Wow, the 4dr looks like a mini 3.2 TL. Man, that's tight as hell. Loving the tail lights too, kinda like the 1.7 EL. Sweet!

alpinecivic: btw, thanks for clarifying that up, any pics of the si?

my gf is looking for a car, i'm going to try and talk her into getting a sedan, even though it's the less power one, it's still very nice.

wonder how much the price is, and a release date.

I don't know how much it improved the exterior pics, but I did a quick-and-dirty lightening on them in an attempt to bring out some more details.

whoa i can't figure out why some of you would get one so fast. It doesn't look that great and really you don't even know how it rides? doesn't even look remotely like a civic anymore. I thought the 01+ was bad, but wow at this.

ohh for all those wonder why I mentioned the G35, didn't you know alpine was debating wether to get a new SI or g35, he hed a thread. Like I said I still think G35 is better for you alpine you've move up. anyways back on topic.

I'm not a big fan of the new civic sedan...Also if the SI is priced above 20k... A wrx is still a better deal no matter what.
IF the Si retains its 18k price which it is right now, that is in fact what it needs to get the market. There are plenty of other 200hp+ monsters offered by many other companys out right now.. Play ball honda and lets see if they can beat them out some way.
They got the honda name... Colbalt has gained a rep in performance and dodge annilates them both in power department. Whats this SI going to offer other than the name and a pretty new face I ask? I hope it drives like a dream. I dont believe looks and a name well sell....market has changed for performance cars.

Thanks for the advice John, the reason I decided to stick with the SI was price! I dont wanna have a car payment forever! At this point in my life I really dont care what status a car will put me at, I have other things to think about....Family! So with that said I also hope it drives like a dream!

Ok, so I'm guessing the lip kit that was on the concept model is either not coming with the car or it wil be considered as an extra?
