I'm sorry but this is a decision that you're going to have to make... both cars are polar opposites.

Ummm....... I don't see how there is a proper comparison here, the Si is evidently the better choice!

Get the si for sure.

You not only get a car that is faster, better looking, and handles much better but the si still gets really good gas mileage, I posted as high as 31mpg and average 28, and has all the extra little amenities that the dx does not have.

Test drive the si to make sure all the gears are still good and the car doesn't have the 3rd gear issue. If all is good make sure to flush your tranny when and if you get the si with amsoil mtf to ensure smooth transmission operation.

if you have to ask you should be driving the granny car dxg and not the si at all because obviously when true si drivers want to buy a car they only look at the si and not any of the other 150hp crap cars lol.
