Acura RSX Type S - One Take

[@altern8ive]

folk complain about owners not letting matt speak, folk complain about owners not speaking enough. guess there's no pleasing people. thanks for sharing your car sir.

[@antep6157]

Half of the comments are about the owner(mocking) and that's sad. Show some respect to the guy. You guys are really big douches. #respect

[@Revitalyzed]

+CroatianZ 370 Well.... that's the internet (unfortunately) for ya...

[@antep6157]

Well yeah it pretty much sums it up for how people are nice to other people who are different

[@zeytunci1]

+CroatianZ 370 cant fix stupid my friend.

[@vladbilyy6652]

Lol, while I do agree with everything you said but...the # ruined it.

[@jasonelliott9762]

yea, theres some shitty people out there. Much respect to the dude for keeping excellent care of a great car.

[@Zygrene]

Underrated car in my opinion. I drove a non Type S and loved the hydraulic steering rack. Tons of feel without being too light. I would love to review a Type S for my channel.

[@mowcee1]

I always loved the RSX, it is a shame Acura stopped production.... just like the Evo, the RSX could've kept improving/evolving... maybe they will bring it back.

[@mahadragon]

Honda introduced the Civic Si for 2006. They thought the RSX would compete with it so they killed the RSX.

[@Swish165]

Honda discontinued the RSX as they saw the 2006+ Honda Civic Si is its successor. Tbh the Honda Civic Si and the RSX are essentially the same car just that the Civic has some minor improvements and more features such as an LSD and DBW.

[@aseeds7785]

@@mahadragon My question was that why did they had two cars that were so close together in the first place? They also had the si 2004-06 too. I mean to a honda/acura person they'd love that. I certainly like more choices, but on their end. On the flip side, the rsx could had been a good v6 awd hatch coupe or even a rwd car.

[@neelparmar6690]

I'm not sure why you guys are mocking this guy for his voice, it's not something in his control and all of these negative comments are just as bad as bullying. All I'm wondering is why he wanted to do an interview in the first place when he's hardly engaging in the conversation at all...

[@PresidentGuevara]

They need to bring these back holy shit this car is so beautiful.

[@neelparmar6690]

Hondas today are just not as pretty as they used to be. They've replaced smooth, clean designs with jagged, hard lines which just don't look as good. The old NSX is much prettier than the new one for example.

[@JaceCrozon]

Got my 05 rsx type s about 2 months ago and I absolutely love it

[@Revitalyzed]

Looking at the comments before the video and I already knew what was coming. A lot of you make fun of the guy for being shy/nervous/whatever, but most of you 1. Would be as nervous just as him (just face it) and 2. Don't even have a car. So just shut the fuck up. Anyways, about the video: Really digging the all white theme and the lip on the trunk with zero badges. Looks so clean! I personally wish it had an all black interior, but you gotta work with what you got, right? FWD cars, in my opinion, are such a joy to toss around on a tight road. Some of the pulls Matt did looked really quick! Maybe that's just 60FPS making it look like that, but hearing the engine rev out and looking at road, it looked like that thing moves. Nice car, Harut. I like!

[@xMrin10se]

Don't see the comments did they get deleted.

[@jjrudey]

+Cory _182 That's what I was wondering, I only see a bunch of people talking about them.

[@Revitalyzed]

Cory _182 Probably reported for spam. I saw a number of them.

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

RSX-S is the best front-drive non-turbo car ever made, besides the DC5 Type R of course.

[@kurboyd5190]

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

[@AkiraSieghart]

+GT6SuzukaTimeTrials Acura TL Type-S

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

AkiraSieghart Is the TL Type-S faster around a track like Laguna Seca or Tsukuba than the RSX-S?

[@bfdtyper]

DC2 Type R's might not agree with your statement

[@XenomorphLV426]

He said the suspension was A-Spec. Which is an upgraded OEM suspension, designed by the same lead engineer from the NSX.

[@s50201]

Digging the tasteful body kit. Looks good man!

[@lewk937]

Thats all OEM

[@Swallowtail03]

+koukicutter Nope. Both the front and rear are aftermarket.

[@albertoc2046]

Oem front líp and rear lip

[@XxChuyoxX]

Front and rear is an aftermarket mugen kit, and the sideskirts are OEM aspec.

[@JimS870]

Really cool RSX, and it was nice of the owner to bring it.

[@livedeliciously]

I agree with Matt's comment about how the styling still holds up well.

