very nice, the rear end looks like the 97-00 1.6ELs. Those rims look nice too. I like it better looking than the Civic, though the headlights scream Saturn Ion coupe. Know when will these go on sale in Canada?

From the looks of it, I'd guess it was a sedan version of the RSX.

it's just an Acura Civic.

Imho, I think that the 06 civic's rear and wheels look much better. The front is debatable.

Honestly, the csx should look more aggressive and not like the old EL.

Again, this is just my opinion.

WTF rear brake lights?! OMG... they should have left the Civic to Honda instead of duplicating an Acura version. Now the premium Acura brand will be compared to Honda and in the end with the similar specs, Acura will stand to lose its brand status.

Relax... the CSX is a Canada-only model and won't be sold in the US where it will dilute the brand status. The dynamics of the Canadian market make the CSX very popular and attractive and help to build the Acura brand there, as it draws shoppers in at a price point that is more in line with what more people can afford, who then later trade up to a TSX, TL or MDX. In the U.S., the best selling car is the Honda Accord/Toyota Camry, while in Canada, the best selling car is the Honda Civic, so it makes sense to build an Acura off of such a successful platform.

I really wish Honda/Acura would stop doing this - this is not going to help w/ their brand image. If they really wanna be taken seriously as luxury makers, they need to stop rebadging cars - especially not a Civic. Even Lexus has said they are going to stop using Toyota platforms.

@ the very least they could have done a better job of disguising that this is a US Civic. Hope it sells for them.

Quoting again. The Canadian car market is much different from the US market.

I wonder if you can buy one of these in Canada and bring it back to the U.S.?

Then slap some "H's" on it....instant JDM! Haha!

But, IMO I like the front better than it's USDM counter part. But I like the USDM rear.

To be honest though, if I had a USDM Civic I'd prolly head to Canada just to purchase this front end. :lol:

This JDM Civic/CSX is also sold in Taiwan. I wish the the USDM Civic looked more like the JDM version, but I still can't get over how ugly the dashboard is with the dual layout.
