What are the trims for a 2006 Acura CSX?
The 2006 Acura CSX, sold in Canada, was offered in two trims: CSX (base) and CSX Premium.
In the Canadian market, Acura positioned the CSX as a Civic-based sedan with two levels of equipment. Both trims shared the same 2.0-liter i-VTEC engine and offered a choice of manual or automatic transmission, with the Premium trim adding a higher level of interior and exterior features.

Below is a quick breakdown of what each trim included and how they differed.
CSX (Base)
