What is the Acura RSX's top speed?
Is the Acura RSX a fast car? I’m trying to buy a new car for my son, who just got his license, and I don’t want him to be able to race his friends in the streets. If I can find a slower car, I’m hoping it will discourage some of the dangerous behavior.

It’s very nice of you to get your son a new car! The
Acura RSX
has a top speed of 140 mph, which is pretty fast for a car of that size. If you’re looking for a slow vehicle, the RSX probably isn’t the one for you.Some other vehicles to consider that are highly recommended for young drivers include:
- Subaru Forester: top speed 127 mph
- Nissan Altima: top speed 130 mph
- Mazda 3: top speed 134 mph
Another way to ease your mind a bit is to make sure you have a good insurance policy in place. Check out the
