Integra Type R or RSX type S
If you had to choose between a 2000 ITR or a 2002 RSX type S, which would you choose and why? Neglect money issues

Type r.
1)Lighter
2)double wishbone suspension
3)peakier engine(better for racing imo)
Forgot to mention that the type r will have better resale value due to the low volume.

type r, because they are more rare and in my opinon look better then the type-s. I was planning to buy a used Type-R but couldn't justify spending a little over $20,000 for a used one with 50,000 miles on it.

Seems like most people agree with me. My choice was type R, without hesitation. But my freind and all her freinds were saying RSX. I thought I was in some bizarro world.
A type R up here in Canada that's in good shape, normal mileage, would run about 18K CDN. RSX, about the same.

Type R. No contest. Had one, loved it, still miss it.
Gotta consider risk of theft in your area (I don't know where you're from) if you're getting an R. If you're in Cali, Fla, or the northwest, and you don't have a garage, you could be in for a real bummer.
...but if you can deal with that, and you want FWD all-season practicality, a hatch with fold-down rear seats, 33 mpg highway, one of the highest HP/L NA engines ever made, and one of the only FWD cars that you can rotate with the throttle...
...then go for it.

Both great cars.

The RSX is an inferior chassis, suspension, and overall platform when compared to the Integra. Give equivilant power outputs and current tires, an ITR will smack an RSX around every time. If you ever needed further proof...ask the racing teams why they race the TSX instead of the RSX or Civic platforms.
