Default RSX vs Integra GSR (3rd Gen.)

Alright, I know this is the RSX forum but I'm considering an RSX (5spd) because of the reputation of the 3rd gen. Teg's being stolen a lot around California. BUT, lets think critically k?

So knowing what you know about both cars, which one would you get in the end if they both cost the same (oh lets say under 7k)? Thanks.

you really found a clean titled, good condition rsx-s for under 7k??

stock for stock the rsx-s should be a tad quicker and have a more luxurious feel whereas the GSR will have more of a sporty feel.

But a gsr will rape a base rsx. If youre that concerned with theives than dont get a 3rd gen.

Id expect to pay less than that if it has 82k miles.

If you have the money I think you should grab the '05-06 RSX-S. Much cleaner IMO

Theres plenty of people on here with bolt-on gsr tegs that have gone into 14s.

As for BONE stock ive seen 14.9999 on a stock gsr and thats the fastest to date bone stock lol.

Ive ran a few base models before. I already had almost 2 cars when around 50mph in 2nd from a very low roll. Theyre slower than EP3s lol. But if I were to BUILD a k20 in an rsx than Id definitely grab me a base model. Most stock base model RSXs ive seen are doing low 16s anyways lol.

I'm missing the point of this thread. You need to get what car you like the best as opinions are going to be all over the place.
