My roommate has the Mazdaspeed 3. Im sure im crazy, but it FEELS faster than my Evo. Could just be the difference in driving my car and riding along with him. In any case its a helluva nice car, and I would take it over the civic or RSX for sure. Oh yeah, and it responds to mods REALLY well. You get like 50 HP from every little thing you do. Sounds really nice too. With an intake its got really cool turbo noise, and then the stock exhaust sounds pretty mean too.
You are as absurd as you can get. Your sources of info are as erroneous as false, your comments are far from reality.
Please, I repeat, please show me and show this forum that you can get "50hp for every little thing that you do". You might probably get 50hp (crank) with a custom tune but that is about it.

looks better than this:

The Type-S is aerodynamically shape better. The Si shape is sooo bad. The back looks horrible, like a huge bubble ***. The headlight design is much sleeker and better looking to the aweful shape of the Si. The Type-S front grill is much better suited for the shape, the mesh inserts are much nicer than generic plastic front bars for the Si. The lower grill of the Type-S is much better, it looks well connected, giving it a great presence and stane. The Si huge lower grills looks retarded, like somethings missing, black bars again? C'mon, this is 2007 were is the freaking mesh grill a la GTi or a clean look like a the Type-S? Looks like honda stuck a portable cooler in the front. If you notice a trend with cars today, they try to match the head lights and tail lights to approximate shape, looks good, giving the car an all around nice shape, well looks like honda forgot what "shape" was becauase the Si tails share no shape (not even ) close to the headlights, but atleast Honda Japan got it right with the Type-S, the tail light shape (although not exact) is pretty on point with the head light shape. The rims on the Type-S look better too. Who design the Si rims? So generic? dual multispoke? Genius,

I could go on, but just incase you didnt get it, the Type-S is a hell of alot better looking than Si and it is faster too. Lets not even bring up interior.
C'mon this is a no brainer, get the type-s and be done with it. Its sooo much more car than the Si, MUCH MORE.

Yes, the SI is theoretcially faster, but only if you drive around with the pedal mashed to the floor and who wants to that all day? Get something with some torque.

love my mazdaspeed 3. Nice car u should look into. Extremely comfotable. Alot of torque steer though! Car pulls hard. Nothing a 15 min swap of the lower engine mount cant fix. Mazspeed intake ca carb legal and sounds nice. They make alot of power with bolt ons because it has 2 cats and like 3 resonators and a muffler!

, my 2004 ralliart comes with dual multispoke, why does the 07 Si come with it too? C'mon HoA, be different/orignal. The spoiler? God that is the ugliest looking spoiler ever, ewwwww. It looks like an after thought... "hey, lets give the Si a spoiler". The Type-s small intergrated trunk spoiler is very nice, sleek touch, not silly looking like the Si after thought. Plus the Type-R spoiler on the Type-S looks damn damn good. If you put a high spoiler on the Si (god forbid), that **** will tip over, weight to stance ratio.

Now that I can see them side by side, I'd take the more futuristic Si. RSXs are well-balanced cars but they score low in looks.
