#61 of 2579 compact sedan by ejonavin May 31, 2001 (7:23 pm)
Not everyone wants a larger car or a coupe, but we might want all the luxury goodies.   For now, I'll just be happy with my Acura EL (Canada's replacement for the Integra sedan since 1997), but it really need some more juice like the RSX.
#63 of 2579 2.0 EL? by himiler Jun 02, 2001 (5:48 am)
I don't think that Acura would do somthing like this. They're obviously too concerned with boosting their corporate image right now, and bringing the EL to the US with a hotter set-up might be perceived as "watering down" the brand, even though the damn thing would probably be a hit. The brand definately needs a small 4-door.   There is now more info about the RSX available thru www.acura.com Not much in the way of specs, mostly pics and market-speak.

Not to belabor the point, but to me the pictures of the RSX resemble a Cavalier. Perhaps it will look more distinguished in person. And yes, although Honda/Acura styling tends to be on the conservative side, most of the styles do age well.

Yeah, depressing, isn't it? Right down to the point on the car's nose.

The exterior styling I think is pretty terrible:       But the interior is one of the best I've ever seen:     So I can't decide whether I like it or not, guess the price will be what matters.
#67 of 2579 Cavalier? by ranald Jun 03, 2001 (2:46 pm)
A little but not really, it's just the general size and shape that are similar.   I don't think the RSX is beautiful (the propertions are a little off, hood too short, etc) but it has clean, classy lines.   The Cavalier has gentle curves that don't fit together right. The overall effect makes me think of a flabby person whose ass is a bit too big.

That profile shot sure does make it look like an egg, but the rear view shows a much tighter tail than the Cavalier's. Damn! That graphite finish on the wheels looks nice--I hadn't seen that yet.   The dash is much higher than the current car's.   Too bad there are no aluminum pedal covers.

yeah, that interior is awesome! It looks very clean and appealing. The exterior is questionable for sure. I imagine the performance will be quite strong.... but I just think $24K (which is what I've heard the Type-S is going to be around) is too much for this car.

It's a wedge. The Cavalier is more of a pear. Weird, anyone who thinks the RSX looks like an egg must not like the look of Porsche's at all.
