2005 Acura RSX Reviews, Pricing & Specs

This is the smoothest car I have ever driven. The transmission feels like silk. It is fast as hell and still can put down 30+ miles to the gallon if I don't drive it like a maniac. But what fun is there in that.

Love this damn car! handles great never have any mechanical issues. Is fun to drive and takes a beating no matter what. Best car for the money I have spent. Just wish it was a little smaller on the body side of it.

I owned this car before my 04 STi and it was a great car all around. I got it automatic for commuting and I love how comfortable it feels/drives, but it lacks the power I like to have in a car. The 160 HP is not horrible, but I always had to wonder if I was going to be able to pass someone....not fun.

I love my car! Its fast, sporty, handles great. Great on gas. Triptronic is great if you get bored while driving and like to drive standard. Would only trade my car if I had lots of money and could afford a Nissan Gt or something better!

This is a great all around car. It is surprisingly spacious when needed, especially for luggage when you lower the rear seats. Its also very fun to drive when you hold out gears to over 8000 rpm. The gas mileage is also close to 30 mpg.

over all i enjoyed having and driving this car. it had power where i needed it, it was reliable, and the handling seemed to have no end. this car amazed me and exceeded my expectations minus the lack of torque however the top end speed made up for it

i like everything about this car .... looks .... sound .... driving ..... it's a nice car for anyone looking for some sporty fun while driving. as i stated the back seats are small but since i'm the driver it's not a big issue. good gas mileage ....

This is by far the funnest car I have ever driven! I am already a lead foot, and this car just increases that capability lol. Handles quite nice around the turns, is real quick on the roads, and is damn sexy! The mileage can be pretty good if you're not constantly speedy while also being in stop & go traffic. The interior is also just as nice as the exterior with the all black leather - black on black is the best.

Give it up for Honda/Acura...One of there bests cars produced thats not a civic come on now, we got the NSX, the S2000, Integra, and now the sexy girl getting RSX. Fun car to drive on back roads with twists and turns, handling is good, leather interior is nice. It has good gas mileage and the maintenance is nice. Nothin more to say

great car, loved driving it... just not in the snow

love the car. tons of aftermarket support. great ride quality, power comes on smooth, vtec engagess very nicely, the transmission is very sound and smooth (of course). suspension and handling are very even and predictable. just can't say enough about this car.

Very nice car for the price. Essentialy a Honda, so very reliable. Easy to mod.

very unique car. it has premium wheels and of course a 6-speed manual trans.

I got my RSX as a gift for my graduation, it was supposed to be a daily driver, but the way the car is built leads me to believe otherwise. It corners really well, and the build quality is up there.

Maintenance costs are average, except my driver's side power window died and I was told that it would cost $350 to fix it. They said the parts for the Type-S window motor & regulator would cost about $300. This was not a dealer quote. There are some blind spots which make it difficult to see, especially when you're in a median and trying to pull out into traffic. Overall it's a great car to have if you don't have to deal with constant traffic and you don't plan on having more than 1 passenger. The look of the car is very sporty and stands out.
