New Civic SI
I was driving to work this morning and I saw a truck full of brand new civic SI's. Wow is that thing ugly or what. I loved the look of the 99 and 2000 civic SI. They just screwed the civic SI's look totally.

They kind of looked like RSX's when I saw them from far away then i saw the "H" in the front grille. Figures, i dont like RSX's either.

The Civic Si is not a bad-looking car to me. I'd be willing to buy it as a weekend racer.

I think the styling is ok, but the output from the motor is disappointing.

I don't think it looks that bad. I'm considering the Civic Si or the Sentra SE-R Spec V for a daily driver.

Maybe if it had a "R" instead of "Si", of course with the same spec like in Japan, some of you would change your mind.

It is horrible...I had a 99 Si, EBP, with tons of mods, now that cars was fun to drive, and it looked pretty nice (in my opinion at least ) The new Si is just horrible, it really does look like a mini Odyssey! I'm sure it's still a fun car to drive, but so is a Miata, and I know I would be caught dead driving one of those either.
