Rumor has it that Acura is killing off the RSX anyway. Acura is going to be more of the luxury side of Honda, kinda like Lexus and Inifiniti.

well i love this concept car except for one thing. the ass is too high in the air kinda like a neon. front looks nice and aggressive but the ass does not compare to our 7thgen asses.

In Canada the RSX Type S starts at 34k plus tax. Can't imagine what the price of this civic will be(holy moly donut shop!).

just hope it's not a reskinned RSX! looks very nice !

TOV (vtec.net) has excellent coverage of the show and the Si Concept. According to the Honda reps they talked to that wing will be on the car, but it will not be mounted as high. The wheels will not be 18's but 17's. The chassis is all-new. The 200hp, 6-speed, and LSD are all confirmed for production. Unlike this concept the production modle will have door handles and will not have the center-exit exhaust.

that would be good or how else are we gonna get in!

probably a safety thing anyway that they need to have standard door handles.

Oh yeah, also, US will recieve coupe and sedan only, not hatch or 5-door.

mrchowmein · 02-10-2005

is toyota scared? tC vs Si, xA/xB vs Fit. Fit was the best selling car in Japan and Car of the Year in 02, while the Civic is the best selling compact car in the US. Will Honda be able to slay Goliath (toyota) in the compact segment? haha.

omfg, im going to be geting one for sure for sure. sorry lovely 7thgen but this

AzNmiKex215 · 02-10-2005

looks damn good, but i can see the price tag being WAYYY OVER INFLATED UPON RELEASE

abmerop18 · 02-10-2005

drools @ new 8thgen. i am so tempted to sell all my turbo stuff and get the 8thgen. i wanna see pics and specs of the base models now

Hawk · 02-10-2005

well looks like i was right, SI gets the RSX-S motor. More than likely the base models will get some variation of the K20a3.

I'm really surprised they put a LSD in it, even the RSX-S doesn't have one, honda is deffiently saying something.....

I think its really good looking. You gotta figure the black hood, blacked out lights, wing and probably 17s instead of 18s will be on the production version. But that thing is damn good looking.
