Well considering I drive a 5th gen EX with an H22, the RSX-S isn't exactly bare boned and I'm used to high revving anyway. If drove a 6th gen V6 I would probably agree. For me civics are too bare boned though.

I disagree my cousins boyfriend has an RSX and I have driven it before. And although on the smallish side in terms of the size of the overall car. The drivers side is just right and a little more. (Im 6'1) But compare to the new accord the 03 is definitely much bigger.

and on a side note, if you are looking for aftermarkets beside the wheels and stereo system you are better waiting for the best product the fits your style/preference. But it does feel like the rear is missing something like the spoiler, still I'd still wait.

"I used to own an RSX."

What happen? Sold it?

The RSX looks so good with the Air Force body kit. The only problem is the fitting. Get the right mechanice to put it for you and BAM, nice looking RSX right their.

Do a search, I had a big thread asking the opinions of people in here about what I should do...I couldn't keep up on payments.

The only kit I like on the RSX is the OEM one. I was just telling you I had an RSX so I didn't sound like I was talking out of my ass.

I apologize if it sounded kind a wrong to you but from what you said "I used to own an RSX" implys to me something happened.

And the search under what section is that...RSX, accord?

Thanks everyone. I'm planning to put on the invisible bra to protect the bumper and part of the hood since i already got a small rock chip which pissed me off. The brand name is called Xpel and its kinda pricey. But its cheaper than getting it repainted. Go to www.xpel.com to check it out. If anyone heard about the product please let me know.
