SS SC VS RSX type S

found a Type S willing to race, we were rolling at about 40 first run and i accidentally had it in 3rd. He jumped on me by like a car until i downshifted and caught up to him at like 110. As i wuz passing him we shut down, and he told me to do it again. This time i wuz in second gear and immediatly jumped on him by about a car and wuz pulling little by little until about 120. then we did it out the whole, despite my horrible launch, i ended up in front of him and pulled about 1 1/2 cars. I wuz actually impressed by it, thought it woulda been a little easier but still came out on top.

Great kill!

It must have been a real hot and humid day? Thier not that fast of a car in comparison to a S/C SS. Before the blower on my Focus, I had a few good races with a budies Type S. I was running high 14.s, low 15.s at the time. Modded yea, but no blower yet.

Nice kill! Improve your driving and the victories will be much more rewarding! 2.5 to 3 car lengths is what I can put on a stock Type-S. Be safe!!!!

Listen. sizzle. I have no personal beef with you, but if your entire day consists of finding forum threads and doing your best to start pointless little arguments, then you need to find somethin better to do with your time.
this is the 4th time in as many days you have done it with a post of mine, and having a quick look into your post history shows that you do it on every second post you make to just about everyone.

Im all into open opinions and all, but for gods sakes back the **** off.

If you honestly think an RSX-S is good value for money thats GREAT im happy for you.
Myself, i think they are overpriced.
and we can just leave it at that.


now move along.

I was just curious as to why you had the opinion of them being overpriced... maybe you realized it is slightly bigoted hence your reaction above^^^?

nah i just realised that your one of those people who just cant help trying to get a rise out of people and im just trying to stop the thread getting hijacked by a stupid argument.


You should try to be less argumentative and confrontational.

fortunately for you, the Internet is very forgiving for those traits. Anonymity is a wonderful thing isnt it.

fortunately for me, another wonderful thing about the internet, is the ability to Ignore anyone you want.


No hard feelings. but consider it the last time ill pay attention to you.

Good evening.

Depends on things like year end clearance and dealer incentives and just how hungry your dealer is that day.

Yes that is all true, but the FACTORY MSRP is abotu $24k. That is the standard to which the puiblic judges how much a car costs. Any other price is individual and unique.
