I would deffinatly get the new Acura RSX Type S! Them are sweet and the engine can take everyday punishment!
Hahaha....OKay.

Event he dealer told me that their are alot of people bringing them back becase of people blowing their engines. That engine is the shittiest I have ever seen.





As for the Mazda6. Don't get me wrong. It is a nice car. But i don't think it is as Sporty as they make it out to be.

if people are recommending accords and tsxs, why not the maxima? it lays more HP to the ground. and i'm sure clever nissan engineers have fix0red the handling problems that plagued the other versions (pre-2000).
Actually they haven't. Still understeers just as badly, according to Road & Track.

Oh, and I could've sworn the SRT-4 was AWD..

One of my favorite 80'sFWD car is the car I have in my driveway,,88Mx6GT turbo,

this car is torquy as hell,,I'm boosting 12psi on stock turbo and full sys, exc.for a 90Supra Turbo fuel pump,,I can beat anystock 1stgen,&2nd gen N/A,on stock boost 8psi,and even stock I can give TurboII's a good run,,Now I run 12sec.all day with my Mx6GT at 12-15psi,,The only prob. is fwd traction sucks with over 220hp....Just to show the torque on these MX6GT specs are..2.2L 4cyl,12V turbo

with 145hp and 190lbsTq, and a low compression of 8:1,make these cars live for ever and high boost can be acheived..Also when the car was stock I surprised a stock 5.0Rustang or 2,,by pulling 2full cars in 3rd gear,,and the stock top speed in my MX6GT I saw 240km/h a few times,,My favorite FWD Mazda and my Favorite RWD Mazda(rx7) look pretty fast even parked in the driveway... ...So screw those high tech FWD Hondas with no torque and cheap build quality...Keep the Old Mazda Glories alive

even better i think was the earlier sentra se-r

same motor but a less girly body style.

i drove a 93 Se-R and had tons of fun in it.

i was just telling my friend today to buy one as a DD so he doesnt put miles on his lex.

Great little car.

cheap, reliable, and fun.
