ok guys my point is you can get the extra hp seperating the 2 cars for a good price even if it is 25-30hp buddy said, this is the number seperating the cars, you are still paying alot less for the rsx and my in opinion (and that's all it is)the hp+the awd is the only thing the wrx has as far as edge goes and you can take away that edge and still have 4k canadian to spare, so the real thing you have to say to yourself is...... how bad do i want awd, and the majority of people say the rsx is more luxurious as far as all the gucci kit that comes with the type-s ie. leather etc. and the rolling start thing as it was said before, what track lets you do that? i wasn't trying to insult where you live i just never heard of that before, why even bring it up?

this is all i'm saying about this subject

I wasn't talking about a rolling start on the track, I'm talking street race like someone pulls along side of you on the highway? Don't they do that in Canada?

well technically that's not a rolling start (someone pulling up beside you). Well not to me anyways.

sure it happens but we don't take it seriously. hey man look at what i posted in the neon forum about the comparison between the svt,wrxand evo lol i'm sure everyone will lose it in there.

i'm just saying that it's not something we would put numbers to, it's all about starting from a full stop, and i know the rsx doesn't have alot of torque so it hurts it but damn she still performs nice and looks good.

I think it is personal preference. I personally would take my RSX-S over a WRX.

RSX-S has a leather interior, better sound system (who cares because we all change that), climate control, and more. It also has better gearing and better track times. Look around for a video of a DC5R and a few other cars including the NSX-T and WRX STi. You'll see the DC5R actually beat the STi on a road coarse.

Off road though, we don't have to talk about that.

But if you want to see a video and pictures of me vs a WRX in Orlando. Check this out.





and for video. It's not that great but you can see that if they get the same 60ft time as me....they don't have a prayer. Both our cars were stock.

03 RSX-S vs 03 WRX

my opinion

I was in love with RSX's for the looongest time. Id def take one over the WRX. Who cares about a little more speed, why compromise looks and comfort? Doesn't add up for me. Still better i think is the new accord. For around the same price you get the same speed as the rsx, plus a bigger, more practical car, depending on your future plans. Accords interior is a lot more confortable and roomy in my opinion too.
