brill is just really nice brill is just really nice brill is just really nice brill is just really nice
hybrid is not pretty :( *pics*

hey all

I was crusing around with my friend with the digital camera again... takin random pics of stuff... and we ended up at the honda lot and i saw a hybrid up close.

granted, the civic hybrid is the least offencive hybrid on the road to date... but its still kinda ugly...

I would like to go drive one to see how much power it has, but I'm not the best person for that as I wouldn't have a clue [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

so here's my pics and commentary:



I kinda like the front bottom part... Still prefer the regular civic... the colour of this civic is a light pearly blue... I'm not a fan but some might be.


I love that its a 4 dr... but the wheels are welfare lookin... i guess they need those for air flow purposes but... damn you'd think they could make something better.


rear spoiler is ... looks goofy


LOVE the taillights... the white is better than that pinkish hue on the regular ones. again, dislike the spoiler


close up of the welf wheels


the antenna is GOOFY lookin! I don't know why honda couldn't just leave it in the windshield... it sticks up soooo much higher than the pics... also looks really really goofy at the front. I wonder if it could be removed?


So there ya go... a few photos of the hybrid for your viewing pleasure. I should've taken a pic of the dealer sheet in the rear window but I didn't even think of it.

If I had to guess it's probably disc brakes, and it's probably used with the "regenerative" braking system the cars have I believe......
