I posted this in the acura newsgroup earlier but wanted to know the honda
people's side of it too.

Thanks,
John

The RSX looks cooler anyways...
regardless of power... but if you're a real racing fanatic then it's another
story...

They're virtually the same car as far as I know. The rsx is based on the
civic. Just like the integra was almost the same as the civic, but with the
acura touch.

well, depends on what model, if your'e talking bout the type s rsx then the
engine is different as well as various suspension components. The RSX has a
"real" vtec version while the civic si has a toned down version

Go with the Si. The RSX has a stupid PLASTIC intake manifold. Otherwise
they're pretty identical cars and share MANY of the same components.

Also you can get the Civic SI for about 8,000 less than the Type-S and if
you wanted to it would only cost about $4,000 to install the Type-S engine
and 6 speed tranny into the SI
