I think the RSX-S is a better overall car.

I think they just want to keep the car as a showroom attraction until they have to start paying the interest on it, at which point they'll lower the price dramatically.
makes sense to me :dunno:

the guy who took the pics said that when he and his friend went into to look at the Si, no one came up to ask them if they needed help, probably because they knew they werent going to sell it or at least planned to for that price.
