Ok, here's the situation, my dad's a car dealer. He came across a 2003 RSX, but it's not a type S with only 2k miles. But it has an R title, but still, thats a good price. It was primarily body damage, which is being taken care of. Now, I just got my 00 hatch 6 months, and I was out of the country for 3 of those months. So far, I'm on body and suspension. If you want to see a pic, check out my Garage. It runs great, and I'm gonna keep the engine stock until I run up some mileage which I seem to be doing alot of lately, going to college and back. It has 27k miles.

Not sure what to do, the RSX comes to my house next week, and I have a week to decide. I want to know what you guys would do, Thanks.

 

What kind of deal can you/will you get for the
RSX? It's just the base model, which means it
doesn't have the highest mod potential, but it
sounds like you may not be interested in that
anyway, as you said you'll keep your car stock...

I dunno, typically I'd say yes, b/c the RSX should
have a nice resale value, but it's been in an
accident/wreck, so...maybe go test drive one
at a dealership, see what you think.

 

8k for the RSX, which seems too good to pass up.
And sense it already have a pretty nice i-vtec engine in the base RSX, I could do some stuff to it, granted it's not the 200hp type S, but it's alot better than the stock DX D16.
But, if I keep the hatch, I'll drive to and fro college daily, run up the miles, rebuild and turbo it, or get a DOHC and go all motor.

I don't know

 

Keep your Ek and get a K20a

Bling

 

I think you should keep the EK. It looks great already, and there are lots of upgrades available, and more (K-series engines) in the future!

i agree

 

i agree. keep the EK. B16b swap !! K20 is good to0.

 

I have heard a lot of good things on the K's. I think I'll kill some time, and search about how difficult they are to put in my car.

 

Buy the RSX for 8K... sell it for $15k and your EK, then pick up the Type S.

 

I'll sell it, but not sure if I can get that much out of it, it's an R title
But it should still be worth something, it'll be fully fixxed, and still only have 2K on the engine, and it's a 2003
what do you guys think it'll be work?

 

My dad works for an Acura dealer, and brand new the base RSX model sells for almost 20 grand. I bet that if you fixed the parts it needed and kept the 2k mileage on it, you could get it off for 15 grand or more.

 

get the rsx, its a newer car, their is a whole lot more bling too something that is newer then something that is getting older.

MY OWN PERSONAL THOUGHTS:

Its cool to hook up a ek, and still eg's, but how i have been seeing it now. Whats going to be more bling to the ladies, a hooked up older car that most of them have no idea about, or a hooked up newer car that she is probably more aware of.

 

If it's a Type S, jump on it, if it's not, hold on to you EK.
