Default '06 RSX Type S

Anybody out there have an '06 RSX Type S? ...or any other year... What do you think of it?

Acura has a pretty sweet lease deal now on the Type S:

$239 Monthly Payment
36 Month Term
$1699 Down Payment
$250 Security Deposit
12000 Annual Mileage

Its a good car, but performance wise the civic si is better. The civic si has an LSD. I like the way the RSX looks though and it does have leather.

I wasn't as impressed with the Civic SI when I finally saw it in person. I haven't driven either one, but I do prefer the look of the Acura. The leather is definitely a plus!

Either sell the Type R, add an LSD to Type-S models or quit selling the dang thing.

The RSX also has a nicer interior. Understated and classy. The split dash design in the Civic reminds me of one of those hideous 'bookshelf audio systems' that have more lights than LA

I think it would be a better deal if it was a no-down lease with 15K mi/yr. I do like the Type S over the Si however. They do need to include an LSD in the TypeS, it's just ridiculous that it's not even an option.

rsx looks better and the interior ownz pretty much every car in its class imo lol, i like the new civics but the dash is too futuristic for me. it sucks though that they have an lsd and rsx's don't

Is the 06 RSX the last year of production? Anyone knows when will the next generation come out?
