Decision time is getting closer. I am picking up a new car in the next couple of months and trying to decide what to do. I love the STi and was pretty much decided on it and adding a few minor upgrades (Stereo, boost controller, blowoff valve, and a set of GTN's). However, I really like the RSX as well and that would leave me about 10-12 grand for mods on the RSX. What would you do in this situation? It will be a daily driver through 4 seasons and all of the crap that a Michigan winter can throw at it so keep that in mind.

 

Cavalier..

 

 

these aren't really comparable cars...what are you looking to do in/with them?...and why aren't you buying an S?

 

 

f.w.d = bo-ring
get the evo rs, little cheaper than the sti, little more than the wrx and rsx, but the best potential of them all.

Putting 10K in an RSX will get you some serious power. Plus its an Acura, much more prestigious then subaru. Plus the RSX will be a more luxiourious ride, however like mentioned before it is FWD. But eh, I'd still take the RSX

 

Oh and the RSX looks SOOO much cooler!

 

There is nothing you can do to an RSX that will take away from the fact that its FWD. I have owned many FWD Honda DOHC VTEC's and there is absolutly no comparison to an AWD car for performance. This is what it sounds like you want. Buy the Sti. If you want a good driving car with a bit of luxo, get the Acura.
