Definitely a lot of "concept" stuff on there. I'd bet the actual version will be more toned down (ie. smaller wheels, lose that wing, etc).
maybe, but a lot of the honda concepts became production. look at the ridgeline, element, s2000, accord hybrid; they all look pretty much like the concept.
Anyways, im impressed as of now. Si the most powerful FF compact import? Like i said a week ago, Honda cars take on traits of their older brothers, the civic looks like a mini accord:
True, but the shell can still be changed man. They won't totally revamp it for production, but they most likely will change something for crash test ratings.
Is it a common practice that the concepts do not have fully approved crash rating?
I am just curious about how automobile industry works.
another thing, what is running lean? people say that turbo make your car run lean. does it mean that the car runs lean to the side, like an allignment problem?
if the si is to come out with 200hp, what will the CTR come with, 2005 version is already up to 215hp (reason for outrunning the new GTI?). maybe 230hp ctr?
Holy shit!! By the time I was reading page #6 of this thread 4 more pages were created in like 2 minutes!! LOL!! Everyone is so excited about our new Civic SI and the best part: IT'S A COUPE!!!!!!!!!!! I freaking love it!!
Anyone else getting this car if it's release as seen here??
Man! I've put some bread already on my 04, but this new SI looks spectacular!!

yeah honda said this was the final "concept" for the production model. I'd imagine it will retain much of what this civic Si has.
HONDA almost never makes a mistake when it comes to restyling the Vics. At the beggining many will seem to disagree, but eventually they are like DAMN!! that car is sexeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! LOL!!
