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.

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.

Very competent, lacks zip - 2003 Acura RSX
By Heliotar - June 23 - 10:00 amThe Acura RSX is a well-built and well- designed car, yet it lacks the frisky spirit of the Integra. The engine has more torque and is easier to manage than the old Integra, but is not as fun to dip into high-rev territory, despite the higher horsepower. I cannot put my finger on why, but the sheeps clothing ultimately dominates the wolf within. Maybe it is because the steering is a little remote and the brakes feel a bit spongy. This is a fast and capable car, that manages to be one of the greenest pure gasoline engine vehicles on the road.

Love It! - 2003 Acura RSX
By robbiefresno - May 12 - 10:00 amLove the car. Looks great. Drives Great. Nice and tight ride with a very responsive engine. Friends are impressed. I take Mulholland Drive home from work now just so I can drive the curves. The stereo does need to be played loud to get the bass but hey, this car is for sporty people with sporty tastes.

Acura keeps doint its job - 2003 Acura RSX
By Malafama - November 21 - 2:00 amI laugh when i see people in here talking about "performance" Thinking that when they buy a Type-S they are getting a Viper! This is a car to enjoy and feel not a drag racing car, but if you wanna try it lets do it on the streets where we have to corner and lets see what happen to those "Muscle" which i do respect but they are a different category. Acura did a great Job on this coupe, it is nice in and outside, nice power and for those who likes to hook cars up, this is just perfect. Excellent handling and cornering. IF you have one enjoy it, if you dont run and get one, u wont be disappointed if you are looking for a car to enjoy the ride.

Cant stop smiling - 2003 Acura RSX
By JAV - October 10 - 2:00 amThis car is so much fun. When the iVTEC kicks in, the power and sound are wonderful. It is so much fun to run through the gears that I actually dont mind stopping at traffic lights. I have found a new route home from work that incorporates the most curves. My wife and two teenage boys love it too.

Fun to Drive - 2003 Acura RSX
By bspancake - July 21 - 2:00 amThis was my first car I purchased on my own. I was in the market for a small pickup truck and had my mind set on a toyota. I got talked into taking the RSX for a test drive and never looked back. The smooth shifting and great handling was enough for me to purchase. The standard features (leather, sunroof, cd player, etc..) was more added incentive. I love driving this car everyday. For a base car with no features, this car gives the most bang for your buck.
