I believe those are Canadian prices.

Looks like a K20A3 type engine's under the hood.

And the headlights are from the JDM sedan.

The interior looks nice, but it reminds me too much of the 4 door Accord, which btw I think looks kind of funky...

Yup... a prettier looking sedan than the Civic (IMO, I think the JDM headlights and taillights look nicer), and a K-series under the hood. What's not to like?

Not just the Mugen sedan (there is no Japanese Si, bro), but all JDM Civic sedans look like that.

Sorry I was too distracted by the Lexus IS ad to look at the CSX.

nice...HIDs optional. Too bad Si's didnt come with optional OEM HIDs. Canada drives on the right side of the road right? So we dont have to worry about having the wrong HID patterns if we were to convert the front ends to those.

It is in fact K20A3.. It said so in the article that It's a 2.0 Liter I-Vtec engine like the one in the RSX (base model)..

But I still wonder why?.. Can anyone fill me in on this one??... Where's George when you need him...
