2005 Acura RSX - High Quality Fun Car

My Acura RSX Type-S is one of the best cars I've ever owned. It's small and 2 door which is the perfect size for me, but it's also a hatchback so when I put the back seats down there's a lot of room for cargo. The car has over 100,000 miles on it and it still drives well and everything feels tight. It's got a sporty OEM suspension which is great - I like feeling like my car hugs the road and is well able to take a fast corner. This car makes me feel confident that I can drive in just about any way I wish and it will respond perfectly. Although it's an Acura, it doesn't have a lot of luxury features, which I am very happy about. I dislike cars with tons of buttons and electronics everywhere.

Story

At one point, I transported about 20 boxes full of heavy books in this car. I had the backseat pushed down to fill up the entire cargo area and then I had the passenger seat filled with about 4 boxes as well. I was shocked at the amount of space that the car actually has.

Pros

My favorite features are the exterior design which is sporty, small, and even though it's 10 years old it still looks "in style". I also like the sporty suspension and the sportier engine that all come stock, right out of the factory. It allows me to feel like my car is a bit sporty without me needing to plop down extra money on engine and suspension upgrades.

Cons

There's not much that I don't like about this car, but if I could change one thing it would be the leather seats. I do NOT like leather seats and I feel like sporty cars should not have them because they make it too easy for your body to slide around if you're driving hard around corners. I also don't like the leather because it burns my legs in the summer and freezes my butt off in the winter. I would prefer a nice cloth seat.

2005 Acura RSX - Reliable.

Some of the things that I like about my car is that its around 150,000 miles already and I haven't had any major repairs just the typical replacement of worn out parts. I love that even though its a 2005 car the appearance of the car holds up to the likes of the modern cars today. Some of the dislikes would be first that its a cop magnet and what this means is you will most likely get pulled over by a cop since this car is known to be associated with street racing. Also the gas mileage good be better since it only gets around 22 in the city.

Story

One fun memorable story about this car is when I filled it to the max weight since I couldn't afford a moving truck to move to San Francisco. So the fact that it could take a huge load through mountain paths was very amazing to me and speaks on how reliable my car is.

Pros

Some of the positive would be that there is air conditioning and heater so on those hot summer days you stay cool and in those cold nights you stay warm. I love how there is a power outlet for the passengers so that they can charge there phones. Lastly love how I have power door locks and windows makes my life a lot easier in terms of working those functionalities.

Cons

Some of the negatives for one it is very loud in the car once you get into the freeway so you will hear everything such as wind noise. The car is a sports cars so the shocks on the car are very stiff so you will feel every little bump on the road which makes for a very uncomfortable ride.
