MY REVIEW OF THE ACURA RSX BASE AUTO
==================================


Interior
=======

Pros:
  • Very nice design
  • Love the seats(Love having cloth over leather)
  • Love how everything lights up Red
Cons:
  • The stuff on the dashboard is hard to clean and has a different feel to it. Gathers alot of dust
Conclusion:

Overall I find the Interior is very nice and has a great setup. The bucket seats a very comfortable and cannot complain. I have the cloth and not the leather which is good because I don't stick to it and my back doesn't get all sweaty. Like I mentioned the material on the dash is a little different on the drivers side and gathers dust and is hard to clean off. I love the black interior over the Tan interior. I like how the stereo is angled towards the driver for better viewing.

Exterior
=======

Pros:
  • Very sleek and nice.
  • Stands out from other cars especially the rear.
  • Two door, nice headlights, etc
Cons:
  • Can't think of much wrong with the exterior.
  • In my case it could of came with some Rims. All I got was the stock Hub Caps which truly suck.
  • Base model black lip kit looking thing that they decided to put on...
Conclusion:

I find the exterior to be very nice. I prefer the 02-04 model over the 05-06 model. The headlights on the 02-04 models are much nicer in my opinion. I have my headlights blacked out which really add to the exterior. I also have no wing which I prefer. I'm not a fan of the black lip kit thing and will be taking it off or getting it painted soon.

Performance
==========

Pros:
  • Very reliable car with a very reliable and dependable engine
  • Got some good get up and go for being a base model Auto.
  • 160HP
  • DOHC
Cons:
  • In my case would be the Auto Tranny. I should of gone Manual and hope to do a manual swap at some point.
  • While 160HP is a big jump from my old neon that has around 125HP, its still not that much compared to other cars.
Conclusion:

For me its still a very fast and reliable car. I came from a Dodge Neon that had little to no power. The steering and suspension is leaps and bounds better. The steering is so stiff and it turns so well.
