View Full Version : Why did I buy an RSX?

I have come to the conclusion that the worst car purchase decision would be an prem rsx. Still with the updgrades that I have it is extremely slow. With very little upgrades that can be done to this car, I feel that I must sell this car, for something with a little more preformance.

then go for it. Trust me, i know how you feel. Ive had the same feelings (on a different car).

Just sell and try something new!

I know what you mean, I never liked the RSX for some reason. Drove 2 or 3 premium ones and didn't buy.

Seems like the new SI would be the way to go if I was in that market...

u should of got the type s

the premium model was never meant to be a super powerful car. it's meant to be more fuel efficient.. if you wanted more speed, then the type s would've been better for you. the handling is great though in my opinion..

i've always liked mine, i just have to sell for a sedan. but i agree with you the prem model isn't the fastest car in it's class, but definately very reliable and fun to drive

Sell it and get a type s. U wont be dissapointed. they feel like a completly differnt car. I owned a type s for about a year and loved it.

I'm not sure why they even had a premium model. It was only a few thousand dollars less than the Type-S. Last time I priced them out, Type-S was 34k and premium was 29k.

How do you guys feel about a 350Z?

350z comparing to a type s isnt THAT much faster

thats not even like comparing apples to oranges...it's like comparing apples to a bridge....the differences are huge the 350z owns the rsx in probably everything but fuel efficency. go for the 350z :thumbsup:

I believe it. i mean they are faster, but not nearly as fast as you would think. I raced a few in my rsx type s ( on a safe controlled track of corse);)

Sorath
04-12-2006, 10:18 AM
i know my friend who has a type s was neck and neck with a 350z he had intake exhaust and race header

teggypimp95
04-12-2006, 10:21 AM
Ya i just had intake and exhaust no header and i was around 3/4 of a car lenth behind. which is pretty for a 4 banger :thumbsup:

Feel free to believe what you want but the 350Z is in a completely different league than the RSX Type S. The RSX is a FWD Civic spinoff with a torqueless 4-cyl engine. 350Z is a RWD sports car with a torquey V6. You guys sound like the guys in the SRT-4 forums.

BTW: The 350Z is the most popular sparts car in Japan while the RSX is about to be dropped due to poor sales.

Sorath
04-12-2006, 10:24 AM
lets face it though, u were complaining about insurance prices before thats why u got the base instead of the type s and now u want a 350z :dunno: :dunno: :dunno:

honestly i think 350z's are really really overrated, i used to think they were fast, i was so wrong when i drove one

teggypimp95
04-12-2006, 10:24 AM
yeah they may feel differnt and they will both have there strenths in differnt areas, like in top end i think the rsx-s is gonna own a 350, but off the line the 350 is gonna own a rsx-s. but for the money differnce and insurance differnce and how good the rsx-s can be with few bolt-ons, i think its the better way to go.

After I purchased the car I decided to research my insurance (Stupid on my part) and it turns out insurance for me is not that much higher.

Matt @ Skye Service
04-12-2006, 10:35 AM
wow after looking at prices of 350Z, they are overpriced for what you get. Even an S2K is quite expensive also. ahh! what to buy? What to buy?

teggypimp95
04-12-2006, 10:41 AM
ya i think if i was looking for something like a 350 i would go for an s2k

You can't be serious.

You really believe that a torqueless 4 cylinder with 200 hp is better at the top end than a torque V6 with 280 hp?

You sound like STi guys that think their car is as good as an M3.

The RSX - type S is a nice car sporty car, but it isn't a sports car.

calgary350z
04-12-2006, 10:42 AM
just so you know the insurance on my 350Z was cheaper than on my RSX type S and I owned both and can safely say the 350 owns the type s in more ways than 1. Uprgrades are also not as bad as everyone makes them out to be. I did a few for a very reasonable price and felt a big difference. I miss it and would recommend buying one over a RSX if you can afford the difference in price.

benyl, give it up. After exhausting myself at SRT-4 forums trying to explain to the kids that the SRT-4 is not a Ferrari, I've come to the conclusion that love is blind and when these kids fall in love with these econobox cars, they tend to live in a world where 5HP on a dyno justifies $250 purchases. It's best to let them believe that the Type S is an incredible machine as you just can't make the ignorant un-ignorant.

Who cares.

Both RSX-s and 350z will feel slow in due time. There are always cars that you'll want that will be faster and better. It's all personal preference. Drive both extensivelly and figure out which one you like better. Then walk away for a few days and see how you feel after. I know when i test drive cars the urge is to buy it on the spot if i like it, which is bad.

Yes it's bad but pretty well everyone does it, I know I have. How do you think dealerships stay in business after fucking people over annually.

