Best RSX-S
I am in the market for a nice RSX-S, but I can't decide what year to get.
I am looking to get one, between 2002 and 2004.
I've looked at some websites, and they show 2003 models to be a little heavier than 2002 models, also, 2002 models run quicker 0-60 than 2003. Is this true?
What production yr. model is the best from 02-04, and why?

Re: (EF_9)
If you read his actual post you'll see that he's looking for 02-04. I would say the heated side mirrors are definately a plus as well as you can still find some out there with low miles.

Jesus. Does no one read? The 05 and 06 are the same damn motor, same hp output. They only changed the SAE correction standard.

The 2005 RSX is the same as the previous years for the most part. They're upgraded with Type R cams, and a different final drive.

Incorrect sir, the '05 is 210 and the '06 is rated at 201 only because of new SAE standard measurement for hp ratings. Using these new method my car is also 201, old method 210.

Major? No. Minor, yes. The 05 and the 06 are the same car minus a new interior color offered I believe.
