not too bad, although the rear wheel looks incredibly small compared to the rear 1/4 panel... then again I'm spoiled by fender flares and rwd. :)

GT40FIED 11-13-2006 01:50 AM

Ummmm...yeah...I'll take "hideous" for $400, Alex.

There really isn't a single part of that design that works for me.

ebpda9 11-13-2006 05:51 AM

i kinda like it, but i like my legacy better

Robert 11-13-2006 07:18 AM

When does this become available?

ebpda9 11-13-2006 08:45 AM

never in the US. it is available for sale in europe, australia and japan

Racing Rice 11-13-2006 09:54 AM

Is it Turbo? All wheel drive?

No?

I don't care for it then.. :flick:

JDMFantasy2k 11-13-2006 12:01 PM

umm i thinking of a word :hmmm:




....
......
.........

oh yeah...

gay

Thank god honda isn't releasing it in the us (never thought i'd say that about a type r vehicle), they know us americans hate their shitty spaceship styling, and they know that for the price it's a damn rip off compared to other normal cars out there. I'm just glad i won't have to see that goose egg on wheels rolling around my neighborhood.

IALuder 11-13-2006 12:34 PM

its coming with a 240hp non turbo k-series. fwd.

Robert 11-13-2006 03:36 PM

What motor does it have in it?

I don't see why everyone calls it gay... I think it looks good. Better then all of the modified civics I've ever seen and its stock.

CD5Passion 11-13-2006 06:09 PM

at first i didn't like it. but i like it now....as far as the photography tho..that fucking star glare on the fender is so unneccesary and makes the photos look cheesy...

well that makes it less gay, but still gay nonetheless. I bet it's still a porker just like the FG civic Si. They need to make civics 2300 lbs again.

do you have any more info on that ? most of the magazines will report it as 197hp just like our si

AzCivic 11-14-2006 07:38 PM

there's no way in hell a civic is going to have as much or more hp than the s2000.

Gotta agree with ya Rob. So many fugly civics out there that I've seen some of you guys call nice.

This design is appalling by far. I understand the whole idea behind aerodynamic but for God's sake every new car looks like a damned space ship.

One plus I noticed is they made the hood a little longer relating to the 90s generation (but it's still not nearly as horizontal). The civics out there right now.. the hood is seriously like 2-3.5 feet from front to windshield.

Mischief 11-19-2006 02:22 PM

i think it's ugly as sin and i read in SCC i think that it has same HP as the Si, just weighs alot less.

HondaImpaler 11-21-2006 10:37 PM

Lexus would eat that as an appetizer.

thermal 11-22-2006 10:44 AM

it doesnt bother me. i just want the motor...........
