Isn't that Euro Yellow Pearl? A lot of people hate that color. I think it's ok, but I'd prefer a black or white Si.

notice how it perfectly matches the color of... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] ?

it's bad enough that it only comes in 4 colors... the color isn't HORRIBLE... but doesn't do that car any justice (i think the red Si/Type-R looks bad, too... white, silver, black are the only colors i've really liked that body style in)

It needs the Civic Type R body kit. It's funny people respect the CTR over the new Si (even me) cuz it looks a bit better. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] (And it's fast and capable as bla-bla-bla...)

i don't know...i've never been a fan of the Si anyways...it reminds me of a shortened station wagon....however, it still has the sporty front and all, but honestly i agree with bhayes82...it does sort of match a shade of vomit...it would look better in black....

maybe the model is something that has to grow on someone for them to like it? However, looking at the color again makes me hate the shade even more...

That color is just ugly and nasty. There is a huge difference between Euro Yello Gold and IncaPearl. Just look for yourself, I think Incapearl looks 100 times better. The Euro Yello has a green tint to it. And no its not any better in person.

I dont really think it looks like a minivan but it is sure a larger then normal hatchback. It weighs more then a 7th gen coupe does and its taller as well.

EX

Wheelbase 103.1
Length 174.7
Height 55.1
Width 66.7
Weight (mt/at) 2555/2595

Si

Wheelbase 101.2
Length 165.8
Height 56.7
Width 66.7
Weight 2744/2752 w/ side air bags

If you compare the inside of the two cars as well you will find that the Si is bigger inside. More head, leg, shoulder, passenger, and cargo room. Kind of strange for Honda to make such a big hatchback.

In my opinion both Inca pearl and the siīs gold are a bit too much. thatīs like a Chrysler color. Problem with those colors is that the first two months you think they look cool and after a couple of years they just look plain ugly, just look at those old mid 80īs civics and accords with the gold color...

I have nothing against the hatchback civic, but it would be so cool if we could have a Si coupe. The 6th gen Si, specially the blue one looked so good.
