The 2003 RSX Type S is a peppy, expensive-feeling but low-costing sports coupe.  An 11:1 compression ratio gives the 2.0-liter I4 200 horsepower and 141 lb/ft of torque.  Mileage is very reasonable for this much power, and is estimated at 24 city/31 highway.

The 2003 RSX Type S is loved by drivers for its tight cornering and rapid acceleration.  Some seem to have driven their cars a little too hard; they are hearing rattling noises that are difficult to replicate at slower speeds.  Then again, how can you not drive this car fast?  It's built for it.
