also mazda 3 is nowhere close to the look, feel, and psdo-prestige of Acura CSX.

Just ask anyone on the street, no one would say mazda3 is as chic as CSX

Our $1 coin is called the Loonie (since there is a loon on it), and the $2 coin is also called the toonie.

you can't do the conversion to compare the prices..

we get raped her in prices compared to the states..

the best way to compare it to is to other cars in the same price range.
so a fully loaded civic, corrola, mazda3.. are still a lil cheaper if not equal to the csx..

but on the csx.. you get a couple of more features.. so it makes it a lil more worth it.. but i still think its 1000$ too much..

Actually there's more difference then the crease in the bumper. The headlights and taillights are different, front bumper is different, paddle shifters on the automatic, K20 motor, HIDs, Leather, signal markers in the side mirrors, etc...

Yes the CSX is the replacement of the EL.
I like the looks of the CSX better then the 06 Sedans.
The Corolla looks Civic-ish
