LOL - same thing happened to me. When the RSX first came out, I didn't like it much, but after driving it, I was hooked. Great car and successor to the teg.

it's from the impression you guys have given the mods.

Well all it takes is for a few dumb stunnas to ruin it for everyone. They are in every car like : type R,gsr, wrx, you name it and a stunna has given it a bad name. Like I said it only takes a few rotten apples to ruin it for everyone else.

Yea at first I didn't like the RSX,but as time goes on you start to get use to it and the love grows,It will more than likely be my next car,being I love And I think the RSX is gonna be a raw car once all the mods are out and people really see the potential of the car.Like the GSR it took a little time before there were millions of mods from different manurfacturers,and lots of experiments.

i know what your saying man. the rsx is awesome. good, smooth power, beatiful interior, love the styling, handles like it's on rails, and the shifter? OMG PERFECT! when i was working at acura they loaned me an rsx because my car was getting fixed. even though it was the sequential shift i was still thoroughly impressed. the only gripes i have about the rsx is the slow throttle response and it feels a little floaty when corners are taken at the limit. i really wish the type-S could come with a cloth interior and also in the color white(we canadians don't get that color, but we do get gunmetal rims) but of course no car is perfect but it is bar none the best car in its class.

Well a stock rsx is good but to high for my taste. Once you lower it, it handles like a dream. Open it up more and the response gets better. Add a few mods and let the engine break in and it gets better.

my only beef with the RSX is it's too tall, and if you lower it enough so it looks okay, it's too low and you scrape everything. But I'm sure the tall look will grow on me cuz it seems every car coming out now is tall...SI's, Camry's, 745i's, Matrix, etc.

A stock RSX is pretty high. I lowered mine alot and it looks nice now and it handles alot better as well. If you lower it 1.5-2 inches it looks nice,heehe not so high. Well good luck.
