I always loved the RSX-S. My friend had a slightly modified 05 RSX-S. I drove it numerous times and it was a BLAST.

Have fun with it and please don't wreck it.

Mod it slowly. Do NOT rice it out. Don't go with cheap stuff!

NEVER, I hope I don't wreck it (not from reckless driving, just from learning manual) I will be modding slowly, I plan to drop it first in the summer, I would like a set of Skunk 2 coil-overs.

I wouldn't buy it. When I worked at Toyota, one of the techs prepped a new broken in tC with all these TRD goodies. He has a E30 and an E36 M3 that he races in the BMW CCA. So he took it for a 30 minute drive, and he couldn't stop laughing at slow the car was. The Scion tC isn't a fast car, and I wouldn't waste my money on it

Powershifting is to detrimental to the motor and tranny to even bother attempting.

I know it is, but I might give it a try someday if I lets say go to the track.

02-05 RSX was SSM, only the 06 was ASM. Yes, this means the refreshed 05-06 RSX came in both silver colors.

There is actually a lot of space in the hatch, I barely use any. The car is nice but I'm going to sell it for sure once summer comes. I'm not happy with the ride quality for ohio roads, no heated seats suck ass and the leather is sooo hard. I would really like an AWD car because last night Thank God there was no car by me but I completely spun out going like 20mph in a slight left hand, the car has NO traction control only ABS it's scary.
