[badseed]

btw - i like shiting on my dash

[ridiculous_]

prolly a good idea on a hot summers day

[badseed]

HAHAH................ fuck I meant "shifting". I can see why people like these carz, I just personally don't care for them all that much, but props to the new rizz

[Hash_man]

Nice nice... congrats... I've driven one a few times, and I love the shifter on the dash, probably the best feature of the car, along with the recaros.... But i still like having torque, which i found none of with that car... anway, nice purchase.

[C4S]

:)

nice .. they are made in the UK, right ?

much better then all other domestic civic ! Go British Go !

:thumbsup:

[topher91]

Awesome!!! Where did you purchase it?? I'm about to buy a new EP3 also in the same color!!! How good of a deal did you get ??

i got it at Calgary Honda in the automall.

$26k out the door @ 1.8%

but the 1.8 was just a special last weekend. all they have now is 2.8 (still good)

let me know if your going to Calgary Honda and i'll point you in the right direction of who to talk to :thumbsup:

[brandon]

hey man congrats! we should have a meet sometime soon!

[QuasarCav]

Nice car man!

The haters are just jealous, I like the look of the "civic minivan" It just grows on me.

[Xtrema]

Extremely fun car but @$25K is a bit much.

So you knock $2K off and got 1.8% finance? That's pretty good.

Love the shifter and seat. But the exterier style just doesn't do much for me.

[Moonracer]

Nice purchace dude. It'll be alot of fun for ya I'm sure. I certainly like it and the shifter is right in the perfect spot. I wish more car companies put it there. :thumbsup:

[Gonthro]

ok i need a shot of the interior, need to know why everyone is so extatic about the shifter... never seen the interior of this car.


ok i saw a picture of the shifter... thats definantly intresting... is it good for quick shifts?

[ZorroAMG]

Alfa Romeo did that way back, it ain't no Honda innovation :D Something about being linked directly to the gearbox :dunno:

[roopi]

Nice car. I've always wondered why I don't see more of these around.

[brandon]

heres a pic of the interior (minus the seats, carpet and red h on wheel) thats all on the CTR ep3

[brandon]

Sure you can, i paid only $26,000 plus gst for a premium acura rsx that makes an extra 10ft lbs torque, is about 100 lbs lighter in weight, full leather interior, full climate control, heated seats and factory 16" mag wheels.

I like both cars as they are very similar, but liked the extra features on the dc5 chassis for a similar price.

[A_3]

Fun cars. I didn't like them at first but they have been growing on me since I went and sat in one at the Honda dealership. As they've been becoming slightly more predominant around Calgary I have seen some very nice ones, alot of potential! Good luck and good choice :thumbsup:

i couldnt bring myself to get one of the new rsx's... i think the new head+tail lights are ugly.

:dunno:

if i could have gotten an old on then maybe but :dunno:



and fuck the beemer shit :thumbsdow

[lam-boy]

nice pick up dood!

I love the eggs! (some reason it reminds me of an egg haha.)

[grocko]

Nice looking car man :thumbsup: I'm looking into getting one of those for myself next year....

[heavyD]

Nice car! I've owned a couple of Civics and in alot of ways they were the best cars I've ever owned. The Bimmer comment was ridiculous. :thumbsdow Sure they are great cars but I could only see myself in a Bimmer when I get into my 40's and am forced to wear a suit & tie. The idea is to get cars that your dad DOESN'T drive. The day I see a yuppie grey hair in a suit & tie get out of a modded Eclipse, I'm selling my car.

[ZorroAMG]

The day a "yuppie" drives an eclipse, he's no longer a yuppie. :D:rofl: :rofl:

WTF is the point of telling the guy he should have bought a BMW when it's plain and obvious he's already made his decision??:rofl: Should have said that when he was searching, not when he's already posted pictures of his new ride.

Anyway, congrats again on the purchase. Just a simple OEM Kit and CF hood will really make that car shine! Woohoo! Perhaps we can take pics together if you get that set up:bigpimp:

No you're the high roller. Only highrollers have mods that are worth more than the car itself.

Or people who try to make their car sound more exotic by using a play on words.

Only highroller advertize where they work and what they do for a living hoping to attract new clients but be an asshole in 90% of the post he makes.

