  • Excellent car for the money - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    I just bought my 5 speed Acura last week in desert silver metallic for $10,300 w/42,000 miles on it. For being six years old this car is very stylish. I am a 20 year old just out of college. I needed a car for under $11,000 that looked good and got good gas mileage. The moment I drove the Acura I knew it was it. I was previously looking at wrxs and eclipses but this beats them both as far as the money to quality ratio is concerned. One word EXCELLENT!

  • Great car - In love with it - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    I bought this car in 2002. This car has been my first sports car right from the dealership. I loved it on the first day and still have admiration for it. Car has cute reddish dash board thats eye pleasing. Secondly car has been extremely reliable. The car currently has 93000k miles and only changes I have done is brake jobs, tires, emission issue. At 93000 car still feels like new with same amount of acceleration as it was new.

  • Great car, fun to drive. - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    Its a sharp looking car, with a sporty feel to the drive, great acceleration. Nice standard features like moonroof, sport seats, short throw stick shift, auto ac fan speed throttling, side airbags.. Lots of fun to drive it around. If you get it, get used to people in Civics challenging you to race all the time!

  • After 130,000 miles - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    I have more than 130,000 miles on this car. I lowered my car with aftermarket coilover. All the problems I got are associated with the suspension. Other than that I had zero problem. Im getting 29-30 mpg on 80% hwy and 20%city. I love the fact that this car looks like a coupe but its a hatchback. The hatchback provides so much utilities, youll be surprised. One time I picked up a 52" LCD TV and the store employee said no way I can load it to my car but I did. There is no other car that provides so much fun, utilities and 30 mpg.

    Perfect for me.

  • awesome car for awesome price - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    The rsx type-s is an awesome car! I just got one and it is just as good, if not better, than what everyone says. The car is an absolute thrill to drive, and everyone just looks at the car. It has a demanding presence, and you feel really confident driving it. Its comfortable and fast. Its also a lot roomier than the celica. Its a better car than the celica in every way.

  • Still a big WOW! - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    This car is so much fun to drive I keep catching my self smiling as I drive down the road (especially the twisty ones). I also love the fact all the tricked out kids look at me in awe.

  • Awesome ride - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    I bought the RSX about a week ago and I am very shocked. The car accelerates fast but yet I get 35 mpg. It takes awhile to get use of the firm seats. The car turns very well and stops on a dime. I love the red dashboard lights.

  • Heres the skinny... - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    Excellent overall. I choose the base model since the difference in performance was was not of great importance to me (.7 sec faster for type-s 0-60 and 1/4 mile) Handling is particularly admirable. I had a 3- series BMW before this.. and this car handles every bit as good. If you want to smoke people while drag racing, get a WRX. If you want a classy car at a great price, the RSX is fantastic. Great value for the dollar.
