          I don't like the look of the coupe but the sedans look pretty good.....and with only a few lbs difference who would want the coupe? Is the coupe alot stiffer or something? Just always wondered that.

          I think the move to the k24 was a GREAT decision, I'm actually considering a sedan for my next play car. My biggest beef with the new civics is the use of McPherson struts instead of double wishbone. I'm sure the McPherson has less maintenance and maybe less unsprung weight but the camber doesn't change as "beneficially" during cornering as a wishbone setup.

              Looks like a camry or Corolla. These cars were definitely NOT marketed towards my age group, lol.

              Im surprised you were able to pop off that many pics. My boss is a huge dick about cell phones, especially when we take pics of the PDIs, lol.
              lol...they're not all taken at once. Over time, when no ones looking i would snap a quickie...hence the bad blur in a few... Even when someone noticed i was nerdin' out on it, they could have cared less. The shop is super chill at this dealership. But i don't take advantage of that...i still bust ass. Guess i can thank my pops for that. Definitely instilled a serious work ethic in me/beat me black and blue if i got lazy.

              To each his own. I won't say i like or dislike the styling, but i can say i am a huge fan of its handling characteristics and broad power band, thanks to the K.

              I'll probably get the chance to mess with a sedan as well. Should be fun!

                You beat on the car during the PDI?

                I feel bad for the new owner.

                I am still a fan of Honda overall, but there are now much better choices for the money.

                    Nah man. Just went through the paces and took it through "All Possible Driving Conditions" as required by the PDI manual. Getting up to Vtec on I-5 isn't too hard. And as i was going through some local twisties, i didn't punish her at all. Just got a feel for all the suspension components.

                    Assuming something like that based on a line of text is a stretch bro.

                      It looks okay but the shit is still slow. I mean it has good hp and all but still not enough torque.

                        It's not meant to be a drag racer.

                        Honestly, I'd rather have low torque in a FWD car. I'm sure you know my reasoning, Mike. Massive torque with FWD is hard to control.

                          It doesnt have to be a drag car honestly but atleast have 200wtq even for a fwd car. Its not even enough to keep up with the new maxima today thats not a drag racer and that shits fast enough out of the box and is almost the same price as this civic. They shoudl really try to find ways to up the torque but 140 tq atleast 180 should have been good.

                              The base Maxima starts at about $10,000 more than the Civic Si, which is damn near 50% more.

                              The new Si has a K24 in it, making 170ft/lbx at 4200rpm.





                              You're talking about the previous generation Si.

                                But atleast the maxima you get your monies worth. For a k24 2.4 it had better have atleast 200 whp. the new si should be almost 25 k after taxes and all the fees that they tach up on there id say your being cheated. Sure its a newer car and all but still your being cheated.
