• High-revving Type-S engine, plenty of standard equipment, nimble handling.

• Modest torque output, tight rear-seat headroom.

  Sporty and fun - 2003 Acura RSX
  By Joni - August 3 - 1:49 pm

  This was my first Acura and probably not the last. The car has awesome acceleration, great handling and is very fun to drive overall. Decent gas mileage, lots of looks, six speeds and the classic tell tale headlights (I like the 02-04 look better than the later 05-06 models). The third gear does grind from time to time. You really have to carefully place the gear to avoid it. Also this car is incredibly connected to the road. You hear and feel every little bump... a good thing if youre driving a sportier car, but tiresome if its also your daily driver. Finally the insurance on this car is outrageous.

  Fabulous starter into the luxury world - 2003 Acura RSX
  By LP - July 24 - 9:05 pm

  This car is a luxury car at a great deal. Acura has a great reputation for quality, as they are made by Honda. This car is no exception. Its fun to drive and handles wonderfully. Great standard features that would normally have to be added for an extra price, come standard.

  Great car - 2003 Acura RSX
  By Jools109 - June 14 - 2:00 am

  I switched from lifelong ownership of GM vehicles to the foreign market just for a change of pace. I dont believe I will be going back ever again. I have never been more pleased with a car, its value, or the general ownership experience ever.

  Fun to drive, high revving car. - 2003 Acura RSX
  By bpayne - March 28 - 11:45 am

  Another great car I have owned. This car has a sporty look to it with the optional A-spec package offered by the acura dealership which includes spoiler, lip kit and upgraded suspension rims and tires.

  Type-S = Satisfaction - 2003 Acura RSX
  By Speeder Ty - January 31 - 2:00 am

  Perfect for highway buzzing and a touch stiff in town on poor roads, (I just choose better routes). With only 6000K its just broken in but the power comes quicker than it did! We enjoy the sound system, dispite other reviews for sound , you can crank the volume over the engine noise. This one is a keeper.Keep the revs up for maximum pleasure.

  I Love my RSX! - 2003 Acura RSX
  By Chris Mr RSX - January 26 - 10:00 am

  The best car in its class. Its a joy everytime I get in my car. I love the leather and interior design, especially at night. whoo. this car blew me away. I was going to get the Type-S but the 5-speed felt better to me and its alot more drivable in city driving.

  Tremendous Value - 2003 Acura RSX
  By RSXman - January 26 - 10:00 am

  Before purchasing this car, I drove and considered the following: Eclipse GT, Celica GT-S, Volkswagen GTI, Honda Civic, Honda Accord Coupe, Pontiac Grand AM GT1. The Acura is so far above these other cars in every way, Im still amazed. The build quality is astounding, the materials used inside are very nice, not just cheap plastic. Buying experience very easy, there are no options other than useless crap you buy at the dealer, so finding the right one is easy. If youre looking for a car with NO compromises, this is the one. Very fast, handles extremely well, lacks no features, and still gets almost 30MPG in the city.
