The owner of that car actually posts on clubrsx and he got really lucky because he took the car to the dealership after that and everything checked out fine(no damage).

If it's the car you want, go for it! The only reason those guys blow their engines is because they don't know how to shift. It's not because the car has a defect, it's because they have a defect

Oh man, I laughed so hard it brough tears to my eyes.

Way to go kiddo!

Too bad it didn't harm his engine. It would make my day to see another RSX out of commission. Oh well, I'm sure there'll be another opportunity for him.

No, not really. That is the problem!

You see, since about 1998 or so I had been looking forward to trading in my G3 for the G4 when it came out, but there's no way in hell I'd trade my Integra for an RSX. And there is not a single new car on the market today in the $25,000 range that I would own. Not a one.

So that is why I hate the RSX so much. There is nothing out there to replace the Integra, not even the Integra's suppoed replacement. That means I can't buy a new car that will live up to my expectations, and that sucks.

Actually it wasn't him driving, it was his friend. He was the one holding the cam.

Gee, how stupid of me not to know that. I guess my psychic antennae need adjustment.

What difference does it make to me who was driving? Either way, I would've liked seeing that motor blow up.

It makes no difference to you; I was just saying because you said something about him having another chance to really damage the motor...and yeah, the clip would have been more exciting if the engine had blown...oh well.

I bet it did do something... I bet that guy is driving it around like he thinks nothing happened, but do a compression test, and they would see more accurate results then... either way.... bad move on the drivers part...
