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...

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.

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 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.
