnoxiousness but I got what I wanted. The car is perfect.
LOVE IT
I just got this car in May and I love it. It's a good size but I must admit it is tight in the back. I wouldn't recommend it as a family car. This is car is more for 2 people not 4 it's way too tight.
I love my car
There is no doubt in my mind that I made a good choice with this vehicle. I love to drive and everyone time I get into the vehicle, I am overcome with joy. It is a lot of fun and it looks awesome.
Great car!
I am very happy with my RSX. It represents a great combination of performance, comfort and reliability. It is very happy pottering around town but also gives an exciting drive if you open it up and push the revs up near the 8000 limit. The only slight citicism I have is that it does feel a bit "front-end heavy" and has the typical front-wheel drive understeer that was less apparent in the Honda Prelude I had before. Having said that the manual six-speed transmission is excellent and the steering is pin-sharp with good road feel. Overall definitely a winner and I have no regrets.
Fun to drive
I have thoroughly enjoyed this car and everything about it. I have not had any mechanical problems, just standard maintence like oil changes and rotating and balancing the tires. I have found that it is easy to drive, and so has everyone else who has driven it. It is a great car.
First Step Up
When the RSX first came out I was peaked. I looked and pondered as to paying 20K+ for something not much different than my Civic. When I got the oppourtunity, I steped up and haven't been one bit dissapointed. I did not expect Space Shuttle Gadgetry and Ferrari performance but what the car really had to offer is a Real Bang for the buck. I don't regret it one bit.
Love it!
I switched from a 2000 Honda Accord to a 2003 RSX and I love it! This car is sporty and fun to drive. It took a bit of getting used to since the suspension is pretty stiff and bumps in the road are definitely felt. The louder engine took some getting used to as well, but it is no problem! All in all, I love it!
fun car
I love this little car. It is fun to drive! I drive it, my teenage daughter loves to drive it and all her friends want one. I hiighly reccomend this for a fun, sporty, fuel efficient car!
My Acura Rsx
the car is ok, but its awsome now that i have molded on a body kit,cold air intake system, radio upgrade,18" wheels & tires,projection headlights,, and much much more to come.
RSX Review
Excellent overall design and comfort. Dealer was the best I've ever dealt with. Fun and exciting to drive. Engine preforms like cars costing 2 times the purchase price. Six gear transmission is tight and smooth with little excessive play. A little more of a consol would be nice but the interior is very attractive.
Sporty RSX type-s
This Rsx is the nicest acura sports car i have divin and since i got my license i have always had at least one acura. Acura really out did itself with this one.
