Car Shopping

[Black Majik MSP]

Those friends I mentioned with RSX-Ss have all beaten S2000s on the highway (not that I promote that).

While i will admit that the engine is a technological wonder, the automobile is a sum of its parts and that one is bland and uninspired.

Perhaps I am being to hard on it, but when I compare it to the USDM Integra GS-R or R, i find that it is significantly less of a driver's car, more of an overweight luxo mobile. It is sloppy, detached from the exhiliration of speed and cushy.

I HAVE driven one, and i feel that it is too similar to the new SI. Solid, boring and painstakingly average.

Seriously, there are so many good cars out there. There are so many good cars that Honda makes, dont waste time with the RSX.

Besides, you can make anything fast. I know CRXs that run 8s and 9s and that car is not fast stock. Also, I kick the crap out of RSXs in my "stock" MSP. Until I see a USDM RSX-R I will not be impressed. I dont want to buy a car, drop 10k in it and still have a FWD drag Honda... Now if I had an S2000, I would drop 10k on that in a heartbeat

Also, to further my point of cars being the sum of their parts, look at the MSP. Not terribly fast, not terribly anything, but a GREAT car. The RSX is like the spec-v. Good in power, straight line et al. but not much of a car...

I didn't think anything was bland on that car. It handled great and pulled hard all the way to 8,000rpm. It is superior in every way to a GSR.

Wait for the RSX type-R! If it ever comes out here...
But really, consider the SRT-4, unless you like a nice interior finish

...and RSX Type-S is a BLAST to drive, screeming engine at 8000 rpm is great!

one other problem, will you be able to FIND a MSP in your area, seems they're kind of rare right now...

BTW, Hondata increases redline to 8600.
