  • Fun, fun, fun. - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    Fun to drive, the six speed shifter can get tiring if you are not into shifting all the time. Back seat space is pretty tight, if you have friends over 58" tall have them seat up front. Great fuel economy for such a fast car. Acura build means it still feels like new. No problems with it so far.

  • Excellent Used Car! - 2002 Acura RSX

    I just purchased a used RSX from a local dealership and I love it. It is an 02 with 40,000 mi, silver w/ black leather. I originaly had my heart set on the Type S, however, they are hard to find thus they demand top dollar. This car is such a good value. The car looks and drives like new. Plus I got a great deal, $13,200 + tax.

  • Excellent Integra Replacement - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    Ive just completed the break-in period on my RSX Type-S and so far I am extremely pleased with my purchase. After test-driving the Celica GTS, the Nissan Spec V , the Subaru WRX and the Hyundai Tiburon (the VW GTI just looked too girly) I felt that the Acura offered the most bang for my buck. I preferred the body styling of the Celica and was impressed by the Subarus stat sheet, but neither of those cars married their performance with such a livable package as the RSX. I almost bought the Spec V (so much vroom, so little money) but I opted to pay a bit more for a better all around car, and now Im very happy that I did.

  • I LOVE THE RSX-S! - 2002 Acura RSX

    Theres nothing like the feel of i-VTEC roaring in your ears as you down shift into gears. The car has great handling and unbelievable power for a 4 cylinder engine thats naturally aspirated. Hondas engineering prides in their normally aspirated engines. Till the day I cant put my hands on a steering wheel, Ill be behind the wheel of a Honda.

    So far, so good...I purchased this car used and have had a blast with it. Everywhere I research, I hear nothing but good about this car. This is my first 6-speed and Im lovin every minute of it. The stereo kicks, teenagers gawk in awe, and not everyone has one like, say, a civic. Its quiet and reserved when I want it to be and screaming hellfire when I dont.

    Great car!

  • Better than a GSR - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    I was planning on buying an older Integra GSR and had driven many of them. I thought the RSX was out of my price range but decided to test drive it anyway. After just a 10 minute test drive I had totally changed my mind. The extra money was worth to spend. The RSX-type S handles better, goes faster, and has its own unique interior compared to the Integra. Taking this car on back roads is the most thrilling ride. It rides like rails around those sharp turns and with the new seats for the RSX you stay right in your seat. Its like it hugs you in your seat. The power is incredible and I love the sound of hitting that V-Tec. For the money you pay for this car its definitely worth every cent!

    My appreciation for this car just increases as the miles rack up. Little things you dont notice become obvious after sitting or driving in other cars.

  • The Best Car on the Market - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    what can i say, this is just awsome car fun, sporty, comfortable, and the gas milage is great. You would be a fool to buy anything else in its class. This car is the gold standard for sport coupes.

  • Bas efits me fine. - 2002 Acura RSX
    By -

    I wanted a fn commuter, and looked at both the RSX and the WRX. The Acura RSX just bles the doors off of the WRX in the comfort and bang for your buck deptartment for me. The base model does not have th get up and go of the Type-s, but I hae to say it has plenty enough power to get me into trouble. If you want a fun commuter that you can rely on go Acura RSX
