This information is a little dated by now, but if you're like us
and you missed it when it was fresh, it's of potential interest.
Speed is a special "one-shot" magazine that was recently published
by Road & Track (it apparently hit newsstands in March). One of
our readers spotted an interesting blurb about the upcoming refresh
for the 2005 RSX.
The blurb basically states that the RSX front and rear clips have
been redesigned so the car will conform more closely to the "family
look". The retouched photo (sourced from a PR photo of a 2001
Integra Type R) shows a front end that resembles the Accord Coupe
or S2000. The taillights are said to have been restyled to be long
and rectangular, hanging over a thick bumper, so it looks more like
past Integras. 18" wheels are said to be a possibility as well.
From a drivetrain standpoint, the engine is said to remain largely
the same, but there is reportedly a new 6-speed clutchless manual
transmission for the car. Also interesting to note is that this new
transmission is said to have been developed for a "future Acura
TSX". In the photo below you can see a comparison of their image
(inset) to the original PR photo:
what do u all think of the new 2005 RXS?
but this look like a honda integra type r model(i mean the DC5) and
not the smaller pic
