Default Which RsX?

Im trying to decide which rsx to get.
These Are the 3 choices i have:
RsX Type-S 6spd manual
RsX Type-S 6spd manual FP (factory performance)
RsX Type-S 6spd manual with Mugen package

havnt decide turbo or supercharger yet but i thought if im gonna do stuff to my car.. might as well just get a normal rsx type-s so i dont waste money on stuff im gonna take out later

wat do YOU think?

I doubt there is a m00gen package.

But just get the RSX-S. Don't get the FPP.

Then get exhaust, Type R wing, and some wheels. Ohh God, so sexy.

Just get the standard Type S model. You can't go wrong and you can decide what you want from after you have some time to think about it.

I highly doubt their is a Mugen package.

Mugen package? It better come with more than just a radiator cap. To say the least it does sound interesting.

Go for the Mugen if there is a healthy amount of parts from Mugen that you get but if not go for just the regular Rsx Type-S b/c the Fp is a total rip off i think. And just to make shure there even is a mugen package and if there is also check that they are not ripping you off hardcore on the prices.

Nah foo

best gets da Tom's racing engine spoiler bling package

wait, better get 6 !

one for each intake yO!

I would get the base model RSX with the FPP in ABP color and have fun with the rest of the cash fixing it up.

I would start with Racing Hart cp035's with Azenis in the 205 40 r17 size and advance designs shocks with 400 f and 600 r Eibach ERS springs.

It's just I hate sunroofs

My base has a sunroof And everything in the FP package can be had in the aftermarket for thousands less (as long as you install yourself) but if you're not gonna touch the car, then you can get the FP, but for that much you could almost afford a 350z or something better.

depending on how much you want to spend 21k or 23k.. i got the type s it was worth the xtra 2k... as for the fp it's a waste don't spend your money on it when you can do it yourself for 2/3 the price maybe even less depending on the mods you choose...

rsx-s premium white

There's a Mugen Package, if there is it's not offered through all national dealers, must be lucky to find that at a dealer, but i'm sure you'll be paying an arm and a leg for that. Those pics are the King Motors Mugen Civic EP3 and the RSX Factory Performance package. I doubt there is a Mugen package out there at least not from a dealer.
