in my conuntry exists only one.. unfortunately right hand drive.. thus is necessary make a swap to become street legal. basically its a SiR with AWD system. i heard that sucks in track driving but in snowy tracks or mud, etc... it becomes alive

think about this

it haves the same... even more comfort equipment than the SiR. it depends of the optionals anyway

the engine is not the same but it haves Vtec, isn't have the same power as the B16A2 but the d15b is a good engine


also you may look at this way, the RTSi is a VTi with AWD and a lot of equipment that you can't find in any VTi but yes in a SiR... i think both cars are top of the line

i think this is very useful for not loosing grip going uphill (going to some ski center haha) ... Real Time AWD is not AWD exactly... when the front wheels start slipping the Rear wheels starts working to "stabillize the ride" if you want to call it somehow.

most of the time the car is fwd... thats why i say that in track driving this system is not very noticeable
