  • Alot of bang for your buck - 2004 Acura RSX
    By -

    After researching and test driving an almost endless number of automatic coupe/hatchbacks I found the Acura RSX to be the best bet. It has awesome handling and acceleration extremely well for being a 4cyl. 160hp. Another selling point for me was the high safety and quality ratings that the RSX has. Also, in the long run the RSX has a higher resale value over the Hyundai Tiburon, Toyota Celica and VW Golf & GTI. What the car lacks in back seat room it makes with by having a hugh trunk.

    All around nice balanced car. 1. Power is great 2. Handling is great 3. Doesnt rob you at the gas pump 4. Excellent build quality 5. Very Reliable 6. Great interior/exterior 7. Nice Sound system Youd be hard pressed to find any other car with all those amendities at that price. When I originally test drove the car it didnt do much for me but after the break-in period and learning how to drive...I was like wow!!!

    I love this car it is the first time I bought a new car and it has been a awsome. I might not have the power some people want but it will get up and go. I love the interior feels like a luxury car just without the sticker shock. I love it.

  • my second acura...and not the last - 2004 Acura RSX

    This is my wifes car, but i get to drive it occasionally. Mines a 94 gsr with 211,000 miles so I can compare them well. The rsx is lacking a bit of power up to 6000 rpm, but after that its great. The gas milage is wonderful. We just got back from a trip and averaged 41 mpg over 300 miles. But under normal driving conditions we get around 26-28. The transmission is one of the best id ever driven. My wife reluctantly learned on this car and had no problem catching on. I would definately recommend this car. We have had no problem with it at all. Acura quality at its best.

  • I should of held to the 2005 RSX-S model - 2004 Acura RSX

    I really love the car. Its Fast, sterring is unbleiveable when turning tight corners going about 70 and then downshifting in to the corner very smooth. No problems at this time.

    This car should receive a ten for all categories due to its potential...

  • This car sounds great - 2004 Acura RSX
    By -

    The car really has a pleasant howl above 6500 rpm and the 6-speed makes it a breeze to keep it singing. The interior is high quality and elegant in its simplicity and execution. While not blisteringly fast it is quick enough to be fun and my mileage has been in the 30 mpg range. I found it to be faster and less expensive than a similar cooper-s or celica GT- S. Unlike some I feel the suspension is plenty stiff and responsive, if you want more try the A-spec

  • Awesome Car - 2004 Acura RSX

    I just bought the RSX type S and I have to say my daily commute just got a lot more fun and exciting. Why would anyone pay more money for the 350Z, because the Acura has a much smoother ride and costs less. Ive owned Acuras before and Ive been asking myself "why did I ever stray?"? I need to take time and read the manual and learn about the car, but who can stop driving it? Id definately suggest this car to anyone. Acuras quality and reliability are legendary.
