They should've left the Si a coupe. The rims aren't bad though.

I wish they would show it in a different color. I'm also curious to see if they leave the shifter built into the dash or if they bring it down to the floorboard.

The 5-speed sticking out of the dash was not well received. But who knows, might be the next big thing.

I agree they should have left it as a coupe, and they picked a bad color to show the car off with. Silver would have been nicer.

I agree the new Civic Si is UGLY. I thought the '99 Si was the coolest looking car - especially in that blue a lot of them came in. I hear they autocross pretty darned well too!

Uh - when it's almost a thousand pounds lighter with only a hundred less hp? The hp to weight issue is 16.325 for the Si to our 13.5! And it's a 5-speed!

The new Si is FUGLY ... I cannot even imagine what Honda was thinking ...

They must have been looking at the Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe.
