only the first year of the SIR came 4 lug every year after that came 5 lug.

 

Actually, I think it was 2004 that it switched to 5 Lug. That was the year it came with 16" rims. So 2002 and 203 were 4 Lug and 2004 was 5

 

SIR, Since the RSX is premium.
SIR seats are better anyways. =P
The EP3 (or CTR) has always been my dream car.

 

i just got my ep3 lol now i gotta fix it hahahha

 

i would get the SiR just so i can say i drive the top of the line civic. cuz someday some guy would pull up to me in a rsx-s and laugh at me and i hate that **** HAHA, GET THE SIR!

 

Hopefully I get to meet other SIR drivers soon
What color are u getting? White, Black, Blue, Red, Gold?

 

Wow, the SiR overtook the RSX in the poll.

 

RSX! I love the design of the DC5 and I think it wins hands down for looks. Imo the EP3 looks too much like an egg. I like the older hatches better. Club RSX is a huge community, I'm not sure how big the EP3 crowd is.

The RSX looks good already without any exterior mods. An EP3 requires quite a few mods to look decent. Then again I'm biased

 

That's a nice RSX, but for me the SiR is still better looking.

 

Nobody's comparing the K20a3 vs. the k20a2.

Thread says RSX premium which is the k20a3.

RSX=160hp
EP3=160hp

 

I'm going to agree with every here, and say the RSX does look better stock. If your leaving it stock, go for the RSX.

If your lowering, putting a kit, and rims, go for the EP3.

 

I still think that SiRs are more rare and therefore better cars to own. C'mon who on this forum would get the car and just leave it stock? If ppl will modify the car anyway might as well get the EP3.

 

i'm gonna go with the EP3 on this one.
I've wanted one for so long.

 

As an EP3 Owner I would say go with the EP. Insurance is cheaper on the RSX but a very little amount. I have been told the reason is because it has side airbags making it a safer vehicle. Performance with a Premium is the same, the EP3 has terrible resale value, where an RSX is much better. Styling on the EP3 is much more unique. I find either you love the design or you hate it, there is no happy medium. There are FAR less EP3's on the road than RSX. Most dealerships in Ontario only ever got about 5-7 per year, at most. How many RSX's do you see on your local Acura lot right now? The EP has a excellent shifter design which is definatly rare. You want reliability, mine is an '03 SiR, I have put 130,000km since new. All it has needed for work is rear brake pads. I still have the original tires on it, which have about 100,000k. I do recommend if your purchasing one, nake sure it has the GFX kit. When I was looking for a car when I bought mine, I was originally buying a RSX had all paperwork done, they said when you want to come pick it up. I walked into the Honda dealership 2 days before that call. There it was, my 03 SiR in white with the GFX, just sitting there, I knew i had to have it!! And besides pretty much anything off the RSX can go on the EP! Best of luck..

 

sir baby!!

 

the ep3 has slower quarter mile times than the 2000 sir... whats faster..the 2000 sir or a rsx premium??

 

Who cares? Are you taking the car to the track every day or are you driving it to and from work?

 

The 2000 SiR isn't much faster than a stock EP3. Mod for Mod I'd take the EP3.

 

ummm not really from what ive read they are approx the same
good drivers managed to run 15.6

one guy ran 14.2 with i/h/e+k-pro+slicks with weight reduction tho

 

wat looks better

ep3 or 2000 sir

00 sir hands down
