#1 of 1 2002 RSX vs. 2002 Honda Civic-Ownership questions by mprint Nov 10, 2008 (7:03 pm)
Okay so I'm buying one of these used models and had some questions about the ownership costs? How reliable is each car and are the typical repairs reasonable or outrageous? I recently totaled my 2000 VW Gti VR6, that's why i'm getting one of these. The VW had extremely high repair bills and i'm really looking to avoid that this time. I was pretty dead-set on getting the RSX, but someone I know told me that repairs to the RSX would probably bankrupt me. Can this be true? I didn't think so, but I wanted to get some owner's opinions. Any help would be great.
