They did a performance review on a civic? Before all the Honda fans come out of their thin doors and high revs I'll say this: it's the sport edition and I understand that. I really want to know about mileage, what rattles, if my parents could fit in the back and how much shit I can take out of town with me.
I had an 08 coupe and now have an 09 sedan. I have to say, the sedan feels much more solid, rides better, and handles just as well, if not better. It's an excellent car. And you don't have to downshift two gears to pass on the highway! Usually on the Interstate or highway (65mph), I don't have to downshift at all from 6th and if I do, usually drop to 5th. I love it! I wouldn't have anything else in the price range.
@bkfinest006 Are you serious? If you are looking for a fun, sexy, crazy car. Go SI. If you're just talking plain ol' Civic or Element. Then whatever you want. But if you're seriously considering an SI. Its really no contest.
The new chevy cruze's butt lights looks exactly like the japanese civic fd2...does anyone agree with me? The cruze is looks almost exactly the same...
U GUYS R STUNNED LOL AND UR POINTS MAKE ZERO SENSE u want the sedan becauseeeeee ???? coupe looks 1000x better and is faster??????? im really really lost
@ppackingnegro i want the sedan because it has four doors, therefore making getting my toddler in and out 10x,and also it will make my roadtrips better (i have the coupe right now)
@ppackingnegro because the sedan has better weight distribution and its longer wheelbase alows for more stability. yea and it doest look that bad you noob.
@wtfyourafuckindoosh I thought the sedan handled better too, but I thought that was just my opinion. That would explain why you don't see 2dr Evos or STis, I prefer the sedan's look better too. Just to know that you have a sedan that can perform makes you feel good, bc it's the ultimate shock and awe.
Other cars do better on paper, but this one does better in the real world. Do you want to see the engine check light in a year? Then don't buy this car. Want to turbo charge the civic with stock tranny and engine? Buy this car. Durability pays for itself.
@badm0nkee do you know how to drive a manual transmission? Thats something to consider as well cause this car is manual only. If you dont know your better off buying a manual beater then graduate to the si later. I learned on a beater before buying a nice manual car. Glad i did cause i fucked up the clutch on that beater so bad lol.
i took one of these for a spin a year and a half ago and i absolutely fell in love. i have been dreaming about owning one ever since. which is unusual because my dream car usually changes every month or so.
@wnnarace I actually live in Lake Forest, but me and my 3 cousins make patriot fun by standing on the raft at the last drop, or leaning into the turns so that the raft goes half way off the side of the slide. We usually go on patriot last cuz that's the ride that we get kicked out for lol
Mustangs eat rice all day, specially Japanese sticky rice. Hahaha. I drove this car yesterday and it feels nice and pretty more like a girls car though.

