I thought Acura had all but officially canned this car. I thought there wasn't going to be an '09 version. But the guy at the dealership said that Acura has changed their minds, and now plans to keep the car around through 2010. Also, what have until now been the exclusively Type-S wheels, are now standard on all '09 CSXs across the board.
*Note the new TL style front grille for 2009*

Do they use Imperial gallons? 42 mpg seems a bit high.
You bet, and even when they do, they are completely higher than EPA ratings, I hate it. The CSX is a nice car though, but the premium over the civic is quite absurd.

Drifting, which tends to attract poorer, more marginal men, has also been an unlikely nexus between homosexuality, crime and jihadism since it emerged 30 years ago. Homoerotic desire is a constant theme in songs and poems about drifting, and accomplished drifters are said to have their pick of the prettiest boys among the spectators.
I like the black one much better than white, but wasn't the CSX a Shelby Dodge Shadow?? Anyhoo, I actually like it, does it have the same dash as the Civic though? I really don't like the Civics dash setup.

Yes it does....
The leather is nice though....

Acura would be stupid to stop selling these. People are buying loads of these things. I see just about as many of these as I do regular Civics. And that's a lot.
I definitely wouldn't get one... but clearly a lot of people think otherwise.

Yeah, I know it's a Civic. I was talking about the standard features like leather, bluetooth, climate control, navigation, HID, all standard on the TSX.
There's nothing wrong with the Civic platform. It's a great car for what it is.
I would take a CSX Type S with LSD, tighter suspension, more engaging engine, 500 pound lighter curb weight over an Acura TSX any day.
If you get a chance to sit in the drivers seat of a CSX Type S, you'll see that it's a great place to be. The leather on the door panels is nicer than most of the stuff the Germans put on their entry level cars. (and then some)
The only problem with the CSX Type S is it's price is seriously ridiculous.
If only it was RWD......2900 pound, 200HP, LSD, great interior, navigation, HID, RWD: I would pay 33 000$ CAN for that.
I like the white one, and IMO this is the only Acura badge to pull that nasty grille off and make it palatable. I love the leather, I would pick one up if it was offered in the states if the price was around $24K I think the trim & appointments are nicer than the Civic we get, also the Acura fixes what I don't like about our Civics the headlamps & tails.
