Default test drove an 05 RSX today

I test drove an 05 RSX @ Bell Acura tonight.......

I must say i was impressed. The RSX never seemed like much to me b4, but after driving the 05, i give 2

The numerically higher Final drive is a big plus for the accel (10 hp aint ****) the larger swaybars are good, almost felt tail happy. the brakes have been changed to improve feel and modulation.

still needs a LSD, but If I can make the financing work........
I'll take mine in black thank you!

oh the tail lights blow big time , but the nose and headlights work in person

Yeah, I don't like the tails either or the headlights. Bell Acura was where my 03 DC5 was purchased originally, and now it's all the way in Hawaii. Awesome.
