The first RS that came out is the special edition model of the 99-00 Civic. It's in bright yellow green color, has a chrome dashboard and RS stickers on the bottom part of the rear doors. Everything else is the same as a regular VTi.

The RS version of the current model Civic came in black. It has a duck spoiler, SiR-style mags (but not chrome) and only in manual transmission. It also came with airbags and ABS unlike the VTi.

i had the RS when I was still in Manila for a bit... it came in Black and Silver. I had the Black version. The brakes sucked big time... but it was quite perky and fun to drive.

Mine was the 2003 model...

The 2002-2003 RS also had bodykits. Yes, all mechanicals are the same as the VTi.

yes it had ABS... but i felt it wasn't powerful enough to stop you at high speeds quickly...
i can't recall if it had a disc (front) and drum (back) configuration or it was all disc. i think it was the former thus it wasn't as good as a full disc configuration.

How fast does it go? 0-100? top speed?
