i think they look halfway decent.

kinda like the scion tC

7/14/2005 10:55:22 AM

ugly

7/14/2005 10:58:03 AM

better than the 05 but not great

7/14/2005 10:59:52 AM

moving more towards the accord coupe and scion

7/14/2005 11:03:25 AM

get rid of the black hood

it looks ok i guess, nothing special. yeah, that spoiler is a little weird.

200hp, huh? i wonder how heavy it will be.

7/14/2005 12:04:40 PM

I like it, personally.

But, maybe that's because I was so disgusted with the latest model.

i think it is much better than the 05

i am digging the 200hp engine with a 6 speed

7/15/2005 8:11:24 AM

It looks better... isnt this engine and 6 speed out of the RSX?
and 200hp 6speed, welcome to VW.

its not too hard to see through the options and get an idea of what the anonymous civic landscape will look like in a couple years when these displace the current model. I like the pointy headlights and the arrangment with the hood the way I like the existing accord's front end. The rest is clean enough but not really exciting. typical honda.


just found these on autoweek:

^yeah but that is the base civic not the SI


i also noticed the placement of the exhaust being centally located in the middle....

7/15/2005 10:03:51 AM

Didn't you just buy a civic?

7/15/2005 10:07:07 AM

whats the point of a civic if its as big as an accord?

7/15/2005 10:35:30 AM

not bad

kinda looks like the tC

7/15/2005 11:35:43 AM

that's TIGHT

7/15/2005 11:44:48 AM

Accord coupe shape
TSX angles
Audi tail lights

7/15/2005 11:52:36 AM

meh

7/15/2005 12:56:51 PM

the black hood is gay

the yellow lights are gay

the tsx cookie-cutting is gay (even though i like the tsx...originality is nice)

do not be afraid of a spoiler folks...having one on your car doesnt make you a faggot

contrary to popular belief

7/15/2005 2:14:00 PM

Id have one of these

7/15/2005 2:28:00 PM

i don't mind having a spoiler... i just don't know about that spoiler.

7/15/2005 3:05:06 PM

rather have a scion

I havent heard if this will be standard option on them to begin with

7/15/2005 4:23:09 PM

thatd be hot with a huge aluminum wing, a mad tight body kit, some blingin spinners, flashing neons, a roof scoop, and a dope 5" exhaust yo

it would be mad fast

7/15/2005 4:27:46 PM

that car is bigger than the 1997 accord

7/16/2005 8:00:47 PM

so what will be the difference between this and RSX-s. they will have two identical cars for the same market. it's stupid.

...price will likely be in the same ball park as rsx-s.

i have done some reading, from what it seems, not that anyone knows much but the pricing should be around 21K maybe a bit more

7/18/2005 12:40:47 PM

does it have a door popper on the remote? or do i just not see where the handles are?

7/18/2005 12:46:37 PM

^ that was the first thing i noticed about that pic too...

7/18/2005 1:04:26 PM

If they're going to be pulling the S2000, then the Civic SI had better be pretty damned hot, not just on the track but also in the looks dept.

7/18/2005 1:54:59 PM

those pictures are of the concept car itself, which is mostly nonfunctional to begin with, i assume they will have door handles on it, just like the brembo brakes wont be on the base models

7/18/2005 2:05:22 PM

The sedan looks like a TSX mated with a first-generation Prius.

7/18/2005 5:57:04 PM

^^^it doesn't matter how hot the Civic SI ends up being (and i'm sure it won't be that strong, anyway). it won't fill S2000 shoes.

7/18/2005 7:30:09 PM

they should have an sh-awd version married to a turbo version of the si and sell that. but i guess that would lower their reliability from 300k to 225.

7/18/2005 11:31:28 PM

the should bring back the Civic CRX and do it to that.

7/18/2005 11:37:09 PM

the japs slowly make it bigger and bigger so when we get fatter and fatter, we dont notice. Then one year, BAMB, they invade and we are too fat to get out of our own damn cars.

7/18/2005 11:43:01 PM

i don't like spoilers

7/19/2005 9:00:51 AM

I don't like sore lips

7/19/2005 9:43:39 AM

hell yeah bring back the crx

with gas costing 2.40+ you'd get some buyers

7/19/2005 11:17:57 AM

milk is still more expensive. I drink more milk then use gas damnit

7/19/2005 11:44:51 AM

Its alright, but nothing spectacular. If they're going to push the price all the way up to $21k though, I don't see how they expect to sell many of them with the RSX-S that close in price, performance and likely a much nicer interior.

Then again it'll be hard to say for sure until they get something out that will at least somewhat resemble what will be sold to the public.

7/19/2005 2:46:43 PM

there's enough ppl in the market that surely someone would buy it just for looks

7/19/2005 2:53:53 PM

rumor has it that the RSX wont be around much longer.... but that is just what i read from a few message boards, so who knows

7/19/2005 5:37:24 PM

BUT DOES IT HAVE A VTECH!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

they look pretty bad ass, SI pics towards the end of the slide show

9/1/2005 11:30:42 AM

^^for the last time vtec, it's not a phone
variable valve timing and electronic lift control.........there is no H

9/1/2005 3:28:43 PM

I like this angle and color


I dont like the 4door profile though... it's got a weird Prius shape to it. I didnt see a coupe from profile but the 3/4 shot looks much nicer than the sedan's. I'd have to get used to the extreme hood/windshield rake on an econobox body. I'd take a trunk lip spoiler over the wing spoiler

I do like the new headlamps, grill, etc

[Edited on September 1, 2005 at 3:38 PM. Reason : the tach/cluster is awesome]

9/1/2005 3:37:33 PM

see now i dont like the digital dash, obviously the tach isnt digital, but i love having analog gauges, jsut the old school in me
