Need Some Buying Advice

Honestly I know nothing about an RSX. I currently drive a '06RL. A young friend of mine wants to seriously consider either a RSX or a TL. What year of RSX was the best and what should I look out for when I am going to buy one? What is the difference between the RSX and a TL?

Anyone have a nice RSX for sale that is well maintained, I would be open to hearing from you. Send me a private email and describe your car.

What generation TL? That'll help people compare a little bit better. I don't have much time to post, but figured I would chime in breifly

RSX:
4 cylinder
Smaller
two doors
type-s is 6sp manual (comparable to a civic si, if you've driven one)

TL:
v6
four doors
type-s can have auto (2G TL) or 6sp manual (3g)

I would also consider a TSX or even a CL (Type S)... Between those four cars, you can get every combination of doors, engine, and transmission that you'd like.

If you ask more specific questions, I'm sure you'll get just the answer you're looking for

It depends what he is looking for.

RSX Type S
-Sportier
-Light (1000 Pounds less than a new TL SH-AWD)
-2 Door
-Lots of Trunk Space because of a hatchback

TL
-Stock Vs Stock Faster if you have the SH-AWD

I currently have a Short Ram Intake, Racing Header, Exhaust, motor mounts and I can beat my friends TL SH-AWD with a CAI.


So overall, RSX is sportier, funner, but the TL is more luxurious and better for families.
