Handling is safe and predictable. The CSX Type-S tends to understeer, but you can easily maintain control by gently releasing the throttle and making steering adjustments. Equipped with excellent Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 tires, this car allowed me to tackle not one but two December snowstorms with confidence, even when the roads were completely covered in snow and ice. | | The generous cargo capacity makes the CSX a versatile sedan. |
A real sporty carThe CSX Type-S is nothing more than a Civic Si Coupe dressed up as a sedan -- performance, reliability and functionality are in the mix. This car can take on any other performance compact in its class, albeit with a more subtle approach. Dad will love it...Power and performance
