I hear base model is much cheaper on the insurance as opposed to the Type S. I also know that the Type S comes with leather seats and the base model doesn't (same type of seats but made of cloth). I'm not sure about the moonroof.

Also, is it possible to make a base model rsx into a type s? (assuming that everything can be swapped from seats to engine)

I'm not looking to race or anything. I dont know why everyone prefers the Type S.

 

Because the motor makes ~40-50hp+ over the base. Because the gearing is about 181348461x better. Lots of others too.

If youre not looking to race than grab you a base model and save loads of money.

 

I mean, do these K motors in the RSX last up til 200K miles? if not, how long til they give out? (assuming I know how to take care of any car).. do you recommend buying a used RSX at a dealer if its between 60-70k miles? (its cheaper too)

 

google or crsx is ur friend.

So is the FAQ and search button. We've been over this a few times.

 

Get the type s /thread

 

Went to the dealer today. clean *** rsx. tried to convince me into buying it but i didnt let my guard down. but he did tell me that type s burns a bit more gas than base models. true?

 

Well that would make sense wouldn't it? The type s makes more power an ways a little more so of course its going to burn more gas.

 

i mean, are there still going to be rsx-s models out there with low mileage within the next 4-5 years?