My mom is getting this car. She says she will let me modify it. I want my last years of getting dropped off at school to be awesome. Ill be changing the headlights to projector headlights with Angel eyes. Taillights changed to Clear Tail lights. Install a Cold air intake system. Change the grill, and chrome some parts. Add a chrome muffler, and then later change the rims.
I'm not talking about the car smart one if you knew how to read correctly I was responding to the dude above mes comment that got thumbs down enough it got deleted..
This might be a biased opinion just because I own an SI, but regarding what dougdangger said, he's right about the turbo kits, they are around 3k, but the internals are great for forced induction out of the box, plus it doesn't hurt that it has 11:1 compression, great for turbo/s.c. : ) Also it has lsd. I personally got the car as a fun daily toy and seeing it from that perspective, it's an awesomely fast car. Plus now there's flashpro from Hondata to go all out N/A. Plus cams are available.
An how much will slapping a turbo on it cost? THOUSANDS. A good turbo kit alone will run you $3k. You'll also have to do internal work on the SI's motor or it'll explode when you turbo it. By the time you finish adding a turbo it would've cost you $5k MORE than a Cobalt Turbo.
You still have to worry about your gears grinding and popping out of playce.
Yeah, but the Cobalt is BUTT ugly, has a horrid interior, and crappy resale. Yeah, it's faster, but I couldn't pull the trigger, just too ugly. Si is a really, really nice car; although I'd like to see Honda start offering boosted versions as well.
Chevy, you make the Cobalt SS sedan look as nice as the Civic Si, then next round I'll be looking towards you. You did everything right but the looks and interior.
@MarcsMobileAudio check the review its on youtube. they tested the gti, tc, colbolt ss, and si....colbolt came in 3rd...and i own a si and stock colbolt ss are pretty much equal...
Corolla? Who said anything about a Toyota - I'm talking about the Chevy Cobalt SS. And yes, I own an Si, and it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay faster than a Corolla.
@dougdangger Difference is 10 years from now the Honda will still be worth money and driving. The Cobalt will be falling apart and sitting in a repair shop.
This car fucking RAPES!!!! ITs awesome sounds great and has plenty of power. Want to take the cobalt head on you say? slap a turbo in it and GM can kiss its ass goodbye.
i think civic si are behind in times back then they were the shit but now with thing evolving an becomein better the civic si aint i mean look at the srt-4 caliber an neon an cobalt ss s/c an t/c rsx type s an vw r32 an all the other opposition of this car i mean im a civic si fan to the core but that is just my oppinion so please honda please make a turbocharged or superchared civic si or even an awd s/c or t/c=] cause as far as the competion goes yall are gettin ur asses kick lol
that is the most stupid thing i have ever heard. especially in a civic? Its Fwd for a reason as well as other compacts in this class. you thinking of some shit way different.
i wouldn't say that dude, the srt-4 is factory turbod as well as a 2.4 liter and only has 30 more hp, the cobalt ss, a cobalt is a comparable motor but is also factory turbod and only produces 260 hp, basiclly with alittle money invest into a turbo si, it would beat srt-4's and would be comparable with cobalts, those are just simple numbers so im not trying to be a dickhead, but the civic turbo charged is comparable if not better then most of those cars
Now only if Honda made a 4dr Civic Si something AWD Turbo. That would be my choice, but Evo's are good that new STI is butt ugly. I just like imports they have better build quality
i have that exact fijiblue si in my driveway right now and i walk to it with a big grin on my face everytime. a bunch of these reviews say that you need to downshift 2 gears and blah blah blah its okay... that gearbox is sooo easy n fun to row that youlll beg to be shifting all the time... absolute awesome car in everyway
If they had the VSA on they wouldnt spin that much. They launched at 5500rpm and shifted right around 7800rpm-8000rpm. With it on they woulnt have spun all the way to 2nd.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
RICER!!! That would be the ultimate sleeper car! Twin turbo and nitrous, best way to clean up at the drag strips. I'd bet NO ONE would take you seriously driving that thing around, but if you tuned it right, it could be impressive.
you would also ruin what the car is, seriously, if you want to live a 1/4 or 1/2 mile at a time, get something else. Besides, until you reflash it, the ecu keeps you pretty set in the horses.
I don't own either an Si or a cobalt, but I have driven an Si several times and seriously, the idea of down-shifting two gears is nothing on that car, I actually found myself looking for an excuse to shift gears on that slick 6-spd. I'm sure the SS is capable of more speed and certainly more for less driver effort than the Si but things like -any- resale value, interior quality and not looking like a rental with stuff taped to it also count for something.
can anyone tell me whAt CIVIC is cooler. i want a 2 door but the 4 door is not bad. people say the 2 door are way to oval and look ugly. can anyone tell me what they think about 2 door or 4 door
Grab the sedan. The sedan looks better than the coupe and I doubt you'll lose any performance compared to the coupe. Plus if you ever have a few lil' ones, the sedan will come in handy...
I personally went with the 4 door is only 59 pounds heavier but far more confortable and you dont have to move your seat set up everytime someone needs to get out from the back.
i got the coupe sure the sedan is more practical but in my opinion its ugly .. i have a 2 yr old brother and lifting the seat to put him in his carseat is not that big a deal ... i love it .. get the one YOU like ...either way a great car
Really....Everyone I talked to thought the coupe looked less appealing...hence the reason why sedans sell more. And just take out the spare tire and you basically have the same weight as the coupe...
I have an 08' Si Sedan in the same Fiji Blue Pearl. Great little car, and I'm coming out of my 05' Legacy 2.5 GT (Stage II Turbo) and the RX-8 I traded in. I'm happier in this then the RX-8. I also have a son - so the Sedan is extremely convenient!
I have this exact car, sedan and all, and I love driving it every second of the day. I can cruise around down or hit up the VTEC and race around. It's always a good time to drive, pleasure to own.
Buy an Si, I have an 07 Si Coupe nothing but perfection...Recently I have been getting 33 MPG Highway and around 30 city, the car is flawless....and I have heard nothing bu good things about the sedan, best bang for your buck.
theres car is badass.. im going to buy my new car this weekend.. but i dont know what car to get... the civic si sedan, scion tC or the gti mkV... can anyone help me
ive researched for weeks about getting a first car and ive settled on this car as a definate 1st candidate, but of course, it all comes down to personal tastes and the all important test drive. my parents are helping me buy one for my graduation. im so excited
hope u have enough money for ur car insurance,because this car is considered as high-performance car and since you're young your insurance will be high. I think you should get a accord coupe rather than civic si. =]
prismflash - there's nothing wrong with an accord coupe, but it has a much more relaxed driving experience than an si - I have a 2003 honda s2000, and I've driven both the new accord and the si - the si feels much more urgent - like it wants to be driven hard. The accord, while nice, is not as sporty in character, and I don't think its a substitute
i actually have this car same year and when i got it i was 19 now 20 but i got the insurance with my mom i paid 100 a month for the insurance but now i got 3 points on my record so now i pay 155 a month sucks but still NOT BAD but yeah the Si can get you into a little trouble =P
Does it come in auto? since im getting my lisence pretty soon and my parents dont want me to fuck up my first car and since i have a niece this will be good for me since its reliable
Only comes as 6 speed, no automatic. If you want a fast car, learn to drive stick, don't be like all the stupid people who buy a sports car with an automatic transmission.

