      @@gsjourney3054 You have the Special Edition? I woulda loved to have had that thing at the time. My first car was a 2004 Honda Civic LX sedan, & I was bummed to find out my car didn't have Vtec. Those D Series engines ain't too shabby, either. Especially with Vtec. Those coupes with the rear spoilers also look real nice. I always respected how the Special Edition Civics came with tweeters, which are pretty nice. That type of civic came fully loaded with rims, a rear spoiler, amplified sound system, custom radio with a CD player, etc. That car of yours has plenty of potential, don't get me wrong. I always loved the look of those cars, as well.

    Acura RSX was everything the Scion tC wanted to be. Just as the Acura Integra outshined the Toyota Celica.
    After the 2001 Honda Prelude passed away, the Integra merged with it and became much more luxurious and shifted into this CRX-like RSX shape.
    The contemporary 2001-05 Civic Si went back to their hatchback routes instead of the previous 98 Coupe/Sedan shapes. Eventually, the 2007 Honda Civic Si succeeded the Acura RSX. Meanwhile, Accord V6 Coupes did its best to fill the Prelude void.

    • @rubenlay610

    Just for anyone wondering, the RSX is actually stupidly op in SCCA Solo rule autocross. H street class, there's a guy that is usually in the top 5 in our group.

    If you’re going to get an RSX don’t even bother with the base model I had a 2006 base model auto and it was the slowest thing ever. Five months later I bought a 2006 Acura RSX Type S (All Type S’s are manual) and it was the best decision ever. Such a fun little car and can rev up to 8100 as opposed to 6700 in the base model. If you want the real Honda VTEC experience.. get the Type S. It also is significantly faster with at least 50 more horses with a similar k series engine.

      @@tdot7084 Its not that expensive but K's can add up quick. Especially if you want a GOOD kit that will be reliable and that is very well made.. To properly boost a Dc5 from stock, you are looking at like $8-10K.. This includes everything from the fuel system, to the tuning, to all the little labor needed.

    You are missing one of the best reasons to buy one. You keep saying it’s not fast and it’s not by today’s standards but if you want fast you don’t buy a 370z or a sti they are quick but you drop 10k in a type s and you got over 500hp. And you are still sitting less than 20k for the car and the turbo and bolt ons. If you pay 40k for a 370z you or get 350hp. Still not fast just saying

    I got a beautiful '02 Type S in nighthawk black. One of the nicest cars I've driven(I havent driven A LOT of cars so my view may be a bit biased), the feeling of the car on the road is phenomenal and it holds up to this day. Plus the transmission is so clean even after 20 years of driving, it's crazy just how fantastic this car is and is criminally underrated, especially today. I'm looking to add a cold air intake for more power and a front splitter to add some downforce in the front, especially because I have the dope rear wing for it.
