Hey! I just joined a little while ago. Looking for help with my dad's car (see sig). He is also shopping around and I was just searching through posts on information (good news/bad news) about the RSX.

He's debating between an RSX or a GS-R....What do you all think?

Why not the RSX? I drove it and personally did not think it was worth allof the hype. But the price is right and he doesn't need the Type-S.

What's a good price for a newer GS-R 3-door with low miles?

Anything to watch out for? I know he wants an MTX with ABS. Aside from that he's not too sure.

I perosonally just dont like the RSX...the way it looks...driven one before but not for a long time...don't know about pricing for the gs-r...my guess is you can get one for about 7 or 8 thousand with okay miles on it...should check ebay, they always have low mileage gs-r's on there...

i took a look at the RSX-S at the Providence Auto Show... $27k!!!!!!

WAY too much money for that car.

and a base model with foggies and splash guards came in at $21k! looks like the GS-R is the more likely choice. either that or the Mazda 6.
