It's growing on me...

The new civic is anyway. I really didn't like the design at first, but the more I see of it, the more I like it, especially the interior.

well, it certainly looks better than the bland one that it replaces.
no doubt, 17 year olds will be pulling up next to me in no time, engine revving, hoping i will race them. which i won't. |
agreed, a huge improvement over the current SI, the stick seems to have been moved further down as well...I hated the placement of it on the previous models...

lining the civic si's tach righ above trhoad's avatar, it strikes me as a eerie resemblance :o

Yeah but we got that extra 2000 rpm ;) :D |
It's not bad. I think they did a good job redesigning the civic
|
I think I took that tach picture from a non-si civic. Don't know if the si gets higher redline.
|
I seem to remember hearing it had a high one...like 8k or so
|
Doesn't look bad at all.. I just hope they made it more difficult to put those stupid mufflers on this car compared to the other civics. About 7 out 10 civics that I see have that stupid muffler...
WWWWAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!! Makes it sound like a weed wacker. A lot of other cars use them too though. |

Sorry I still think the styling is really bland.
|
starting less than 20K, it's a pretty good deal. i wouldn't mind having one as a daily driver.
|
I think the interior looks pretty nice too. With similar performance and costing thousands less than a RSX-S, should be a hot seller.

I like it this car will have a huge aftermarket following very quickly. It is a huge improvement over the one it replaces.
|
It's almost...dare I say it?
Classy. :o |
interior = nice front nose = ugly

I think the front looks a lot better like this

Too bad it still has the mac struts. ivtec doesn't do it for me. Nothing beat the intensity of the older b16a's. I wouldn't mind a used type r for my daily driver either.
|
the instrument cluster is just retarted
|
My first car was a 96 red coupe ex, I have never loved a car sooooo much. I think it's GREAT looking inside and out, I'd own one any day.

The B16 we got was only 160 horsepower and it didn't rev this high, at least I don't think so. You should test drive this car, it is subtly powerful and has a very nice sound to it. Honda did a very good job on this one.
