I bought my 2002 rsx-s for 8,800, already pretty well modded. Why drop 5-7k on a swap, when you can spend a little more and have a equipped rsx? Its honestly dumb to drop so much money into a older car. Dont people see how hard of times people have selling their cars for 10-15k?

If anything, wait til you got the cash right, and for 6-8k you can easily get a k-swapped eg/etc, but then again, why not just get the rsx?

i assume some people don't want another car note others i would assume dislike the look / feel of a rsx ... others just like something to tinker with

Whatever floats peoples boats. I figured people would catch on by seeing the guys that have such hard time selling k-swapped cars. People just dont have the cash laying around to buy such old cars, even if they are k-swapped and fast. Economy is in the shitter.

I always get the same shit. Like when I swapped my automatic for a 5spd. People told me to just find a 5spd to buy. Screw that. I love my car and always will! In the end, it's all in what you want to do with the car you own.
