RSX for a Loaner

Well my CL S is in for the new trans and they gave me (THANKS) a RSX Auto to drive for a loaner. Can you say POS!!!!! Bumpy, super slow and by the time my car is ready I am gonna need a hemroid operation. My last car b4 the CL S was a 99 GSR with the living shit modded out of it...and it was 3 times the car the RSX is.
Oh well guess I shoud not bitch...they are payin for it!!!

i had an auto loaner with leather seats. it was horribly slow and the seats werent comfortable at all. my friends base RSX with cloth seats and a stick is a MUCH nicer car. give the RSX a stick and its pretty nice. i find it hilarious that it has a larger turn radius than my TL tho

But it has been a while, so there is some validity to your statement.

I've gotten an RSX for a loaner a couple of times, and I enjoy the change from a luxury car to a little sports car.

RSX

The RSX isn't THAT slow. I got a loaner RSX (non-typeS) w/ leather and automatic and the power was decent. I didn't expect it to be like my CL, but it was decent and able to climb hills and pass people. I liked how the gas mileage was a lot better.

But the inside was a little too cramped for me.

I would have loved to get a RSX for a loaner...

I got a frigging Dodge Neon (4 door 4 cyl) when I brought my CLS in to get the brake light on the dash fixed

Nah, now wait a minute

I had a Dodge Stratus with a Friggin Governor on it... you want to talk about slow... My friends told me to piss in the gas tank and it might go faster... needless to say, i did not take a leak..

My 10 year old Sentra SE-R was better built and solid than this POS RSX with 18k I am driving. Its dirty, rides rough, slow, NOISY, engine squeeling, brakes squeel, map lights get stuck, car has problems starting, car is 5k overdue on oil change, 1 month overdue on license sticker. lol

Sorry but this car is a POS.
