Features, comfort and performance
As the Acura RSX cars available today are around 15 to 20 years old, they usually aren't equipped with all the high-tech features of newer vehicles. However, that doesn't mean they are totally basic. You can expect to find used Acura RSX cars with air conditioning, heated seats, airbags, and power windows and doors. While this 2-door coupe does seat four, passengers in the back seat might feel cramped due to the low roof and limited legroom. On the other hand, drivers report plenty of leg space and headroom up front. The engine on the Acura RSX boasts up to 160 horsepower, and the Acura RSX Type S is even more powerful with up to 210 horsepower.
Why choose manual?
Most people who love to drive will tell you that if you're not driving manual, you're not really driving. While the Acura RSX was made with both automatic and manual transmissions, many drivers opt for the manual transmission because it offers greater control and better fuel economy, is considered more fun to drive and allows you to make easier engine modifications. Also, as these cars are a bit older, it's important to note that manual transmissions are usually considered to last longer and require less maintenance. The Acura RSX is available with a 5-speed manual transmission while the Acura RSX Type S comes with a 6-speed manual transmission.
