Yeah, I should get some opinions on their reliabilty from the owners here and how they are on gas (I'm guessing not good). I'll be driving from downtown to bby almost everyday.

IMO dont bother with the rsx-s unless comfort is more important than the fun/handling/modability/affordability/looks(imo) you get with an integra/older civic. (owned both)

The rsx sucks in the rain/bumpy corners- so all the time in vancouver. The back end is way to twichy and the wheel hop/traction was a PAIN.(this with an aftermarket lsd).
On top of that the insurance is ridiculous for what it is.

A well kept civic/integra with a motor swap > itr (unless you're tracking/keeping the itr 4ever)
You should have 4/5k left over atleast.
Thats insurance/gas for a cpl years or a whole lotta fun.

personally i dont like vw.

they arent going to be reliable.

neither are mini coopers. They drive nice, but they have a typical electrical powersteering system that fails and will cost some thousands to fix/replace.

If you want euro then get a E46 BMW.

Any opinions on just buying a cheap ass EK9, popping in a B18C5 in it and lowering it over some 17/18s? Think it can be done under 12?
