Smile Got my 2007 RR Si

Hey everyone, I have been trolling around here for some time, and recently traded my 2003 Acura RSX-S Kinda sad to see that baby go, but I got a beauty of a car today. I will post some pics of her tomorrow.

Thanks for your help

I have things I like about the RSX-S far more than I like about the Civic Si, but the Si is a beautiful car.

Post pictures of both!!!

Thanks Skittles! The RSX lease was over, and I almost for sure was going to purchase the vehicle at the end of the lease since I loved it so much. After driving the Si, I love the way it handles and revs so much easier than the RSX. It was way more comfortable to drive, and overall was everything I was looking for. :)

Pics will be up tomorrow for sure.

Oh yeah, I love my RSX especially in the looks department. I loved the longer nose, and the little nicer materials inside the vehicle to the beautiful metallic gauges. I still feel kinda shitty about doing it. But I do love how this thing revs and handles.

BTW the sales douche didnt tell me that I got summer tires until I got home. I thought when he said it's got nice tires, I would of thought he was talking about the shitty MXM4's. I feel like an idiot since I came in with a calculator and did scratch work of math and now being taken on summer tires. Especially, when its like 27 degrees out.

Initially, I wanted a Rallye Red EX 2 door coupe with navi and a manual, but they were hard enough to find in manual, let alone with a navi.

I never really cared for how red washes out the red in the taillights, but thats a sharp color. I'm happy with my Fiji Blue, but I still wish I would've waited for one with the navi in the EX line.

Red's typically not my style, car wise, but I wanted the black interior.

Show us your RSX too!!

At first I wasnt all about the red, but in person I loved it.

Here is a thread of my RSX and my buddy's 3. I dont want to post pics right of the RSX on here, cause I might tear up a bit

Yeah, we're a little more...mature than most of the people on ClubRSX.com.

I can't believe they got on you over you mentioning the "56k Beware"

But while I believe these cars should come with fog lights standard, the RSX definately looks worse without the fog lights than our Si's do, I think.

About the brake dust, you ought to see me get on my back and scrub that crap on the inside of the rimwell off.

On big rims, that's what you have to do. If you don't, you should be riding on 14's lol.

Oh for the 56K beware was my fault at first since I messed up up-loading images on clubrsx. The pictures came out really really small, so they gave me crap.

As for the brake dust, blu was making the joke of the 07 rims being darker. I use to scrub the crap out of my rims on the rsx when brake dust would spray like crazy on the front rims. Maybe this one might hide it better or worst!

I would like to have seen the RSX and Si have fogs standard, kinda at least Mazda does that.
