Today we take a look at the Acura RSX Type S, get some driving impressions, and let you know if I think you should buy it!

Final anecdote. The Integra Type R is not bad on the street for a weekend car or even a couple hour trip. But if I was faced with a road trip or something that would require a lot of seat time the RSX's refinement is superior in that regard.
