they've always offered gold painted BBS rims. they arent tacky looking at all depending on the color of the car.

as for comparing the drivetrain to that of the RSX it is quite stupid, they are very much alike and there is very big chance as it is a first model year vehicle that the SI will have some glitches that will show up in the next few months.

for now the RSX is the better buy, for now, at least wait until the SI is in it's second or third MY. honestly the dumbest thing anyone could do is buy a first MY vehicle IMHO... there are always bugs.

And if you "smoked" an RSX that's going to be attributed to the difference in driver skill, the cars are quite evenly matched.