"But to pass on the highway you need to downshift 2 gears..." LOL
I don't understand the honda fan-boys. Its a clean, refined ride, but it's not fast.
If you want fast, go get the new Cobalt SS, same price, 60 more horsepower, and twice the torque that peaks early and stays strong from 2k-6k RPM.

lol i OWN ss cobalts in my si not even a fuckin chance not to mention the chevy is a throw away car.

I don't own either an Si or a cobalt, but I have driven an Si several times and seriously, the idea of down-shifting two gears is nothing on that car, I actually found myself looking for an excuse to shift gears on that slick 6-spd. I'm sure the SS is capable of more speed and certainly more for less driver effort than the Si but things like -any- resale value, interior quality and not looking like a rental with stuff taped to it also count for something.

can anyone tell me whAt CIVIC is cooler. i want a 2 door but the 4 door is not bad. people say the 2 door are way to oval and look ugly. can anyone tell me what they think about 2 door or 4 door

Grab the sedan. The sedan looks better than the coupe and I doubt you'll lose any performance compared to the coupe. Plus if you ever have a few lil' ones, the sedan will come in handy...

I personally went with the 4 door is only 59 pounds heavier but far more confortable and you dont have to move your seat set up everytime someone needs to get out from the back.

i got the coupe sure the sedan is more practical but in my opinion its ugly .. i have a 2 yr old brother and lifting the seat to put him in his carseat is not that big a deal ... i love it .. get the one YOU like ...either way a great car

Really....Everyone I talked to thought the coupe looked less appealing...hence the reason why sedans sell more. And just take out the spare tire and you basically have the same weight as the coupe...

chuukesestink...my roomate/best freinds brother has an si coupe and me, my best friends, and his brother all love the coupe over the sedan.

I have an 08' Si Sedan in the same Fiji Blue Pearl. Great little car, and I'm coming out of my 05' Legacy 2.5 GT (Stage II Turbo) and the RX-8 I traded in. I'm happier in this then the RX-8. I also have a son - so the Sedan is extremely convenient!

I have this exact car, sedan and all, and I love driving it every second of the day. I can cruise around down or hit up the VTEC and race around. It's always a good time to drive, pleasure to own.

Buy an Si, I have an 07 Si Coupe nothing but perfection...Recently I have been getting 33 MPG Highway and around 30 city, the car is flawless....and I have heard nothing bu good things about the sedan, best bang for your buck.

ive researched for weeks about getting a first car and ive settled on this car as a definate 1st candidate, but of course, it all comes down to personal tastes and the all important test drive. my parents are helping me buy one for my graduation. im so excited

hope u have enough money for ur car insurance,because this car is considered as high-performance car and since you're young your insurance will be high. I think you should get a accord coupe rather than civic si. =]

Actully its not that bad insurrance wise. Look to spend around 200. Maby less. Dont know who u got ur qoutes from.
jtlovett27 4 years ago
prismflash - there's nothing wrong with an accord coupe, but it has a much more relaxed driving experience than an si - I have a 2003 honda s2000, and I've driven both the new accord and the si - the si feels much more urgent - like it wants to be driven hard. The accord, while nice, is not as sporty in character, and I don't think its a substitute

Only comes as 6 speed, no automatic. If you want a fast car, learn to drive stick, don't be like all the stupid people who buy a sports car with an automatic transmission.

i test drove the manual Si Coupe. it was soooooo fun! it was pretty smooth, but i really liked the interior and manual transmission.
