| The Type-S' suspension has stiffer springs, firmer damping and beefier stabilizer bars than the regular CSX. |
Target market thoughtsWhat's important to factor into any automotive analysis is this: who is the vehicle targeted at and how well does it perform within that context? My answer relative to the CSX Type-S: very well indeed. With a Canadian MSRP of $33,400, the Acura CSX Type-S delivers a tremendous amount of performance and quality in a youthful, spirited fashion. Forget buying conventional and going aftermarket to add heat and handling; the CSX Type-S rolls off the dealer's lot ready to perform. The Type-S modifications are beautifully integrated and well-balanced, which is not always the case when done after purchase. As an entry-level premium sports sedan, the CSX Type-S offers excellent value and plenty of punch for those in its target market.
