Base RSX...

Well, I think I might be buying a 2003 RSX (non type-s) if the deal goes through. I was wondering if anyone had any good video clips of them or if anyone knew someone with this car and modifications. I want to know which exhaust sounds the best, etc.

Thanks guys.

(And yes I searched on google and shit and I can't find a damn thing)

Why dont you get a type S? It will cost like 12$ more and will take to modifications much better. I say you wait around for one to pop up for sale ;].

I think if you want a Base RSX, you may as well get an EP3... It'll be cheaper and have a little bit better performance.

Well trust me, I would get a Type-S, the reason I may be getting the base model is because its an amazing price. My friend's boyfriend goes to auctions because he works for a guy who sells cars and there was a 2003 RSX, 5spd., black leather interior, 6-disc cd changer, spoiler, etc. with 61K miles on it for under $8700. The car is clean too! Clean carfax report, everything.

If you want the best answers go to clubrsx.com. I used to own an 02 type S.

^^True that. Head over to clubrsx.com and check out the base performance section in the forums, lots of info. You really might want to consider getting the type S though, even if it is a few grand more.

+1

I mean, if that awesome deal fell through I would definitely look in the direction of the ep3. It's all up to opinions though. :shrugs:

Well, deal didn't happen. My friend's boyfriend bought her a 1998 Prelude instead for $4500 and his boss bought an RSX Type-S, I wanna say a 2004 with like 71K miles on it for around $9700. I dunno though, guess I can't rely on him... 2nd time he screwed me over.

Man it sucks trying to find wut I'm looking for up here.

sorry dude. But you can't trust auction cars for 100%
but still $8700 is the best deal.
