As a teaser to the assembled journalists, the Honda reps played a soundtrack of the Civic Si's engine being wound out as the driver blasted up through the gears. Judging by what we heard, and the claim by Honda that this was essentially a production setup, there won't be a need to make any mods if you like a full growling exhaust note.
i posted that ^^^^ honda themselves said that they have tuned the exhaust and they let the press hear it apoligizing that no1 can drive it yet

ugghhhh i dont like that wiper set up... although if you think about it its more effective i suppose when your whippin around turns you can see through the corners of the windshield which helps alot. plus if the center of the windshield gets dirty it block sun lol... good benefits but so ugly when they are running ...

Rep Power: 0 I like the New 2006 SI concept but I dont like the Accourd coupe backend, I like the back end of the spy shot CRX.
I think I would still buy the Acura RSX type-S over the SI simply because the SI coupe doesent have hatchback utility, and since there is no interior shots makes me wonder how good the interior will look.

judging on the exterior relative to the acuras and hondas out now... id guess that maybe the interior will be tight fit with some brushed aluminum inlays... actual metal not just silver painted plastic like b4.

Rep Power: 0 This is certainly a beautiful car. I can't wait to get my hands on it. I was was contemplating whether or not to buy another Civic, but these pics have changed my mind. Hope Honda gives this 'Vic more power. I wouldn't mind paying close to $20K for it. By the way, when will it be available for purchase? Didn't quite get that yet.
Peace
