Looks nice to me. Is that 4 window controls I see? Could this be from the Si Sedan?

Bah, nevermind. It dosn't have the little triangular windows ahead of the mirrors.

White0nGold has a spectacular aura about

honestly, i like it, i just dont like the digital speedometer, that reminds me of like an oldsmobile or something, they should'ave made the speedometer like everyother car, like the rpm gauge, besides that, i like it, and also, say good by to aftermarket head units,

i hope i never have to drive a right hand drive cuz shifting with my right hand would be weird as hell. do they switch up the pedals in them like from left to right in a right hand drive would it go gas brake clutch or stay the same clutch brake gas if it is different i would have a nervous breakdown from trying to drive.

the hardest part of driving euro/asian cars is remembering to walk to the driver's side door on the right, not left.

also, the pedals are the same as ours; clutch, brake, gas

IMO, i think these new dash designs look awesome...ive always wanted a car that gave me the feeling of being inside of a cockpit of an airplane or something....ever since I saw the blue Alpine demo Civic, I fell in love with these designs...

hmmmm....the steering wheel, gas pedal, and speedometer is pissing me off. making it harder to put in after market radio's makes me even more peeved. I like the colors and sleek design, but it seems like the interior is gonna make me feel like i'm going to space.
