I use to have this car. Only thing I didn’t like were the brakes would fade after a while and no torque. Otherwise it was a great all around car. It was also quite inside. I now have a 2006 TSX, better car but only things I don’t like are premium gas and mpg city.

Totally agree, the brakes are kinda crap even before it starts to fade. For more torque, I prefer driving it in manual so I can keep the rpm high :)

i just took my 20 year old 2004 rsx base into the canadian rockies on a 2500 km journey. the vtec was amazing to experience at 140 km+/h going up the steep inclines. i rarely drive this car that fast and having endless highways in sight for the rsx to go 120 km+ for hours at a time was great for cleaning up the internals of this 220k km mileage car.

I cannot for the life of me find a decent RSX, even in auto. There's one that's pretty much stock, 136k miles, silver, but with a cracked windshield, dent on trunk, and faded roof/ trunk paint. Guy wants $4000 for it, lowest I could bring it down to was $3800. Wouldn't mind $4000 if it were in good condition but then there are others who want upward of $5200 for theirs in decent condition. I've seen Type S's for that price but I don't want Premium or dealing with a manual in LA traffic for now. Just a commuter for work so I can maximize my savings.
