Civic Si Vs. RSX

I'm curious about what you guys think...Given the choice between an Si and an RSX, which would you choose, and why? (None of that Si comes in prettier colors crap)

I'm talking about the base 160hp RSX vs. the 160hp Si. They're fairly close in price

RSX

Its just a much sexier looking hatch in my opinion, but the si has grown on me as well.

I'd have to go for the rsx just because I like the exterior styling better. Plus, I think the rsx has a more elegant/plush interior.

nindoo has a spectacular aura about nindoo has a spectacular aura about
SI with the side skirts.

The interior of the SI is really nice. Cool shifter and better seats than even the type S. I think the final drive on RSX and SI might be diff, in the fav of the SI accelerating a lil faster.

Rare car might have better resale.

RSX-S = Better engine + more luxury and luxury and looks and performance are a good combination the SI is between the normal civic and an rsx
of course the rsx is like 5k more than a SI

The Civic SI has a sportier interior check out the shifter and crazy seats. Even the interior color is racy.

Man, I should've gotten myself stationed in the UK, I would've brought a Civic Type R with 195 HP stock I believe? And shipping is free too for service members that is.