The best thing is to do your homework by checking out things like consumer reports & for the performance minded, C&D, R&T, Motor Trend, etc. If after the research you think think you'll like it and if the test drive confirms you want it, you'll probably be satisfied.

The Type S is a good car possibly the best of the sport compacts you can buy right now but to compare it to a 350Z is pretty weak.

very true.. its unreal how biases these Car VS Car threads get because everyone tries to justify their purchase!

a Type S is a good buy in its price range. Thats the bottom line. My Type S cost me less than a new SI would. After you factor in the haggle margin on a Type S and the lower interest rate, the Type S actually came out cheaper than a new SI.

In regards to the 350 VS Type S.. Of course the 350 is faster, but given equal tires on a road course its not like the 350 is going to walk away from a Type S like an F1 car would from a road car. Its faster but lets get some perspective here. Its not THAT much faster

If you look at both cars, they're both top buys in their price/class range. If i was looking to buy a 2 seat coupe in the $40-50 range it would be a 350. If i was (and i did) looking to buy a 4 seat coupe in the 30-35 price range i would buy a Type S. Both cars are winners.

LOL, the closest thing you can buy to the DTM cars is the M3 CSL and the CLK DTM AMG which they only made 100. You'd be looking at prices well into the 100 000's, M3 CSL isn't as expensive but still well over $100 000 if I remember correctly, can't remember if they're available in Canada.

That will happen with any car you get unless you constantly mod it.

My car feels super slow right now even though I know it is one of the quicker cars on the streets right now. You just can get away from that once you get used to getting sucked into the seat.

I've tracked my 350z against a RSX type S and unless it was mostly driver difference, the 350z does walk away from the Acura at Race City. Of course my right foot might weigh a bit more :D Lets just say having little torque coming onto the back straight or out of the carosel onto the front straight is not a pretty thing.

I drive a RSX premium too with less mods than you Matt.
I find my car is fast though.
I think my RSX with SRI, RH, Exhaust is a very quick car.
There's still much more I can do to the car and improve my driving skills. So I like it.

Then again, maybe my car actually isn't fast... but I don't know...
I don't think the same as you straight-line drivers out there.
If you want fast, I beat a supercharged 350Z. Is that fast?
And I passed up a BMW M3. Is that fast too?

Because im not well verced with the K-Series Motor that makes me stupid. I dont understand when there is a normal thread posted some asshole has to come in and start bashing someone else to get a hard on because they feel that there life is a insignificant waste of time. Man go make a mayonnaise sandwich and fuck your sister

You have an attitude problem, I hope you don't talk to your customers like that.

Where is the love, i dont see the need for any bashing:dunno:
the RSX is not a bad car by any means, i dont know about comparing a 350 to a RSX...if the RSX was a tad bit cheaper then i think it isnt a bad buy at all, driven a couple and it feels good! Good reliability!
Its nice for just city driving and not tooo spirited of a driving habit

I can imagine a good lot of people startin to feel that their car is slow, especailly after getting into a faster car then hopping back into your own car and thinking...'damn this thing is slow' hahah i definitely feel this way.
i'm lookin to move up to a faster car...the H23 just does NOT cut it :dunno: anyone have good suggestions for a next car with a budget of approx$10-15k?! (this includes funds from selling my 95 prelude) or should i just pour some money in to get a pretty decent suspension setup?! :hijack: Just lookin for another viewpoint

I don't think the same as you straight-line drivers out there.
If you want fast, I beat a supercharged 350Z. Is that fast?
And I passed up a BMW M3. Is that fast too?

:rofl: :rofl: I know this was already quoted but that's too good to pass up.

Very eloquent. Really, I mean it. I am in awe. Bravo for rising to the pinnacle of society. My penis shrivels in your almighty presence.

Wasn't there a turbo MR2 on sale in the marketplace? That would be a fun car to whip around in.

Whats with the harassment Si_Flyguy? From your first post you've been nothing but an ass. What business is it of yours what he does with the Kpro? Or what car he likes or dislikes for that matter. Stop being so butt-hurt and get over it.

If you paid a little more attention to his first post you'd realize he was not exactly knocking the car, but saying purchasing it was a mistake on his part because it is not what he wanted for performance. Sorry to say it, but there are many people on this forum that can do a lot better than a DC5.

I think my RSX with SRI, RH, Exhaust is a very quick car.
There's still much more I can do to the car and improve my driving skills. So I like it.

I jsut wanted to clarify one thing witht his thread, Its not this particular car that I dont like, this is not a slam on the RSX buyers or anything like that, This car was not exactly what im looking for.
