2002 Stock RSX Type S w\ minor scratch on bumper, oem foglights and spoiler, everything else stock and clean for $18,000-$18,500.

Granting that you had the money for either one, which would be a better deal? Pros and cons for whichever one you choose?

Test-driven the Si is faster than the RSX-S stock, but the stock RSX-S outhandles it and rides a little better.

 

Neither.

 

Neither, you can defintely get something else.

 

The SI sounds like someone elses headache, if anything go stock

 

something better, but out of the two the RSX

 

I was thinking the RSX-S, because the KBB private party value is approx. $21,500

So far, RSX-S 1, Si 0.

 

Neither, buy a Nissan!

 

DreamRWDSE-R Which Nissan are you talking about?

To everyone else who voted neither, what car would you buy for around those prices, assume you're looking for a newer car, and the oldest you'll go is 2000.

 

You didn't say that you wanted a 200, if that's the case i would get the SI.

 

2000 or newer, my bad.
