Which is faster rsx or tl

It still looks great, with three-box proportions that you don't see on new coupes anymore, a squat stance with rounded fender flares and even dual exhaust tips. The interior has some modern features that I wasn't expecting to see, like climate controls in the nav screen, and everything is well built and feels premium.

That tall greenhouse and thin pillars means the CL has fantastic visibility, too. The CL's V6 is awesome. It really comes alive above 5, rpm -- thanks, VTEC -- and has an excellent roar. The transmission has a manual mode that you shift with the gear selector, allowing me to keep the car in second and third pretty much the whole time. Even better is how the CL handles. The steering is linear and direct, lightening up and speed and not requiring a lot of tiny adjustments, plus it offers a lot of feedback.

There's almost no understeer or torque steer, even when flooring it coming out of a corner. The suspension is a little floaty and there's a lot of body roll, but the CL is damn fun to throw into a corner and you can really feel the weight transfer.

I wish more new cars were like the CL; there's really nothing else like it today. I've loved this generation of TL ever since it was first shown in and the design has held up extremely well. The Type S debuted a few years later with unique fascias and other sporty details like awesome spoke wheels and quad exhaust tips, with an interior that still looks modern today.

I especially love the supportive bucket seats and cool gauges. This TL has about 48, miles and, aside from a couple minor cosmetic problems, it doesn't feel its age.

While the standard TL has a 3. Peak torque comes on at 5, rpm while peak horsepower is at 6, rpm and the TL will happily rev up to 7, Acura offered the Type S with a six-speed manual but, like the CL, this one has the five-speed auto, which has great paddle shifters but can be slow to downshift.

Compared to the CL, the TL is a lot sharper. The suspension is way more planted, the steering is quicker and its Brembo brakes are stronger. While there's a bit of understeer and tire squeal, the TL has a lot more grip than you think, even despite the all-season tires. Push the TL harder and it scrambles to redline with some hilarious torque steer, but it's never uncontrollable. It's got a 2. That engine is paired exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission, one cog more than in the normal RSX.

This particular RSX is a later facelift model, which has an additional 10 hp and a sweet rear wing. The Type S also has firmer suspension, larger front brakes and perforated leather seats. Within 30 seconds of driving the RSX I'm giggling my butt off.

It's got one of the best manual transmissions I've ever used, with super-short pedal travel and a slick, short-throw shifter with great mechanical action. Max power occurs at an absurd 7, rpm and the engine gets better the higher you rev, but crucially, despite its maximum lb-ft not coming on until 7, rpm, the RSX has enough low-end push to not feel sluggish at lower speeds or in a higher gear.

It also sounds fantastically buzzy and is loud as hell by the time you reach redline. The RSX's steering is incredible, the right balance of heavy and quick with a ton of feedback and the steering wheel itself is fantastic and small.

The driving position is excellent -- as is the visibility -- and the whole interior is well laid out and usable. I love that it's a hatchback and there's even a good amount of space for rear passengers. It's fizzy, energetic and fun no matter the situation. Best of all, like in a Mazda Miata or other modern hot hatchback, even when hitting redline and running up through fourth gear, the RSX is slow enough to be usable on public roads.

While I enjoy every one of these Acuras, the RSX is the one that has me checking Craigslist to potentially buy my own. I decided to save the best for last and waiting to go out in the Integra until the end of the day was totally worth it.
