Okay, well I talked to my parents about buying that '99 Integra I was looking at... they refuse to help me pay for a car that is older than a 2002, so that kind of eliminates the teggie from my list of possible cars (seeing as how they stopped making them in '01 lol). Anyway, my budget is going to be around $10k max, so I'm looking for something for around there (I'd love a WRX STi, but unfortunately, the cheapest ones I could find were around $15k)... anyway, I found two cars I'm interested in: an '02 RSX and an EP3... Honestly, I'm not sure which one I want more... what would you guys get?

 

I'd go with the SI, but thats just me. It looks way better than the RSX to me.

 

I honestly don't know... I'm sort of leaning towards the RSX right now... mostly because they look sick, even when bone stock. EP3's can look amazing (when modified), but I'm not sure I like how they look completely stock. They both have K20's, so obviously they're both pretty fast... If I get the EP3, I'll want to drop it, throw a lip kit/duckbill spoiler on it, and have my wheels powdercoated bronze. If I get the DC5, I'll probably either paint or powdercoat the stock wheels either black or metallic blue (I'm thinking the blue would look awesome on a silver RSX) and keep the rest stock for a year or two (I'm probably not going to have much spare cash after dropping $10k on a new car... I have to sell my car and bike to afford the car as it is lol)

(as a side note, both cars will eventually be modified, just not for a year or two after I get the car.... Either one will be slammed and get a Password:JDM PowerChamber intake, Megan Racing header, and GReddy Evo2 exhaust)

 

rsx's are yummy imo. I hate the EP3's

 

Well for once it comes to a delima but i do own an EP3 and its not half bad as people say they are. At first I was ok just got to get used to the shifter in the dash but thats nothing now for me. Seeing as i got well over $12k to $15k(maybe more) worth of parts installed on the car and its pretty decent as far as hp now. But i cant wait to get back to the states to drive my little beast home. But it all depends what u want but u do have a goal for both so thats good. Most people come here and dont know what they want. so ur starting of in the right direction. If u want to know anything else about the EP3 just send me a PM, and I will get back to as soon as i can. But untill then laters


GO EP3

 

never test driven an rsx, but i really loved driving my friends ep3 and it was bone stock. It just felt much nicer than my sixth gen even though my d with bolt ons keeps up with it.

 

If it were me go with the RSX. But your the one who will be driving it so its up to you. Test drive both and get a feel for both cars and see what you think.

 

RSX Type-S (has to be Type-S). I'm not a fan of the EP3s.

 

well my friend has a base model 02 rsx 5 speed drove it to dc and it had ***** for even stock i was hella impressed with it i always wanted one ans still do
