Acura will offer its first Factory Performance package for the RSX Type-S at dealerships nationwide beginning in early 2003.

The Factory Performance package features track-tuned shocks and springs that lower the car by approximately one inch. These shocks and springs combined with lightweight aluminum alloy wheels, 17-inch high performance tires, slotted brake rotors and performance brake pads give the RSX Type-S razor sharp handling, reduced body roll, increased cornering grip and enhanced braking performance. A rear wing spoiler, an under-body spoiler kit and an interior trim package featuring a Factory Performance shift knob and badging, give the car an aggressive, high performance look.

The RSX Type-S Factory Performance package includes:

High performance, track-tuned shocks and springs Slotted brake rotors and performance brake pads Lightweight 17×7.5 inch alloy wheels High performance tires (225/45VR17) Factory performance rear wing spoiler Under-body spoiler kit Metallic look interior trim kit Factory Performance shift knob Factory Performance badging
