As the owner of an 01 Prelude, the 06 Civic Si sounds interesting. But,
I'll bet the dealers will throw a big markup on the car for the first year.
If so, the Acura RSX S may be a better deal. When the V6 Accord coupe 6
speed came out, our local dealer had one on the lot with a markup that put
it over 30k. I have seen one since then -- also going at fat increase. I
am told they are impossible to get and be prepared to pay through the nose.
I suspect the new SI will be the same. If the SI is available at 20k or so,
it will be a performance bargain.
