  • my rsx-s - 2004 Acura RSX

    I purchased my RSX-S about a month ago and am very satisfied. Its not only fun to drive, but is very practical and affordable. Acura has a winner here. with more power than the Lexus IS-300 and more stylish than the compact Infinity. It has superb handling and its race inspired seating, you really feel in touch with the road. In a rating of 1-5, I give it a 9.

  • Great car value - 2004 Acura RSX
    By -

    I have had my red 2004 RSX type S for about a year now, and still love this thing. For the daily commute, keep the rpm below 5000 and it is comfortable, refined and very economical, getting me 26-27 mpg (35mpg hwy). On weekends, or when more is needed, press hard and rev into VTEC heaven above 6000rpm and this car will rip out symphonic performance and leave you smiling. You have to work at keeping the rpm high for full effect, and no it wont blow away a Corvette or a Mustang GT, but it will still keep you dipping in for more.

    When i went looking for a car i wanted a dependable, fast performance car and thats what i have gotten with the RSX-S

  • Great Ride - 2004 Acura RSX
    By -

    I looked at cars in this class for six months before making my final decision with the Type S. This is a race car waiting to drive. Im constantly looking for reasons to take this thing down the block. Smooth ride, powerful sound when you start the engine, and all the power you need under the hood. The acceleration will put you back in your fine leather seats.

    Ive had my RSX for almost four months, it is a gorgoeus car and not too expensive. I would urge anyone that is looking in the RSX price range to test drive one.. you will most likely buy one, it has amazing handling. The RSX may seem small, but I managed to move furniture, boxes and clothes with out a problem.

  • Excellent sport hatchback - 2004 Acura RSX
    By -

    Needed a new car for college that would have a useable interior space for more than 2 passengers, and reasonable rear space. The hatchback design gives it a large portion more space and ease over a trunk in a sedan/coupe. Good price when compared to similar cars in this class. The low weight combined with a 4 cylinder engine allows it to have great gas mileage and impressive pickup. Very easy to learn clutch and excellent 6-speed transmission. Fun to drive and highly reliable, would recommend this car to anyone looking for more sport and utility in their daily driving.

  • Very Nice - 2004 Acura RSX

    Ive had my baby for 6 months and so have nothing but praise for it. The only problem Ive had was with the engine light coming on but this was due to me not securing the gas cap tightly. remember it has to click three times...

  • Almost perfect - 2004 Acura RSX
    By -

    Fun to drive, great on gas, and able to hold my luggage too. This is a great car to travel in. We love the interior layout of the car. Although the torque could be better the over all driving is great. This price is right.

  • My Type S - 2004 Acura RSX
    By -

    I just recently purchased this car and though disappointed with the sound the exhaust makes as well as the Bose sound system (sub in spare doesnt sound like a sub at all), I have to say this car is fantastic! Pulls hard in every gear, shift action is better then Porsche, pedals are spaced perfectly apart, 0-60 faster then any car in its class. Also had good dealership experience.

  • 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.
