Why the 2006 Acura RSX?

Handling

Stock suspension offers excellent road feel, and the steering is tight enough for precise control but is still pleasant to drive. Turns are easily made without excessive braking, since there is little body roll.

Why Not the 2006 Acura RSX?

Quietness

The car is noisy at highway speed; I have to really crank up the music to hear it clearly over the road noise. Phone calls and conversations are possible, but not comfortable. (Aftermarket tires may help with this; I still have the stock ones.)

Ride smoothness

The tradeoff for the great handling of the stock suspension is ride stiffness. In San Francisco, where streets are uneven, the ride can be quite uncomfortable at times. Potholes, patches, and cracks make themselves very obvious with the RSX.

Feature availability

Do you want a nav system? Bluetooth support? Premium audio? Power seats? None of these are even offered as options on the RSX.
