There is no such thing as an RSX-R in the US.

the Acura RSX is the same as an Acura Integra or Honda Integra in Japan. Acura just changed the name from integra to RSX to market it better. The US models only come in type S which is very similar to the Type R in Japan. Definately get the type S though. Do not get a base model cause the Type S has more enhancements than the base.

Acura type s in america honda integra in japan type r only in japan

If youre into modding get a base model with a blown engine---since youre gonna replace the shocks and motor anyways
