Hi guys,

I'm new to these forums and am currently in the market looking to purchase an Acura RSX
2002-2003. I would like to know if there are any specific issues with
these models that go wrong or anything special I need to be looking at
when purchasing this car? Thank you.

Regards,
Om

can't go wrong with any model of acura, especially rsx or integra- i have family and friends that have them.. for ex. this one guy i know has had his legend for like 6 years, drove it too and back from california more than once.. this car is about to turn over 190,000mi and still runs perfectly fine..
if your looking for a car that doesn't take much maintence, an acura and or honda would be something to look into..you can always make upgrades and modify parts.. On the other hand, if you are looking for a car that you would need to repair frequently, get a VW.
i've had my rsx for a year and i tear it up alot, no problems yet, still runs good and strong... frequent oil changes are always wise
i wouldn't recommend an acura if it wasn't a good vehicle..

Yeah I'm the same way wit my 04 RSX I push it hard. The only bad thing is that if u launch at high RPMs u will sit there and spin through gears. Oh and the torque sucks ass on the car. But other than that it's perfect.
