so can you get these things yet? Or do we still have to wait? I need to get to the dealer and drive one. Drving impressions? I'm sure I missed all this already but, o well

 

I know this girl that's about to get a silver RSX Type S in about a month...I guess they don't have it in stock but they took her deposit already...I'm sure someone must have one already?/?

 

I saw one on the road. It was a silver RSX-S. I know it was a Type-S because when it passed me (not racing, just ambling along), there was that RSX-S (the S part in red) badge on the back.

This is in Davis, CA. Don't know the chick who was driving it, though. I didn't really care to stop and shoot the breeze (late for class, tired, hungry, the usual).

Besides. The girl was yappin' on the cell and I hate it when people do that. At the very LEAST get a hands-free addition. Fookin'-a. Almost got run off the road TWICE in one trip (down to LA...go figure) because of that cell-phone crap. Ooops. I digress.

theres an RES type S in GT3

 

i don't like the rsx.. i went and test drove one and was very dissapointed... id rather have my 2k gs-r... it didn't feel all that fast.. it felt alright for stock.. the only thing i want out of the car are those damn seats those are bad... but for the car id never waste my money.. its ugly and not very fast... and yes i did drive the type s

 

Yeah, I wasn't surprised. I drove my freind's Type S yesterday. It's ok, I'm happy to say that my B16 feels faster

My car can get older and older, but as long as I get faster and faster, it's ok.

I've test driven an RSX-S, and I'd have to say the reason it doesn't feel as fast is, a) It's much quieter, so you can't hear the wind whipping by as easily and b) it's suspension, while solid, doesn't pass along the road-feel in the same way, and so you can't tell speed by roadfeel. It's got plenty of zip, but I think you'd have to have a GSR and an RSX-S side-by-side comparison to really see the difference. I think it's every bit as fast, just that a driver used to a GSR doesn't feel it.

 

RSX Type S runs 14.8 in the 1/4 mile and 6.1 0 to 60. Bye bye GS-R.

 

Bye Bye Type-R too....

 

an ITR can run 14.8 stock! a I have seen and heard of GSR running 14.8 with just cai/h/e. for the price of a RSX-S I'd rather buy a WRX!
