Overview & Reviews
Other than a new color, Redondo Red Pearl, there are no changes to the RSX in its sophomore year. Available from the dealer, however, is a new "Factory Performance" package that adds high-performance suspension components, better brakes, larger wheels and tires and a body kit.
- High-revving Type-S engine, plenty of standard equipment, nimble handling.
- Modest torque output, tight rear-seat headroom.

I love this car! - 2003 Acura RSX
By Truckondo - July 13 - 2:00 amI got the car a couple of months ago and Im still never tired of driving it. I almost got the auto because I didnt know how to drive a stick. Im glad I made the effort to learn because once you go manual, you never want to go back. I seem to get a lot of "lookers" around my car too. Freeway on-ramp are so much fun now!

Da Best Car There Is - 2003 Acura RSX
By kekau - July 13 - 2:00 amThis car offers luxury and comfort right from behind the same company that brought us the Acura Integra. Its sporty look combined with its performance offers more than meets the eye. The Acura RSX is trully one a kind car that should be a part of every adventurers repetoire.

Great Ride - 2003 Acura RSX
By Steve H - July 11 - 2:00 amI upgraded from an Integra GSR to this baby in March, and Im amazed at the improvement from the Teg to this car. This car has just about everything I wanted, from a nice interior to an engine that wailed like a banshee. (Gotta love that 8000 rpm redline combined with i-vtec). This car also crushes most of its competition performance wise...Toyota, Mitsu, VW and Hyundais competition for this car is chopped liver as far as Im concerned. And while Subarus WRX is slightly faster, step into the interior or look at it from outside and ask yourself if you really want to be seen in that car.

fun to drive - 2003 Acura RSX
By drvr77 - July 7 - 2:00 amthis car is extremely fun to drive. good quality interior, designed to surround the driver. well bolstered seats, fine leather material that offers good comfort and lumbar support. bose stereo does a fine job,although maybe not par for those seeking aftermarket subwoofer lows, but fine for us folks appreciated quality, clear music. climate control works wonderfully, very powerful. the nightime dash lights are a wonderful red, making the gauges easily readable. the shifter is effortlessly moved from gear to gear, making full use of the engine. has everything a 25yr old guy needs who has fun to drive, practicality and reliability on his mind.

More Bang 4 The $ - 2003 Acura RSX
By geofkent - July 3 - 2:00 amMy last performance car was a BMW Z3. It proved to be too impracticle for most purposes so it had to go. I wanted to find a car with the same performance but usable interior and trunk space. Well, I found it! The engine, transmission (6speed) and brakes/suspension are all world-class. Plus, you can actually haul stuff with it. Lots of stuff. Oh, buy the way did I mention? It runs like it looks...FANTASTIC!

The best car Ive owned - 2003 Acura RSX
By MattsRSX - July 2 - 2:00 amI was in the market for a new car because my 98 Audi A4 1.8T was dying at 86,000 miles. Another A4 was tempting but too expensive and unreliable. I wanted something fast, fun and somewhat practical. I was flipping through a magazine when I came accross the RSX Type S. 200 hp 2.0 liter engine, 6 speed tranny, Car and Driver 10Best. Wait a sec...this car is only $23k! I picked up my Artic Blue Pearl RSX Type S on Friday, June 27th and I am in love. I can get 30 mpg and still smoke a V8 Mustang.

excellent in all areas - 2003 Acura RSX
By Marwin - June 26 - 2:00 amI was not prepared to feel the power of the IVtech engine. The long distance drives are more fun with the BOSE stereo system. My last car was a Camaro.

Midnight Maraurder - 2003 Acura RSX
By CJ Majesty - June 25 - 2:00 amThis car takes corners effortlessly, it has decent amount of power on tap, silky smooth transmission the seats are comfortable & supportive. The ride is comfortable .........until you hit a bump, Steering is firm & direct. The car feels very stable at high speeds. The Bose sound system is not as bad as people say it is depending on the quality of the CD & the signal strenth of the radio. I find that visablity in the rear is blocked by the C-Pillar. But overall best car i ever had.
