Re: Bye Bye EL, hello CSX!

It's a welcome feature, however there are drawbacks to all this fun. #1 is price, the CSX starts at a rather high $25,400. Essentially your paying $26,000 (almost $10,000 more than a surprisingly well equipped base Civic) for a Civic with an Acura name.
A low-end $25k CSX is an almost top-of-the-line Civic that costs well over $20k, so the difference is nowhere near what you're claiming.

I was wondering what the EL (now CSX) would look like when the new Civic was introduced. Still not impressed with the design, but I always felt that the new Civic/CSX models looked more closely related to the "edginess" of Acura and not the "smooth curves" of Honda.
