Default After the dealership....

will i just droped #902 off at the dealership for tranny work, and guess what i got as a loaner. RSX-S.

damn this thing feels really fast!!! and boy is the ride comfortable!!! its like being in another world i tell you. no more "jerky motion" "ear bleeding engine noise" "bumpy ride" and the insesent "creaks" and "rattles."

damn its like sitting in my sofa, but im cruising around town at the same time

this car seems really fast and has a really smooth power curve...kinda like a lincoln or a ford V8--vtec is almost unnoticable

i could get really used to this...but deep down, i cant wait to get #902 BACK.

I like all the noise and everything that goes with owning an R. I hated the RSX-S. I felt like it had much less power than the R. I also thought it was too tall and it showed in the handling, not to mention the new goofy suspension. It's a whole different car, a luxury sports car, emphasis more on luxury than sports. Well, as much luxury as you can have in that price range at least. My opinion on the rsx-s -

did you say... VTECH????? I thought this was about an RSX-S??!!??

Relax guys, you all know what he means.

The RSX-S is a good car, but it's not an R. VTEC is much less noticible, because it varies.

EXACTLY.....that's why they called it Type-S and not Type-R

Honda did some thinking before they picked a name

the type S is all about providing a luxurious ride while still having ample performance. It all depends on what your needs/ wants are in a car. For me type R all the way.
