what's in store for '03?
does anyone know of any changes in store for the '03 civic coupe/sedan? ie. from '01 to '02 they revised the suspension slightly as well as the power steering pump. they also added that cup holder cover thing and rear sway bar for LX and DX. i'm just curious about what they are going to do for next year.

Rep Power: 0 the 2003 might have a refresh design...although from what ive heard on the forums its gonna stay the same in terms of design...my 2002 rides not as good as my friends 2003 corolla...so maybe some tweaking in that area...i dunno im just rambling...its still gonna be a very good quality car!!!

[hr]I read some place on the internet. That for '03, on EX only (sedan/coupe), they will offer the b16a engine. Same as in the RSX. Just a rumour?![hr]

Rep Power: 0 B16 is not gona happen they wont put an older engine in the new car
plus that would defeat the purpose of selling the SI
the best we'll see is prob a minor increase in hp..
they dont really need to change anythign IMO
03 is a big year because they've got their hands full on the new accord

Rep Power: 0 i really hope that honda doesn't change the exterior lighting appearance too much. i really like having the 'cutting-edge' look right now. i just got my car a half a year ago. i don't want it looking 'old' already! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Yeah the new accord I think is there main concentration, but yeah I will definately wanna check out to see what things the 03 comes with. But yeah I wouldn't be surprised to see some different lighting changes or something.

Rep Power: 0 My guess is that you'll see a few exterior lighting changes. That's all they really ever do from year to year. Well, that and a few small details in the interior.
Edit: Actually, I have never notice the civics changing between gens. I have never really payed any attention though. You always see the accords getting new tail lights and small interior adjustments from year to year in the same gens.
