Why does the 06 have less hp than the 05? Been looking around to find the answer but no luck!

Honda changed the way that HP was tested to comply with new SAE standards, I don't think the RSX actually lost any power

So would you suggest buying the 05 or the 06?

It's the same engine, and everything else. There wasn't a drop in hp, honda changed the way hp was measured. If you have the money for a new one, then get it. Otherwise get a used 05.
