Don't know yet. We simply put down a deposit. As soon as they get a VIN # we can do the contracts.

No, we haven't driven the '06 Si, but there really isn't any need to. We know that it is going to be better than the '05 Si, and we've driven one of those before.

Exactly. Its a RSX-S with 10hp less. Funny thing is it may be faster than an RSX-S cuz it should weigh bout 100 lbs less. Will depend on the gearing.

I dont know 06 si might have an advantage over the rsx because of that lsd, unless rsx's are coming out with lsd's to.

Limited slip diferential eh? Never driven one of those, must be fun.

So, what's the name on the Si's? I'm guessing...$21-$23K maybe?....

What's the name, or what's the price? An '05 Si sells for $19,835. I'd imagine an '06 will be under $21K. It can't be any more because then it will cost about as much as an RSX-S, and that can't happen.

RSX-S' don't have LSDs. However, ITR's do. Let's think about this more:

'06 Si:
200 hp
TBD tq
2800 lbs (est)
LSD

'05 RSX-S:
210 hp
140 tq
2840 lbs

If the gearing is nearly identical, I'd give the edge to the Si because of the LSD. I think it is all going to boil down to the gearing.

Before you go tryin to set me straight, make sure you have your facts straight. You are wrong. No US RSX-S has factory LSD. Period.

There are a number of different options concerning an LSD: ITR, Mugen, Quaife, etc. However, the bottom line is RSX-S' (02-05s) do not come with factory LSD.

For those of you who don't know, Honda won't be unvailing the '06 Si until SEMA in Las Vegas on November 1-4. Dealerships wont start seein the car until late November to early December.

Can't wait to see what the actually production car looks like. Honda says it will retain 90% of what the concept car had.

Where did ya see it? I am friends with a Sales Manager at a local Honda dealership--he and I used to sell cars together. Anyways, this past Monday he got to go somewhere up in LA and attended a seminar that talked about the Si and then he got to drive it. He wasn't given any brochures or anything because Honda wants to wait until they officially debut the car in November.

I put down $1000. Once they have a VIN # for the color we want (silver) we can go sign all the contracts. Then when the car comes in it is just a matter of them cleaning it and handing over the keys.
