Default finally got my..

RSX!

its a nice car.. more refined than the teg, different handling. not necessarily bad, but the stock rubber is its typical CRAP, so its hard to judge.

From the front, it looks more narrow than the teg, but handles like it is wider than the teg.

power wise, cant really say, havent been past 5k yet. still breaking in, so the most its seen is an occasional 5k zing. the low-mid torque tho, is MUCH better than the teg. you can really feel a difference off the line.

all in all, my judgement so far, not necessarily a race car, but a nice handling pretty powerful daily driver. interior is much improved with many of the little things, exterior looks are growing on me.

and, most important, im tryin my hardest to not mod it! i hope the "i have a new car feeling" doesnt wear off too quick!

i got arctic blue... ill post pics soon.. pretty boring looking, stock car. lol. clean tho.. wzxed it up, so it looks good at least.

i wound up using AOW.. after they found out that curry contacted me they 'really' wanted my biz..lol. good, i didnt wanna deal with curry anyway.

got a decent deal. 6.5%, $23950 for rsx-s in artic blue with spoiler and wheel locks. im happy. and glad i got to buy from AOW and deal with familair faces since my last purchase there.. (although one of the guys (ill leave names out) didnt wanna negotiate at all, as a matter of a fact, he hung up on me, and when my other contacts there found out, called me right back!)
