Default RSX-S or GS-R????

Hey, I'm buying a new car within the next week and I've narrowed my choices down to a RSX-S or a GS-R. I want the RSX-S a bit more then I do the GS-R but I figure that the GS-R is not much slower,still looks good and I could save some dough. Thoughts from owners of either of these cars would be greatly appreciated.

I love my GS-R, but I drool over my friends silver RSX-S more...

Well, to clarify, I like the look of the DC2s more, and I prefer double wishbone to Macphearson struts anyday, but that K20A2 is a KILLER engine with a LOT of potential, and his interior >>>> mine.

In the end, I still have the better sound system :fawk: from the money I saved, and I can outhandle his car any day, BUT his car will tear mine up in the quarter mile, and is a lot more refined and a lot less squeaky

I am going to say GSR...with the $$ you save on it you can put some really decent mods onto the GSR.

I like my RSX-S over the my GSR for a few reasons

6th gear
Better interior
more power

Well, I like a dropped 98+ GS-R w/ ITR Wing better than the look of a stock RSX-S...

But an dropped RSX-S with ITR wing = beautifull.

RSX-S is better in every aspect but the exterior isnt to purty stock. Interior is very nice. Power is as good as a USDM ITR... and its a 6 spd.

I say RSX-S. It's the future of Honda tuning.
