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.

Satisfied - 2003 Acura RSX
By jpcarvaj - March 17 - 2:00 amThis is the best car around for less than 22K. The VW GTI is a good contestant but the platform is getting old and boring, the Celica is a girly car and the Tiburon lacks reliability. If you are planning to buy this car youre making the smart choice. A good advice will be to test drive first the 5 speed manual, then the automatic, and finally the Type-S.

The truth - 2003 Acura RSX
By bt2000 - November 4 - 2:00 amI recently bought an RSX premium. Im satisfied with the comfort and the sportiness. Leather, heated seats and AC system are really usefull/good. My friends all like it. The car is easy to park. Some friends comment on the lack of base in the sound system, the difficulty of access and the lack of head room in the back seats (oh well). The engine purrs nicely, the AT trans. seems to shift at 3000+rpm meening accel is not that fast. In TripManual its better but still not amazingly fast off the mark. maybe Im expacting too much from a 4 cyl. Other than those little things, everything kicks ass in the RSX.

Fun to drive, reliable, great car! - 2003 Acura RSX
By Ryanoby - August 11 - 2:00 amI drove a lot of cars in this price range before deciding on the RSX. You get so much more car for the price, you cant beat it! Of the two doors out there, the Eclipse and the Celica are the only real competition - both are much more expensive. The Ecliipse has questionable quality and the Celica is a little too stylistic for my taste! I also drove the new Accord coupe - which completely lacked the sporting character of the RSX. All is all, I couldnt be happier.

Nice Ride - 2003 Acura RSX
By RJ Canuk - August 6 - 10:00 amGreat car to drive, its a ride. Many freinds have tried the car and all have one response, they cant believe how fast and with how little effort they catch up with the car in front of them. Or haw fast the car behinf is lost in te rear view mirror. And thats not even pushing the car.

All around great car - 2003 Acura RSX
By khuang - August 6 - 10:00 amI love this car. Had it for more then 2 months now. I did a lot of research and its the best car in its class. I could have chosen Celica or WRX but the best car for me was definitely RSX Type- S. I think Celica GT-S looks better but cost more with same options as RSX. WRX is more practical and faster but i dont like the styling, and dont need the added complications of AWD and a Turbo. I ended up with RSX because its fun to drive, handles great, relatively luxurious, gets good gas mileage, and has a very reasonable price.

Best Car for the money - 2003 Acura RSX
By Thunderek - June 23 - 10:00 amI am so pleased with my rsx. I was never too into cars, but i knew i wanted performance, luxury, advanced features for a great price. It was the first new car i ever bought. The shifter is like butter, speed is great, did great in the winter here in buffalo too. Sound system is great. If i had a quirk with it, id say the seats could use for comfort. But it is a sports car.
