I doubt that will do anything to persuade Honda.

Very true! I already wrote Honda and they said there is basically no chance of them coming. It's too bad! I think the petition is more for just fun, but it goes to show how many people are interested!

I'd much rather sign a petition to bring back the double wishbone suspension.

...and since they usually know jackshit, I would just go ahead and disregard everything coming out of their mouths.

Many mags have reported the CTR coming, w/ no mention of the RSX-R/ITR but who knows.

Just think of how good the DC5R would be had it been blessed with a proper double wishbone setup.

I feel the TSX might fullfill that dream.

Why are people always trying to belittle the RSX? It handles fine, why so much bitching about it? Do you own an RSX? Is it that bad? I agree they should have kept the double wishbone suspension but who cares get over it.

Ive driven an RSX-S for a few days and I found it handled fine, but it would ahve handled so much better (at the cost of interior room) if it was a double wishbone setup. It didnt handle any better than my current car, it just had more power and the interior was nicer. In the 7-8 years between the products I would have expected a greater improvement.
