i have a choice of either purchasing a 2001 type R 10k miles from a friend..... for very good price....... or i can get the NEW RSX-S........ as of rite now im kinda leaning towards the type R, but afraid of the high insurance rate.......... wat do you guys tink.....?????????
any help is appreciated............ tanks.....

 

Its A type R forum what do you think were gonna say.


Go post this in the RSX forum see what kind of responce you get

 

Y dont u buy the type-r and if u dont like it then trade it in for the rsx-s.

 

Depending on your age both cars will have high insurance rates - mainly due to the fact that they're stolen left, right and centre all across the country.

If you want leather, A/C, sunroof and a torquier motor go with the RSX. Otherwise go with the R (and prepare to alarm the out of it, be paranoid about getting it stolen every waking moment of every day, deal with haters and vandals, and lots of attention from the cops).

Simple choice to me....

 

vegeta...... i already did.....

 

---begin rant here

This is My philosophy

Anyone who questions if the should get an R, should'nt get one

its a car for a certain type of person, not for everyone

I knew since they came out that it was the car for me, never had to think twice. always knew what I wanted

so thats why I say if your questioning your decision than the R is probely not for you

Its a loud, rough riding, superfun car to drive.

its not a car for someone who justs want to say they have a type R


-------end rant

 

and so what did the RSX, "BTW it's really an Integra" guys say?

I agree with Vegeta to some extent with if you have to ask then maybe you don't lnow enough about it. Did or have you test driven either? I think you should. they will both drive completely differently and you may feel a decided opinion of what you want After you drive both!

So go West young man and drive the Sh*t out of both to see what you will be getting into.

Good Luck, And as Vegeta said, I also knew after driving my 94 LS for 4 years that I just had to get the R, and No the GSR for me just wouldn't do.

A.

 

*wipes away tears*
thats fuggin beautiful man...

 

Well said Vegeta.

Anyone who has to ask if they should get one...probably isn't looking in the right direction.

 

Get the RSX-S. Their maad phat yO. Waaay faster than any lousy R.

I completely agree with vegeta on this one.

 

Don't non-car driver's usually get a Volvo!?

 

HAHA, thanks, it flowed from my hands

 

Drive them, see what you like better.

If you're not going to track very often maybe an rsx would be better, but if you are going to the track a type R would be better ..

I personally would go for the R.

The Type R is not for everyone. I wish everyone who owned an R appriciated it as much as I do. There wouldn't be any R's running around recked all the time with super wide body kits or altezzas. The Type R is an enthuiests car and if you don't understand the car and it's potential, or are wanting to street race it and be a quarter mile badass don't get the R. Get the RSX-S so you can beat the **** out of it and I won't have to cry that another R is gone .

 

go right ahead, and use it

 

R

ANY QUESTIONS???
