Default New TypeS

Well we traded in our 2002 Arctic Blue RSXTypeS for a 2004 Milano Red RSXTypeS. We were coming to the end of our lease and were able to move into the new one with a slightly smaller payment.:thumbup:

Pictures will be forthcoming in the near future.

BTW Dealer put my Kosei K1's and Goodyear EAGLE F1 GS-D3's and swapped out the intake for my AEM SRI no problems.:goodjob:
I let them put the new stock rims and tires on our ABP RSXTypeS since I have winter tires mounted on the old stock rims and didn't want to have to remove them and put them on the new rims and rebalance everything.

Besides getting a 'new' car, why'd you trade your S for another S? Seems I might've traded the S for a Z.

Need space for a 90-100# White German Shepherd to ride in. We were also interested in the S2000 but the same applies. We had thought about the G35 but it just didn't grab us enough to spend the extra money. The other choice was the RX-8 but it's performance didn't spank the RSX by 10K either. Mazda dealer didn't want to deal with our lease, told us to take the car back to a Honda or Acura dealer also.:down: If he had worked with us it would have been a go. Lease price would have been the same. They had some big incentives there, but they wouldn't take in a lease from another company.

Congrats on the new RSX-S!

I'm in the same boat as you as far as needing a back seat for a dog (though mines a basset hound). I was really digging the RX-8 a few years back when I first heard about it, but once I saw pics of the interior back seat I knew it really wouldn't work with my dog since the center armrest console extends all the way back across the back seats. At least with the RSX's (cheesy) plasic tray in the middle of the backseat I can just put down a thick blanket...

Very nice OLDMAN. I love your new color choice. The milano red is definately one of the nicest colors for the RSX..

Good luck hopefully everything goes as smooth with your new one as the old.

Very nice.... I like the whiteness of the rims and how it goes with the redness of the RSX. Is that your dad in the pic?

I guess the OEM spoiler was an option on the -S. All the -S' i've seen at the dealer have a spoiler. That's pretty much how I tell them apart when I drive by.
