So ive been interested in picking up an 05 type S. I go down to the local Acura dealer, he tells me no more 2005's. They cant order them.. He said in 6 weeks, the 2006 RSX's will be coming out. This is no problem for me of course, because it will be about 6-8 weeks before i end up buying it anyway. But he said he has no idea what will be different between 05's and 06's. Im wondering maybe if anyone on here has any insight on the 2006 RSX's. Will anything be changed at all? I sure hope they make it an option to remove that ugly lip they call a spoiler. Because from what I understand, that little spoiler comes stock on all 2005 type S's.

 

anyone
?

 

they'll prob be the same as the 05....cept minor changes....they just made major changes to the 05 they wouldnt do anything drastic to the 06

 

i work at honda/acura and they havent told us of any changes. so i say the same

 

but after the 06 the rsx is done right? none coming out after 06?

 

I talked to a guy at honda corporate in torrance and he said honda will drop the mcpherson strut design after 05, also heard the people that honda got the strut design from was mercedes.

 

no one said anything else about this 2.


its all rumors

 

yeah I mean what would a guy who works at honda corporate know

 

who cares, lets just hope they scrap the rsx so our cars will go up in value.

 

ifourcar goes up in value cause its discontinued then the parts for our cars goes up in price too......

 

Hopefully they might release a Type R trim. That would be a good way to go out for its last year.

 

The most they would do is give us a rare color like championship white or something.

i was also lookin into the 05 S but cant find any. acura near me got two of them and were sold that day. i dont understand why they wouldnt make more since they are selling so fast.

 

I DONT THINK MUCH WOULD BE CHANGED... BUT WHAT WOULD BE AWSOME IS IF THEY BROUGHT THE TYPE r TO AMERICA FOR ONE YEAR.

whoops caps sorry

but as i was saying, bring it here in championship white with the k20a hot damn id be all over that car

 

im just waiting to sell my current car, before i place an order for a 06 Type S

how much are you willing to pay for the type R? just wondering...

 

ill pay up 2 like 26-27 for an R and if it does come out that will be the price point..... also if they do come out i will buy one and put it into storage haha.

 

ull probably be having to pay 29-31 out the door. sorry

That's what Honda probally wants you to pay because at only $26/27k you're looking at the price for an A-spec version of the type S. But if we're looking at more resonable 29-31 range, why not pay a few grand more and get the "S2k". It's like selling an EP3 at $19/20 k, which don't sell very well for a fact because people'd rather pay a few grand more for the type S. Figures why Honda hesitate to bring the R to the States. Here's another But, since the regime of the S2k is over in '06 and not very likely to be any "successor" to appear ( not that I know of), there's a slight chance that they might bring in the R in '06 and if they do, a good price point would be at around $28500... who knows what "Honda" will do.... It'd be nice to have the R tho...

 

i dont think there will be a type r after 06 as well

 

I put an order and a 200$ deposit at the local acura dealer for an 06 type s in vivid blue pearl today.. they said i should have it by mid september!.. cant wait!..

 

I'm considering 06 RSX-S as my next car too.

From the little research I've done it seems they might bring some new colors, thats about it, but what do I know..
