"better" is such a subjective term.

 

i can like the dx better since it has a/c.

 

or i can like the cx better cuz its lighter.

 

it depends on what ur future goals are

my 99 CX has AC. but thats comming out after the b18c-r swap.

 

i like the CX better because it dont have a rear wiper. looks way more clean in the back end. IMO