[@Psythik]

Especially the '02-04 models. The gauges look much more modern and the teardrop headlights/taillights are incredibly sexy.

[@XCVi_MAC]

I'm tired of coming on here and seeing half the comments dedicated to the owner, no lie so many videos. Leave him alone and enjoy the car! Hate is what ruins an awesome care community. Judging another man to make yourself esteem a bit higher is some feminists shit. If you were in there position having thousands viewing you? What would you say or do I'm certain you'd be nervous too.

[@ParadoxdesignsOrg]

Honda/Acura needs to get back to its roots and start building affordable/fun cars like this.

[@MangoKev]

So glad to see a Rsx-S video, always wondered your thoughts on this car Matt. These cars hold their value well, some are still around the $15,000 range. I still can't wait to have one of my own one day...

[@traktion9]

Thanks for reviewing an old favorite, it was actually still branded as the Honda Integra back in Japan ending in 2006 and lived up to its name by introducing the new K20 engine which its block is still used today in the K24s they put in the new TL and now 2016 ILX mated to a dual clutch 8 speed auto transmission. The only drawback was it lost the dual wishbone suspension up front and added some weight but the lift back setup in the RSX is still great for hauling a lot of cargo. Luxury coupes these days are limited to the expensive Audi A5 and infiniti G35/G37.

[@NickCormierMusic]

I just bought an RSX Type-S this weekend, and I must admit, this video did push me towards purchasing it! Thank you very much!

[@brendanw3534]

Cool car and One Take! I love that high revving four banger sound and really can't understand why Acura stopped making this... Thanks!

[@stuna101a]

RSX-s have a special part in my heart. It was the first car I bought new when I was 18 and after blowing 2 engines in 2 different ones there is a kind ship that I don't have with my GTR

[@abelcastillo3494]

8600 rpm, holy crap that's s2000 territory ! speaking of s2000s , when are you going one take Matt?

[@Mariuscb17]

I had a prelude that reved a little higher than 86000. It had 225 whp it and was fast. That being said, I don't think Matt was driving the RSX correctly. He's use to a ton of on demand power. He needs to keep that thing around the 7k range to get the power. I bet that thing had more like 250 hp, not 200.

[@Casualdriver]

K20 is really a great engine... I get about 34mpg on the highway with my csx type S and it's great in the twisties.

[@Psythik]

190K mi on my '02 S; averaging 33.4 MPG (measured with the Torque Pro app) and it still runs like it's brand new with nothing more than basic maintenance.

[@mmdaniels33]

I've owned a lot of fast and different cars. (over 20 sports cars by 25 and driven a lot more) Everyone is different but personally for me, the rsx s can't be beat. Affordable in cost both running and to buy. Looks okay, not great. But it's a blast to drive for a fwd. I owned a 99 prelude sh and an 88 prelude 4ws. Those were both great fwd cars.. but highway cruising with no 6th gear and just no torque down low is definitely bothersome. I love S2000s, but they can't be driven in snow, and since I bought a house, can't afford 2 cars anymore. When I first test drove the rsx s.. first thing I thought of was a fwd s2k. It's weird because I didn't get that same feeling in the 08 si. No idea why.. but the rsx s is a monster.. k20z1 stock is a screamer and it always feels punchy because of the brilliant k20. Its the longest I've ever owned a car, and the best fwd I've ever owned for all around purposes. (second best is the probe gt, always put a smile on my face) 10/10 highly recommended. Only car I've ever given a perfect score to.

[@chrish3079]

+Noflex T-Rexx Because the Rsx is related to the Integra, well it pretty much is an Integra.

[@JMatt1]

+Chris H the acura rsx is a honda integra every else but north america, so yes you would be correct

[@chrish3079]

Larkin Matteson yes :P

[@MrZyLeXx]

Please don't call a prelude or a RSX a sports car...

