RSX type-S? or TSX with 6speed?

i probably gonna end up turbo it and mod it.

tsx is 3,250 more but it have
dual climate control
power seat
heated seat
HID (the only must have, because i got poor night vision)
17 rims
home link system
bigger sound system
Traction control
24lb more tq

 

TSX! :thumbup: you get many more features for your money, and I can't wait to see the aftermarket that pops up around this thing. It's a sharp car to start with, I can't imagine what some minor mods could do for it.

 

both car is a good car
i orginal planned to get the rsx, do the suspensions and rims, then turbo it, after that build the internal to turbo it even more. better sound system going to go in and also a on board computer for AEM EMS, mp3s, dvd, and navi.

but its hard to decided because i went to the dealership today they have a silver TSX one in the showroom, also a black on the lot, i like the feel of the tsx when i sat in it very nice, i pop the hood to check it out...not as roomy in the engine bay and the hood alone is pretty heavy.. but i like the overall body style and really like the interior

any comment or reason why you vote that way be cool too...thanks!

 

those dont mean jack

these are both simple to install in the RSX for about $600 total i think?

honda = no torque

who cares?

these aer the only real differences, traction control is no big deal for performance driving, and the extra torque isn't all that helpful considering the weight difference. if you are looking straight for performance, why bother with the more luxurious TSX?

and if i were you and looking to turbo/mod the TSX, i'd just buy the redesigned 04 WRX, much, much better deal for the money, both the RSX/TSX are underpowered for their classes but at least the RSX is the quickest 2-door for under $25k...

 

yeah if you have 24K to spend then definately the face-lifted WRX.

 

:werd:

However, it really depends on wether you want performance or comfort. I would personally go for the TSX, since I have been spoiled by big cars

Remember that the TSX is the "next step up" from the RSX, even though the RSX is :thumbup:

 

dont really like the styling of the wrx...
im leaning toward the rsx right now..it just look sexy lower with a nice body kit...since im young i want a more sporty lookin car...

 

I just went through that dilema, but not really. :fawk: I wanted something with complete balls, so went with the WRX, but...

Of the two cars (RSX and TSX), I'd choose the TSX, simply because I like it's looks better. But it's personal preference.

Kion: The TSX has damn near the torque a BMW 325i has, which it competes with. Don't be ignorant.

 

LOL, bish dont you use that tone of voice with me! haha

the dood wants a turbo 4-door, for the price of a turbo TSX you could have a KILLER WRX or an EVO8, both of which would be far better choices

 

Who needs Traction Control on a FWD?
