Just saw this. Crazy!

 

"Acura claims the RS is the stiffest coupe ever made, which jibes well with our impression. On the track, the RS felt even more solid than a C6 Corvette coupe."

Now thats what I like to hear.

 

when the evo and sti didn't exist, there were not too many performance cars at the 30k price range. the rsx-rs doesn't exist, and there aren't too many competitors at the price range. i'm talking about more performance minded cars.

i wonder what competitors the rsx-rs will have.

 

Not sure what to make of it. I guess its nice if its the truth but Ill beleive it when I see something official from Acura/Honda...

 

I know exactly what you mean. But after reading the whole article they said they tested it. wtf? where and when? Then I read "AWD" on the spec section. WOW

 

Damn that's sweet, 9k redline and AWD!

I bet Subaru and Mitsubishi will beef up their 2007 to stay in competition. But 40k is a bit pricey.

Yea it did seem pretty in depth to be made up but if they drove it and got that much data then it means a functional concept has been made, and then wouldnt Honda want to show it off themselves before letting others touch it? I dunno, I just am always skeptical of all of these car rumours. Also, if they got all of this in depth time wheres the pics?

 

That's just WOW and high priced. I'll get one when I'm old =P

THIS IS JUST A RUMOR. THIS IS JUST A RUMOR. THIS IS JUST A RUMOR.

if you read the article carefully, there is a lot of mismatched information. also, the picture of the car is actually the concept a-spec model rsx.

the creator of the article also admitted that it was a prank.

THIS IS JUST A RUMOR. THIS IS JUST A RUMOR. THIS IS JUST A HUMOR.

heh

 

doesnt work for me either

 

I tried to get to the bottom of the rumor but there was just a link to a link to a link to a link to a link. pretty much neverending. AWD rsx = ungodly and just unlike any Honda product.

 

I seriously doubt that Acura actually has plans for this car. One, low sales numbers and a high production cost---it would cost a hell lot to retrofit the Civic chassis with AWD. Additionally, we haven't heard of them working on this project; it's suprising that they're going to offer it in one year.

Plus, they have all the JDM style Type-R engineers workin on the new NSX.

 

plus isnt 06 the last yr for the rsx

it wouldn't be hard to retrofit if the chassis was designed to have these parts in later iterations.

 

that's fake i read about it in crsx and even the writer admitted that he made it up anyways 2400 LBS was a dead giveaway cuz a V6 that weighs 2400 lbs... i wonder whats its made of and whats in it?

 

this would be a beast

 

goodness. once again, it's a fake!!!

Yeah for the DC5. They are working on a replacement! I hope it is call Integra again! But probably not....

 

If you read ToVtec, it talks about how Honda is slowly incorporating their SH-AWD into other cars. The next car to get SH-AWD is an SUV. Honda talks about making a huge shift in what they currently do, which is FWD. The huge shift is to RWD with this SH technology. Eventually we will see more RWD cars from Honda besides the S2.


I cant wait, can you?

 

that might cause more accidents, burn outs, and excessive drifting.

but i'd enjoy a rwd honda any day

 

DAMN I CANT SEE IT IT WONT LET ME !!!!!!!!!

 

i wont let me see it some 1 post the pics and the article or whatever so i can see it thanx
