well actually he let someone take over the lease and got a 02 type s! He swears he is gonna be smoking me... only time will tell!

In his words " the Type S is killing the cobalt in pretty much every aspect"

thoughts? comments?

 

uhh, he should know better himself no? Wait, less torque does make driving less fun right? ha ha!

 

Oh boy.... I test drove an rsx-s numerous times b4 I got my second ss/sc and I disagree 75% w/ your friend. I do like the body line and interior. Not engh to make me dislike my ss, but I did find those qualities appealing.

 

Funny he used the word "killed" since the RSX got....well "killed"

 

A buddy of mine has an RSX Type-S and has told me he kinda wishes he would have opted for the cobalt because quote "it would take me alot more money and modding to make it faster, and all you have to do is get like stage 2 and a smaller pulley, bastard"

My opinion is that your friend should have stuck with the cobalt. The RSX Type-S is a sweet ride, but not worth trading in a brand spanking new 06 SS S/C for.

 

To each there own, he might enjoy the types more

 

yes, cept speed, handling and HP

 

What was he thinking or perhaps more importantly, what was he smoking?

 

Car and driver put the type s and the ss/sc head to head and the cobalt won by a few points. I forget what they judged on and what not though.

 

i love the way they look, and the fact that the aftermarket is way up with them is nice..but the main reason i would get one----they come in white

 

hey you all cant forget about the fact that it is a 02 acura type s,,, and since it is used it probably already has money under the hood so maybe he might be able to take him

But still why would you trade in an 06 cobalt for a 02, i personally think that rsx type s sound shity with that aem intake and a full catback let alone other **** done to it

 

unless your floraday from autoweek. He likes less torque.

 

it ok let him keep dreaming... HAH

 

For a 02 Type S?! What a moron..The car has probably already been beat to **** not mentioning the SS is the same speed if not faster

 

lol dont flame me!!! i love rsx's...and after next year they will be gone. Type S's are quick cars and they are good races with cobalts. esp. if work gets done, those cars are quick quick

 

yeah well like i said time will tell. he is also one of those people fixated on having an "import" . you know those fast and furious type people. so yea. it is a really nice car though it was my 2nd choice.

 

what a blasphemer (im sure i mispelled that) he should be held down and beaten with chevy bow ties wrapped in a towel, ya know full metal jacket style

 

They compared everything inside out resale value everything. The SS won but only by a few points.

 

Acuras retain value WAAAAY better then these chevys.
