What the heck the RSX Type S now has 210HP?? How come our cars lose Hp for their new model year and HOnda pumps theirs up?? Where is the JUstice?

Honda sucks!
Good thing I won't be the co-owner of my cousin's 2005 RSX.

Well I believe that the engine in the Type S is a bigger engine....one from the Accord if I am correct. But you have to remember that our cars are more "family" oriented then the Type S. Just wait for the Celice replacement to come out (hopefully the Scoin TC), and then add some goodies to it and the horsepower shall climb.  |

The RSX Type S has a 2.0L DOHC i-VTEC engine. From what I've read, they changed the intake runners and exhaust from the engine to squeak out another 10 hp. They also revised the suspension (lowered and stiffened) and did some minor cosmetic changes. I dunno... looks pretty sweet to me |

Ya it has a 4 banger in it, but see they refined it and gave it more HP. Plus the new commercial is pretty sweet.

Yeah sure it has 10 more HP, but it's also 100lbs heavier. There goes the 10 HP right there. Plus, they're uglier now...looks like a Civic.

Too bad the VIbe has nothing cool going for it..commercial wise that is. I wonder if they can keep refining the engine more so that the GT has the same power as the Base LOL.

The 2005 Orange RSX looks like a Cavalier.
