2005 Acura RSX review from Australia and New Zealand
"Excellent Sports car with great utility and affordability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None at all!
General comments?
This car is great!
The car is great off the line and had superb acceleration with 0-100km/hr of about 7 seconds. Excellent power.
The Bucket Seats are also very good in perforated leather and hug very well during driving through those twisty roads.
Cockpit interior with red lighting look very sharp at night.
Rides are on the stiff side, but it's expected from a sport car.
Very practical and had huge boot space for various things.
Audio is also awesome with 6 disc in dash mp3 player.
The only downsides are the wide turning circle and crappy stock tires.
Overall, it is a very sporty, yet practical car.
