Overall this is an excellent vehicle. I have never had any problems with maintenance in the seven years that I have owned the vehicle. It has a great look, smooth lines and fantastic feel to it. I got the model with a stick shift and love the power the car has, accelerating in and out of turns quite nicely. It has a lot smoother clutch than most other cars and is great for anyone learning how to drive on a stick. The only problem is driving in cities like San Francisco with lots of hills, but fortunately the car is compact enough to fit into just about any space. The car gets excellent gas mileage and while I only use premium I do think it adds the to the overall performance of the vehicle.

Physically, the Acura RSX looks good, is small and therefore easy to handle in the city and in busy parking lots. With proper maintenance, the vehicle has never given me an emergency situation on a roadway and feels extremely safe when I drive my family around in it. I've never had to worry about the performance of the vehicle and I anticipate that it will be with me even after 200,000 miles.
