It is obvious this guy is just trying to play up the RSX-S so that someone will trade him for it. Putting lipstick on a pig so to speak.

My wife has an RSX, it is a great car. However, in that genre the new Civic Si is a better car with a lsd to boot.
Im just acknowledging that the s2k and the rsx are different cars with different purposes. The s2k is a purpose built performance rwd sports car while the dc5 is a fwd grocery getter hopped up on on a k20 ivtec engine. in short s2k>rsx-s

But there might be some people who don't have the money for a sports car anymore and just need a more practical dd without sacrificing vtec, and need to change their priorities

The only thing Im criticizing is the lack of horsepower gains you get from an s2k. I see some dyno charts where thousands of dollars worth of boltons will only yield 200 whp from the f20c

You really sound like the S2k isn't for you then. Three pages of this is enough I think.
