Integra Type R vs Prelude vs RSX Type S
Im looking to buy a new Honda/Acura. Im just having trouble deciding between three, the integra, prelude, and rsx. Which of these three would be the better choice?

Re: Integra Type R vs Prelude vs RSX Type S (You Big Dummy)
Prelude = heavy
RSX-s = decent motor in a poorly setup vehicle..(suspension wise)
ITR = Best Honda this side of an NSX and CBR...their generators are pretty good too...

Although the prelude puts out good power, I heard they are pretty heavy. I'd say go with the Type R. Don't the Type-S and Type-R both do 14's stock?

Blah test drive them all and draw your own conclusions....
It seriously can't be that hard to trust your own judgement.....really.

Re: Integra Type R vs Prelude vs RSX Type S (jep)
Damn how many times have Ive seen a post like this 
. I own both 98' ITR and 01' SH...I love the feel of the SH for daily driving and the ITR for the over all performance. If you have the means to protect the ITR then you might think about the ITR.
I guess it all depends on what the car is going to be used for.
EDIT: The ITR outperforms the SH in every aspect, except comfort.

I think he was making a comment that the OP obviously had no business buying an R if he was asking such a question, and I can't say that I disagree

Best car for daily driving: RSX Type S
Best car for driving cross-country: Prelude
Best car for racetrack: Integra Type R
Best car if you do all three with your car, and you care more about performance than comfort: Integra Type R

Yes. I believe 2006 is the last year for the RSX, though.

Re: Integra Type R vs Prelude vs RSX Type S (schmo)
this is schmo...i pretty much forgot my password and i cant get the damn email for the new one, so i got this one...but..............
does the ITR have a better VTEC than the Type S? i've heard so much stuff about how the two, like about how the type s is a "half-a$$d" ITR.
