06 civic

it would be impossible for me to take those pics. as much as i would like to, i can't. they actually search you with metal det. and all that. it's a pretty top secret area. sounds ghey, but it's true. it is a sweet car though. will make you change your mind about any other civic. has sweet real time navi, 2 tier dash. sweet inside and out. sorry about the pics, but i need my job.

So by the way you describe it, the new Civic has become Accord. What is the demension wise of the car inside out? Do you have those detail?

I know that 7th gen Civic has already gotten the interior space 5 cu. ft less than an Accord(the trunk is actually bigger than the Accord, coupe to coupe, EX to EX), which is not much by taking dashboard and rear deck into account. While the exterior is 1 ft shorter(just the front part is shorter) and 5 in narrower, which makes the Civic a really large compact already.

what i mean by 2 tier dash is that the speedo is on the top part of the dash and the rest of the dummy gauges are on the bottom. in my opinion, the front looks like the tsx and the rear looks like the new 7 series bmw. the inside has more luxury, it has a wider stance. as far as colors or any other ?'s, i'm not sure. we was limited to what we actually saw. like i said, it's like area 51 there. but if i find out any other details, i will keep you all informed.

one more thing. the gauges are unlike anything you have seen. aftermarket or otherwise. i am going to hold out until it comes out. the way the navi is built in to the dash is awsome. and to answer the ? about the hid's, yes, they are going to have them. the wheel size is 16 stock with a 17 inch option i think.

Wow if even half the stuff you say is true then this a definate rsx killer. If they have a leather option i would be very tempted to trade in my 04 lol. I guessing if you get all the options you mentioned its probably going to cost at least 23k or more. The the new si is going to be the fastest civic thats come out, but it also probably going to be the most expensive.

From Panama, I will trust your judgement. But can u tell us a advance to image the interior of it? I am one of the ones buying one. I know that the community will love to have a advance.

Ok, I dig that you dont want to get fired or anything and I respect that. But atleast draw in paint, a diagram of the dash or guages (2 teir) so we can get an idea like this:

Here is my attempt at drawing the guages and dash even though I dont know what they look like

Its a bad try but took like 30 seconds, at least give us something

^^He he, nice try Xavier.

ineedHP, if what you are saying is true man, I think you have just become our official 06si representative. I was wondering if you could give any info. on the steering wheel and the shifter? Are they like the regular H looking stuff or more kinda racing looking, oh and uh...racing pedals maybe??
Don't worry man, we'll all keep it top secret, just like in Area 51. Right guys??

Hey, how about rep for the try

I heard that the steering wheel is going to resemble the three spoke on the current si and rsx..dunno bout racing pedals but they are so cheap aftermarket, I dont think it would matter

ineedhp, care to comment of the engine...ie. What is the engine code? Is it the k20z1 out of the 05 type -s?