[GTS Jeff]

congrats! theyre kickass cars!

the shifter is awesome cuz its so close to the steering wheel and ppl who say its torqueless are just braindead cuz it makes more torque at lower revs than any other civic out there.

[A2VR6]

rsx vs ep3 was the same for me..... but theres too dam many rsx's on the road + rsx is $2k-$4k more.

[sUbZeRo]

man those civs are awesome..... Any word if there bring the civ Type-R here?? I heard they were, I use to work for Acura in edmonton an I think they said they were going to but haven't heard anything else on it??

[7thgenvic]

I'm loving it. I've always been a fan of EP3s.. those wheels look so nice :D

[Uncle ben]

Nice car man. I love the colour. A calgary EP3 meet is in order this weekend. I'm All the way in edmonton, but i'd drive out on a saterday to meet up with some fellow ep3 pilots.

Had A RSX---sold it for The ep3----The secretary look just did not work for me---and I know for sure the EP3 is quicker---tracked both cars with different drivers. In addition The torque is equal at the wheels---not sure why more is lost in the RSX---. In addition the EP3 seems to have better brakes the Electronic Assist system helps out alot. The EP3 comes with 16" wheels as well!
Oh ya the The RSX premium tips the scales at 1230 the EP3 1245---that is 32 pounds not a 100. The feature I hated the most in the Rsx was the freakin Leather seats--slid around in them like a Mofu on hot Butter!!!

TO top it off not everybody in town including there Grandma has AN EP3


anyway My .02$ from Experience---Good Purchase 88CRX--YOU WILL ENJOY

[gpomp]

nice car!:thumbsup:

[viffer]

Nice car dude. I'm looking to get one of those in the spring, depending on money.

Hey I know it is sweet ---I'm running 17"Koning Holes ---Getting some HIDS--and I have a custom homemade--intake---it's rice.


I'm on EPHATCH.com quite a bit it awesome for info about our cars. I'm under the same user id as here.

Ttys

[ricosuave]

that car is 25 large? jeez!

[ACX]

The rims and color treat that well..

i'm a gay roller

<---turbo neon

[Sorath]

nice car bro!, its a very smooth ride, ive test drove it before buying my rsx. however i think 25 big ones is still too much for that car, nonetheless good car.

25,900 big ones For a Base 2005 RSX---is way too pricey the darn Thing doesn't even have:
- Map Lights Vanity Mirrors,
-Cruise, Sunroof,
-Alloys,
-Micron Air Filtration System,
-Leather-wrapped 3-spoke steering wheel
which are included in the SIR which runs the same HP figures. Sounds like the Sir is a better deal to me than the Base RSX. Would not of bought an Sir over My Rsx if it wasn't a better deal.

My .02$

[syeve]

I would have got an EP3 over a base RSX anyday. Especially white!!;)

[jtsimaras]

here ya there---Hmm Taffeta White. I wish my EP3 was this color--mine is silver.

[dsmer]

i hate those hatches. i would have gotten a Civic Sir coupe or add 2k and get a srt-4 but just my opinion, if you like it, great. looks nice.

[awd]

I like it, and I don't think 25K for it is a big deal either.

I just don't like the "dashboard shifting", although I tried it in a friend's matrix and it wasn't that bad.

[Seanith]

I doubt if you were in the market for a brand new car you would settle for a 4 or 5 year old car instead.

Go Drive A New SIR and then go drive a 1998-2000 SIR and then tell me how much you hate the new SIR.
When I bought my USED 2003 SIR I test drove a 2000 SIR right before test drving the 2003 SIR---hmm no comparison---the 2000 just felt so cheap in comparison---especially the interior. To make the 2000 go you had to rev the living shit out of it---sorry I need a little more torgue than like 110 lbs/ft.

I most admit at first I was not crazy about the looks of the new SIR---but it just grew on me--so different than everybody else's car.

Just my .02$

I had to re-read that part again about making more torque at lower revs because i missed the 'any other civic' bit :rofl:

that's a beautiful car ya got there. I was considering one when i bought mine but i couldn't justify to spending the extra 3 grand for it. Congrats on the new car! :thumbsup:

IF you squint just a bit the Rsx looks like a SUnfire-----ug!!!

[sl888]

I love my SiR. Call me nuts but I bought the damn thing without test driving it at all! I wanted the blue but settled for a silver. The interior is what got me though, the dash shifter and those suede seats :drool:
