2003 Civic Hatch(Sir/Si) vs 2002 GTI VR6!!!!!

Lol i was at the dealer getting some clips for my dash(broke some installing deck) when i hear the sales man/dude telling some guy how the new civic is better then the gti i almost lost it, my father ownes a 2000 gti vr6 i have driven it alot , i own a 2002 civic dx and i know what to expect from a honda and what to expect from a vw i don't think it fair to jump the gun and compare a gti(vr6) with a civic(sir/si), our cars are nice for what they are but i am yet to see a civic to go 260km/h stock!!!!! personally had it going 240km/h not half as scary as 190km/h in the civic!!! just venting , i do think honda is great but i don't think i civic hatch is better then a vw gti!!!!


cheaper is
better on gas yes
better service at the dealer maybe
but realy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Oh yah how fast is the sir 0-62
any one know what the dx is! 0-62

HAHA![IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] I agree...Hondas are good reliable cars, which can be fun to drive also but to me, most of these cars lack the character and the power (w/ the exception of maybe the S2000) you find in Germans like the Golf/Jetta and Audi A4.

I took a new hatch in my Si on the highway two nights ago...I dropped from 5th into 3rd, im assuming he did the same...he was about a car behind all the way to about 115 where he just gave up and got smaller in the rearview. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Hondas have never been known for speed, but even though it might outdo an si (as it should) si is still just an econobox car like the rest of the honda's with a lil extra sports tuning to it

The GTI VR6 would be good competition for the Civic Type R, not an SI hatch.
