Default I'm back in a honda

some of you may remember me from last year. i had an '01 ITR that i traded in for an Rx-8. WORST DECISION OF MY LIFE! you all gave me a lot of sh*t for it, and now i know why.

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1957194

anyway, i traded in the rx-8 (they gave me about half what i paid for it less than a year ago) for a 2004 RSX Type S. i know, i know, it's not an ITR but it's a honda.

thanks to all of you who bought my parts after i sold the ITR. it didn't nearly make up for the money i lost on the mazda, but it eases my pain a little bit.

rx8 is real fun car tho. but i just dont understand why u sold ur R
i went from s2000 to ITR..
and No i wasnt planning to comin back to Honda..

these were my options after s2k:
1.IS250
2.RX8
3.WRX
4.TL/RSX-S
i test drove these million times at many different dealers
but after i test drove my friends itr..
bam next day i got my ITR.
ITR was ALOT cheaper and alot more fun than those i listed

I really dislike the RX8. I thought it was a huge POS when I drove one. No where near the "sports car" feeling then its predecessor.

Welcome back nonetheless . I've always loved your avatar

i really liked the Rx-8, but the gas mileage sucked, and it had 77,000 miles and the reliability is questionable at best.

my avatar is a picture of my old 89 ls swapped hatch. it was a fun car.

Good choice with the RSX. Should have gone with the 2005 or 2006 for the refinements they made but nonetheless the 2004 is good too.

Type S was a good choice. I had one before the R and I loved it. Responds to mods very well.
