cl-s03

would ay one out there ever consider trading their cl-s for an 06 rsx-s a spec

MyAcuraCLS

I think those are nice, but no way. My bro had an 02 RSX S. Nice, but the CL blows it away imo.....

Bro, I was just thinking the same thing but as for the luxury, you wont find it in the rsx. It just seems like a really nice honda

BigLizard

There's no way I would trade power and luxury for a 4 banger and less luxury.

Our CLs have a lot of potential to blow the RSX's doors off any day.

YeuEmMaiMai

no way I would trade a CL type S for a lesser performing car........

May be for cheaper modding prices, and for a an engine that is cheaper to modify, and has endless shit to modify it with. But other than that, no.

i beg to differ, with a few bolt-ons/hondata the type-s is a beast.the heavy ass cl won't cut it in the speed/mod equasion.all around you are correct when you say "There's no way I would trade power and luxury for a 4 banger and less luxury." based on looks,style,luxury no comparison,hands down the cl wins

:edit: i wouldn't trade my broke dick tranny 1g 3.0 for an rsx.type-s or other........

CL'er 1st & 2nd Gen's

I bypassed the Integra when I bought my 1st gen CL. (Couldn't fit in it comfortably). The last time at the dealership getting my 2nd gen worked on, I sat in the RSX. Still too small for me.

No... Even tho' it's a newer car, it's still a down grade...

Now, if you were talking about low mileage ITR (to keep it in the acura family), it might be a different story...

it all depends on the person.... if you're looking for something small, quick, and fun, then yeah why not.. but i got rid of my cl-s and i still miss the shyt out of my baby

If you do it, make sure you're doing it for a gas consumption stand point. If you are looking for any kind of performance, you're looking in the wrong place when you compare it to the CL.

I considered the RSX when I was car shopping just because I'm going to be driving 25K miles + a year. Still couldn't step down that much in power.

609CLTYPES

to me i think there very close in power when modded...
i've seen members here run mid to low 14's with intake headers exhaust and ur pulley.

but on the other hand i see rsx type s's with intake, race header, exhaust, with a flash or hondata run low 14's high 13's

I've seen RXS's run 13.9-14.1 at the track.

No, you might as well get a Civic. The RSX has a horrible interior and would be a step down from the CL. The RSX should be a Honda.

Doobieman

uh lets see...

03 CL-S = 260 HP, 232 torque
06 RSX-S = 155 HP, 139 torque
06 Civic SI = 197 HP, 139 torque

Lookin at the above numbers, if you are truly looking to DOWNGRADE, at least choose the civic.

wakipaki

The stats you got are for the regular RSX i think....the RSX-S is supposed to have somewhere around 210hp

Doobieman

Oops copied the wrong stats. the type S actually has 201 HP and 140 ft lb of torque
