type r
if your lookin for a nice fast car i would go with the type R. my friend has one and he just put some small upgrades to it and it flys he beats my other friend who has a srt 4 and i have a turbo si and he just kills us every time. plus they dont make the type R any more so its value is gonna be much higer n the long run

The Type R is a slightly better car for racing whereas the RSX is slightly better for luxury and ammenities. Both have huge aftermarkets. However i'd take the RSX because the theft rates on the ITR are so high, one of the main reasons I didn't take the Type R. All 3 of the Type R's in my area were eventually stolen and that trend is pretty much reflected all over the continent.

I would go with an R. I've had both and I prefer the Type R. I sold my S2000 after I drove my wife's R. As far as insurance I guess it depends on where you live. My RSX was around 250, my S2k was 315, and now I pay 215 for two type R's. All of them fully insured.

Integra Type R is really rare and a great car, buit I personally Like the RSX-S, Only becuase the K20 Has the most potential for more HP's for the leas amount of mods. You can get hondata with Kpro, race header, intake, flywheel, exhaust. And you will be able to keep up with an SRT-4 with a couple of mods (ie:Intake, Stage 1 ECU). The K20 jsut has more pontential. But that is jsut me. I also like the look of it more.