[@intracosm]

MrZyLeXx please don’t pass on your mongoloid genetics

[@vortecraw4568]

Man it's got to be hard trying to keep a conversation with this guy. good job Matt lol

[@2R1V3R]

probably dude is nervous lol

[@wickeddr]

+Jaafar Farhan he was but u can tell its his personality as well

[@blvk_sky]

+VORTEC RAW Now I know what it's like for people trying to have a conversation with me lol

[@XxRoflcoppterxX]

As a fellow RSX type s owner i can say I was very excited to see this in my Subscriptions :D

[@tonyovermyer5368]

This is what makes me give lots of respect for you Matt. Even though you get to drive tons of fast, exotic cars, you still love and appreciate all the cool Hondas. Good on you Matt, if only every car guy were like you

[@brostinkles1]

i've got the RSXs slightly older brother (a 5th gen prelude) and I love it. It's not quite as comfortable inside without the acura badge, but the h22 is just as fun to rev the nuts off it

[@tommyistommy]

I have watched all the one takes and the whole time I was waiting for you to do a Honda with "real" (intake and exhaust profile) vtec engine, I figured you would really enjoy it based on your previous reviews. Hondas have a well deserved poor reputation in the automotive world but a proper dohc vtec Honda has this playful and enjoyable experience that's hard to describe. I've owned much faster cars, but I always enjoy ripping off shifts past 8k in a Honda, using the awesome gearboxes and just enjoying the responsive yet still comfortable suspension of an older Honda. My first car was a 1995 Prelude Si, I bought it for 500 dollars with 170,000 miles. I swapped in an H22A in my garage in 5 hours, did some suspension modifications and just drove the hell out of it. Earlier this year I sold it to a friend of mine, it now has 305,000 miles and is still as tight, quick and responsive as I remember. This video was just a reminder of how awesome Honda used to be. What the hell happened!

[@WhiteCharisma]

Yes! When my brother owned an 05 Type S, it was pretty damn good! I try to aim for that kind of comfort and performance with my Accord build. It's a damn shame that many RSX Type-S owners are all "camber-gang" or "stance nation" because the car is damn good! I love the way it handles, a few that go out to the track or auto-xing with me are sooo damn fast! Not quite as good as the Integra Type R, but that's a hard bar to overcome. Great review!

[@Underpantsniper]

That is a beautiful looking RSX-S. Super clean.

[@SirRoadkillGaming]

have you ever had someone tell you to slow down during a one take? like one you couldnt post cause they got angry or annoyed?

[@TheSmokingTire]

Only two people have ever asked me to slow down while in the car with me: my mother and Mr. regular

[@McAdamSandwich]

+TheSmokingTire "Mr. regular" - what car was this in?

[@BCJDM]

+Adam Terry Matt Farahs million mile lexus

[@JEZZ7]

+TheSmokingTire Figures. Mr. Regular is such a pedant.

[@anderpendragon]

+Brok - Anyone who offers their car to Matt, for a one take should know that he's going to push it very hard so that he can accurately assess its performance/limits.

[@The_Osprey]

I've owned a shit ton of Mercedes sedans but my DD now is an '08 Acura TL. I have to say that you would have to work really hard to beat it. The interior is classy and functional. The ride is sporty. The chassis very well sorted and it looks good. I didn't go with OEM spec tires because I drive so much for work. I went with some LRR tires that don't have as high a speed rating as recommended but they are pretty damn good. They're quiet and I'm getting 26.5mpg with the a/c on driving mostly highway at an 85mph pace. I do use Mobil 1 0-W20 oil as well. Acuras are hard to beat in any category. I may go for a model with SH-AWD next time I'm in the market for a car.

[@savethehondas7348]

I’ve always wanted a type s, and I finally pulled the trigger just the other day, and bought one. I’ve owned alot of cars, mainly Honda’s. The rsx is by far the best. It has a timeless design. I love it.

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

Championship White with white wheels. Man, I do love that! Gorgeous car!

[@Stantonv]

+WikdSeafood My 2005 RSX-S has premium white paint and I presume the 2006 is the same. I do love the type r wheels!

[@XxChuyoxX]

Premium white pearl. Not championship white.

[@kristiansvalland4595]

I have a 2003 RSX Type-S and it's pushing 164k miles on it. It still gets a lot of looks, drives like it's brand new, and can still put a smile on my face on nice windy mountain roads over here in Westchester (your old stomping grounds if I remember). If you ever visit your family in CT, I'd let you take it for a spin.

[@KapteinFruit]

Dude has a nice, clean ride. I dig it. :)

[@JtaagHD]

Keyboard warriors annoy me so much, he seems like a cool dude, not everyone has to be so out there. All you gotta know is he is a car enthusiast so you can relate to him, give the guy a break, love your car man if youre seeing this, i got a Type-S also! Cheers

[@lbryanyangl]

I’m glad I have one of these, especially as my first car. Definitely never giving it away and keep it for collection when it needs to sit in the future.

[@HAPPYSUMMEREVERYONE]

TheSmokingTire is a legend.. keep the great content coming bro!!!

[@marlo916]

There aren't enough reviews about the dc5 chassis. This is a car the auto journalists have really slept on that only those in the tuner community know about. It's reliable, affordable, economical, comfortable, sporty yet classy and subtly styled, the hatchback is super practical with full folding back seats, and it rips! It makes the perfect first car. I'll never get rid of mine :) I guess I'm biased, but I truly believe this is the best entry level compact.

[@SokeSleezy]

I absolutely love how he's driving this car as well as the route he used. Wish he drove this road more!

[@jscricca]

@TheSmokingTire I recently sold my 05 with 150k for some cash and a 91Miata. I drove mine from VT to CA towing Uhaul trailer way over the 1000lb towing limit. The thing never missed a beat and still managed 30 mpg. My dad had the car for 10 years and never replaced anything other than wear and tear items. Watching this really made me miss mine and revving the snot out of that gem of an engine. It is such a shame they stopped making these!!!

[@sneakerknockerz702]

personal favorite production car, my first love in the car world

[@XenomorphLV426]

Clean RSX. I hate the lack of torque and LSD, but nice overall.

[@bottomlayer]

White cars with white wheels are awesome!!!!! Honda needs to bring back the 8000 rpm. In Canada, they had the CSX Type-S (rebadged 8th-gen Civic Si sedan, and their regular CSX had the engine from the base RSX). Does anyone in California have a Corolla or Matrix XRS or Vibe GT? The 2ZZ in a wagon/crossover thing is awesome as fuck! Yeah I know you featured an Elise, but to have that engine in a crossover is a really cool sleeper with utility to spare.

[@xortakiyezidi]

The Owner Is A Shy Person Plus It Looks To Be Very Early In The AM. Also It's Most Likely His First Time In Front Of A Camera Knowing The Fact That There Will Be Thousands Of People Watching. So Stop Being So Negative And Judgmental People. It's 2015 Come On!

[@SupErnaTuraL315]

I slap myself in the face every day for going with a 2014 si over a very lightly used type-s. K20>k24 all day. Coming from a k24 owner

[@popase05]

K24 are the shit to have, the chassis in which theyre found are crap. Theres nothing like a k24 dc5 or dc2

[@SupErnaTuraL315]

+Mariano Sangollo I disagree with that. Sure, more torque, but it's not enough that you don't have to wind it out. I'd trade that for an 8600 rpm redline and a much larger aftermarket. Plus the chassis is more comfortable for DDing and it bites harder in the corners

[@TheNuke95]

+SupErnaTuraL315 as a '12 si owner myself i have to admit stock yes it is less exciting but when you add an intake the vtec does come alive and combined with a hondata ecu re-flash the redline extends to 7600 and you get noticeable power than it already has.

[@SupErnaTuraL315]

+TheNuke95 I have the skunk2 intake and invidia q300 and it does sound great but I keep debating on flash pro. I know it gives you a good power gain but is it night and day or is it just another $700 to say my car is faster? Does it really make a difference in how fun to drive it is?

[@SupErnaTuraL315]

+fizzlemizzle2010 I test drove an auto brz and I agree, it didn't feel like it was ever going to be enough. Incredibly balanced but where I live it's mostly straight roads. The civic isn't any faster but it's more practical. I've been toying with the idea of the ecoboost mustang though

[@batmayn]

i really enjoyed this review. thanks RSX-S owner and Matt, Smoking tire. I run an 2003 EP3 and this review was close to home. if youre ever in the bay area I'd love to let you smash in it.

[@mauricionunez6389]

this is true haha. if I was a guest about my car I would just be spewing fun facts

[@Patrick94GSR]

Really sharp looking car. Love the (what appears to be) HID projector headlight retrofit. My 94 Integra GSR is about to hit 350K miles, and it's only died on me twice. Once in 2006 from a crappy alarm install with starter kill that fried my ignition harness (5 years after it was installed), and once in 2012 with over 300K miles when the distributor gave out. I run sort of a "hybrid" OEM suspension setup, with Koni Sport yellow adjustable shocks, OEM Integra springs up front, and OEM DC2 Type R springs in the rear. Lowered down using the Koni adjustable spring perch. Plus the Type R 22mm rear sway bar. So I get near-OEM ride quality with the lowered stance.

[@jasonparraga3391]

When are we going to see you in an S2000?! I read on s2ki that you almost made it into one at gripfest :(

[@crossfades456]

I think I saw him say in a comment in another video that he doesn't enjoy driving them and doesn't have one scheduled

[@timmietz]

Matt will have trouble fitting into a S2000, I bet. If you are over 6''2" and over 230lbs - you typically will never be comfortable in that car.

[@Swaygooy]

+Tim Tursonoff he drove a miata on the show, if he can fit in the miata he can fit in a s2k

[@jasonparraga3391]

+Tim Tursonoff If he drives in one with aftermarket seats he should not have a problem since the seat rails will be lower. We just need 10 minutes of him in it!

[@gigatron2008]

Really clean looking RSX. Very nice Decker Cyn. Bring back the RSX! If they did i'd buy one for a daily no sweat.

[@roguea987]

That was a very nice example of the RSX-S. Not into the tan interior myself; but, to each their own. I do love my high revs too, especially on the Dragon's Tail.

[@Elephant_Thoughts]

Man, I forgot how good looking the 2006 RSX was, the exterior and the interior design hasn't aged at all. This was a good looking car.

[@FrenchValleyAirport]

Really great episode, matt had a ton of fun.

[@StormAutoAdventures]

The 2005-2006 RSX Type-S was rated at 210 HP from the factory, just to let you know.

[@K20a3RSX]

210 in '05, 201 in '06 after SAE changed HP standards from gross to net.

[@jacksiscavage6265]

I own a 2002 RSX type S with 200,000 miles +. All stock. I also own a mint G35 coupe with 88,000 miles. I love both cars. If I was to sell off one it would be the G. The Ac is just so solid and about as fast as the G. The Acura is designed just so perfect and with quality tires it out performs most in in it's class if not all. Ahh, the G sounds so good and is classy and fun too but it is useless in snow while the Ac will get you home in the worst snow storms. Now that brings me to my truck. 1993 Toyota pickup 4×4. Let it snow. Best small truck ever and still looks beautiful. 200,000 + and that is still going strong! Then my Icon. 2011 cbr 1000rr. Nice!

[@StopItRyan]

[@SERVER1992]

I love this car a lot!. I honestly might sell my base 06 model for a type S in the future. Not a lot of affordable new cars catch my attention as much as the type-S does. Acura made a huge mistake by not continuing this product line.

It'd be nice to be able to hear what the owner has to say, but outside that, it's fun! Thanks JD

[@cosmicbluevox1001]

This is one car I miss the most from honda-acura. The most well built honda/acura to ever be sold in the usa, right next to the 8thcivics. its nearly impossible to find an 05-06 rsx type s now in the market, there were so few made.

[@ItsMikeArre]

To the owner of the car man great looking rsx keep at it man your off to a great start and awesome vid as always Matt

[@onyxmotorsports4755]

i own a 06 type-s and a 2015 wrx for my daily, i use my dc5 on the trackday a lot and its faster than my wrx on small track i love the high reving engine and the chassis lets out turn very well. i give people a good run on the track they cant belive that my engine is still stock. honda are great to be driven every day and go to the track the week end i will never stop to own hondas!

[@speedfiend925]

Matt, I think the problem with the Acura RSX was that most enthusiasts looked at it as a Civic Si with an Acura badge and a higher price tag. Certainly a good car but you could get the same platform for a cheaper price with a Honda badge and the Si heritage making the Acura RSX Type S redundant. ;-)

[@3spressoShot]

people still like the integra which is what this car is. really i think acura just moved away from sporty cars. acuras spirit died when they discontinued this car, up until the revival of the nsx. and they recently anounced they are bringing the type-s line up back up. hopefully we see a new integra/rsx sometime in the future

[@MistrMcGill]

I want to get my daughter this car for her first. Very good starter car. Take care!

[@wickeddr]

+Mister McGill good choice

[@MistrMcGill]

+ralph anderson the reliability, the style, I feel like it's a perfect fit. Take care!

[@Mrlolibre]

+Mister McGill yes there good cars. My 06 RSX is at 148,000 and going strong. Besides typical wear items, the only "major" issue I had was when the A/C compressor went out about 1,000 miles ago. I'm not mad though because I put a lot of strain with the AC system because I live in the south.

[@MistrMcGill]

Mrlolibre In this Texas heat and humidity, every car I've owned out here needed some type of AC work. It's just bound to happen with the extreme differences in temperatures. Super hot in the summer, very cold in the winter. Thanks for the information though, it's still a cool looking car to this day!

[@MistrMcGill]

***** agreed, the base RSX is plenty for a starter car. Once she becomes more familiar with the dynamics of driving, weather and terrain changes etc. She can then get whatever she wants on her own dime! Lol.

[@harriscumming6499]

even if it's a car I don't particularly like I still find myself watching these and enjoying them :)

[@alpinedb150]

tastefully done! miss mine. I had it in the same color with a spec pieces. Thanks for sharing.

[@himself]

Type S is a good platform to build on. Easy to work on. Light and quick.

[@patrickebrahimi1931]

Armenian owner haha... Matt it disappoints me that this and the s2000 video did not show you the TRUE potential of these cars as I have had both... For the Rsx I hope you get to drive a greatly modded one and smash hard because they take abuse and thats when you see the potential banging each gear right before the limiter and don't be scared to do a 1-2-3 gear pull smashing.. you should find a RSX with its K20 or even a K20/K24 with RBC intake manifold full bolt ons, exhaust, race header, intake w/velocity stack and a KPRO ecu tuned and I bet you will love the drive of the car.. as for the s2000 also full bolt ons 70mm exhaust and test pipe and a tune/flash you will love it.. I wish I had my s2000 still to let you drive if you even read this comment I am sure you'd have a lot of fun! Right now I bought my first ever BMW 2003.5 E46 M3 so far its a amazing car just its a vert :/

[@elguapok20]

I love my RSX-S, I will never get rid of it unless it's to someone I really trust, I do wish I could revert some things back to stock as I feel I've ruined it a little bit but it's overall a great car, great gas mileage, reliable, comfortable interior.

[@dre1507]

Yea, just waiting for the price on them to come down a little so I can pick one up for a project. K20 on boost is in my future. Good luck with yours in the future.

[@sneakerknockerz702]

me too, surprisingly mine cost me $6k in repairs over the course of a month. clean title, 72k miles when I got rid of it, don't ask me how or why but my dad and I had a new $400 fix every week

[@naste3950]

I've always been a fan of the type s models, it's nice clean looking rsx

[@iantownsend5480]

Got to love the Vtec sound

[@deftones2625]

Man i should've gotten a type s. i got an 05 Infiniti g35 six speed instead, and while a beautiful car, its jus not as fun and driver friendly as i would like. I feel very blessed to have it, but definitely getting an rsx type s next. I really need that k20 high revving scream.

[@Suzuki1776]

Great car! Love the one takes Matt!

[@jamesoconnell5974]

k20a is still buttery smooth always have a soft spot for the type s even though I had the first gen 02 still one if my favorite cars great one take!!

[@commercialking]

I used to own a 2004 RSX-S and besides the fact that it had no torque around town, it was a fantastic car! Why Acura can't continue to make a sports car is beyond me.

[@bpacheco6]

wow thats a very nice clean RSX and sounds good. tastefully done great work to the owner

[@dj80550]

Very underrated car. Timeless vehicle like the Integra, type r, and supra.

[@NFS4LFE]

RSXs are sweet as hell. My brother got a base 04 automatic and it's still really nice.

Matt Farah if you are ever near NYC I know someone with a 1992 integra GSR...kind of an unknown, but first FWD vtec honda put out. It has a new ridiculously short synchrotech gearbox w/LSD R comp tires, brakes, suspension it's clean and he would be uncomfortable if you went too slow, not fast.

[@nightmonkey07]

Honda/Acura use to make some pretty exciting cars. Integra, RSX, Prelude, S2000, NSX. I think the enthusiast/engineer guys use to run things and then the bean counters and suits took over and now look at them.

[@2R1V3R]

honda/acura will make cars that will last for another 20 years.

[@deohasslehoff956]

Manny787 it depends on what car. My girlfriend’s honda accords engine (2004 v6) was defective and her transmission went out (automatic). Honda makes horrible automatic transmission but obviously they got better over time.

[@hakeemsd70m]

I'm not so sure with the turbocharged mess that automakers are churning out nowadays.

[@TheBIGJake111]

Pretty damn cool and likely reliable car! Couldnt justify much over 5k for one though, i dont know how they are priced.

[@speedfiend925]

Matt, you need to do a Honda S2000 video. RWD, high revving V-TEC motor, slick 6 speed gearbox and perfect 50-50 weight balance would carve up the roads you typically drive on. ;-)

[@DMX-PAT]

Matt if you could could have this or an E46 M3 which would you go for, or even the best naturally aspirated cars if either of these don't cut it for you?
