The body style, the giant wing and all just says boy racer. Trust me when I say .. I would decide on these cars and never even bring an RSX up
Civic Si / Acura TSX / Acura RSX / Honda Accord Coupe
In terms of the price of gas and insurance, insurance on everything but the Civic will be cheaper ... and trust me .. if you have a TL/TSX/Accord gas will be cheaper because you wont be pushing on it as much. Once you drive an Si the car is set up to race wether people like it or not. I get in the car and it screams to be driven. A TSX/TL/Accord wants you to drive slow and enjoy the confort. I would go with a TSX.. almost same engine as SI cheap on gas .. without the racer feel .. more luxury !!! or .. just buy a Lexus is350 !!! mmmmmmm that car is sooo sexy .. and cheaper then a TL by far !!  |
I agree with half of this post.. You will be less likely to push a tsx/tl as much as you would a dc5 or fg2, that's for sure, but it probably won't save you much on gas because of it. The tsx has higher a displacement and the highest cr in the k24 lineup, which means that it would probably about break even with the fg2 in gas consumption.
As far as the dc5 being a "ricer," I would call an evo or sti a ricer long before I did a stock dc5. I personally would rather have a dc5 over an fg2, just because I'm a k20a2 fan and I love the body of the dc5. :shrugs:
