I like it. I actually have a 2004 type-S. The only thing I did to it so far was lower it because I want to finish the mx-3 before modding the rsx. The only other thing I am doing to it is putting a turbo kit on it, but I am not going to make it faster than the mx-3 because the mx should be the faster car of the 2 that I own....lol

why do you think i'm keeping the mx-3

my fiancee actually encouraged me to keep it, another sign that she's the one.

I like RSX's they sound good and hte k20 is a sick motor. I like being original though having a mx3 with a v6, it is a cool combo that no-one else has.

The RSX is nice. I testdrove a used one with my fiance-to-be sometime back before I realized I could bring the MX-3 out of its multi-month coma. The quality of the manumatic really impressed me, especially a few days later when I tried a Pontiac G6 that seemed underpowered and overburdened in the weight department. I still prefer manual though.
Nothing feels quite like the MX-3 so far. I've been pushing it rather hard lately, now that spring is here and I don't risk slipping off the road. FUN.

have no fear. it has 3 pedals on the floor and a 6 speed tranny...

a REAL manual transmission, not this manumatic crap that exists nowadays. it's just a new way of shifting from L to 3 to D. yahoo. ho hum.

no third pedal = not manual by any means

just my $0.02

I saw a RSX with a TSX motor and trans and then a turbo kit on top of that. Some sick HP, cannot remember what. Nice enough cars, but slower than my ZE by a decent amount (the type S). I thought it would be a better race, but the usual Honda lack of torque left him behind from the start.
