2014 Honda Civic Si Coupe Review 

Just bought a '15 si sedan for practicality, commuting, tech and those windy roads on my way home. I completely agree. I don't need 300 hp in traffic. On the weekends, driving this car is a blast. Not the worst on gas either.

I think they might considering the civic is 4 doors only now

Haha ya they know how to work a car actually

Because this car is supposed to be a "performance variant" of the civic, so the logical thing is to try the "performance" on a test track... even when the people buying it will not use it like that :)

Julio Coello ok..autoguide reviews many "performance oriented" cars on public roads

RayzaBlayz fine but still its just a civic, on the open road will still be so don't worry about everyday stuff, it still will work well :D

Vtec* :)

I fucking hate the idiots that praise honda but misspell vtec ... grinds my gearbox

Fuel shuts off at 136ish unless ecu reflashed.

They look like summer only.

and the shittiest interior known to man

BRZ

Or pay less and get a Fiesta ST.

I am with the Fiesta ST. Or buy a used Evo =D

MrGovenator1 Agree with Fiesta ST

don't forget the nearly 40lb/ft torque. That makes a huge difference.

Tyler Hunt True, but the "new" 2.4L engine is based on the old K24A2 engine in the 2004 Acura TSX, which produced 200hp and 171lbft of torque. My point is powertrain progress has been lacking with Honda.

Aaron C Not really. The head is very different, and utilizes an internal exhaust manifold in the head. The problem is they're trying to meet increasing emission standards while not only maintaining power output, but improving it. And also having to keep costs down. That's not an easy task for a naturally aspirated 4cyl engine.

Tyler Hunt 2004 TSX manual gets 21/29 mpg vs the 2014 Civic Si at 22/31 mpg. The TSX weighs over 300lb more and is less aerodynamic due to its larger dimensions, so that alone would explain the discrepancy. +5 horsepower, +3lb-ft of torque, and negligible fuel efficiency improvement after a DECADE and you're going to defend Honda for what great work and progress they've done on that engine? Honda's new generation of turbo-charged engines is almost here (their new turbo 1.5L produces 201hp and 192lf-ft) so they can finally put that dinosaur of an engine to pasture and you won't have to keep making excuses for them.

they are

They won't bring CTR to the USA. Unless you are going to pay $40 for it.

I would throw down 40k for that level of performance.

Paras Kalra What level of performance. The 27k WRX will take out the 300 hp type r. So will all the Domestics pony cars. A lighter better handling Si in the same price range as the current car is the way to go.

that what a type always been

Ricky Vang I agree, If I were a consultant to Honda of America. id say ok guys, lets bring over 1 or 2k and number them like the Integra Type Rs. That way, you don't loose a lot by having tons here and the people who really want them can get them! If they sell good, then the next year bump it up from there.

Ricky Vang I see more and more. Hell I see the genesis coupes now everywhere. If that doesn't tell Honda there isn't a market for them, I don't know what will. I just gave up on Honda in the early 2000s as their designs started going downhill and their quality was only so so.

Stop comparing RWD with FWD..

hnnotyy tell Honda to bring back an integra or a prelude then. Ill compare whatever I want. Hyundai tossed out a 4cyl coupe and sells it in the 20ks and they sell like crazy so fwd or rwd doenst matter here. Honda has nothing is the point here.

hnnotyy I own 2 Honda preludes you MORON so you are the troll here. Idiot. I can say how I feel as I have owned 4 Hondas over the years. Honda is a dead company when it comes to fun sports cars or coupes.

Good choice man!

Did you do it?

@@amandaharpe9341 yes I did. I had it for 3 years. I lowered it on buddy club spec coil overs, did the rbc intake manifold swap with full bolt ons, 18x8.5 enkai rpf r1s. I did purchase a ct stage 1 super charger but instead of installing it ended up selling it for a truck. Was a great car, miss it so much. One of the most fun rides I’ve ever had.

fwd

fwd

Not going to happen.

Not for sure but it's possible. www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2014/05/honda-bring-back-s2000.html

Sean Mangubat Not going to happen. Just rummers. Honda management is only interested in profit. Low volume inexpensive sports cars dont make money. Not the kind of money to make Honda corporate bite.

I do too, but with cars like this Si and Accord Coupe in Hondas lineup, it would be a tough sell in todays market

SSC3034 I think the Accord Coupe was what drove Honda to drop the prelude and maybe the integra too. Sad

You would be surprised. 26k here in Canada. So someone around 21-24 sells his beater car or whatever car he had before puts 5k down and the civic will be 300 a month, pretty affordable

Clearly you dont add interest, freight, tax, air tax, tire tax, and other expense. On a .99 interest i paid $36,000 for a 2014 honda civic si coupe

The payment are 231 bi weekly for me plus another 200 on insurance. And ps im in canada too

Brutal. I traded my 2010 si in 2012 for a Infiniti and payments went double. Just sold it last week and now I am debt free saved up about 8000$ and I am going to buy a used paid off civic si

Huss Ali what country you in?

Well I actually never drove a manual transmission but it seems like it is tiring like for instance imagine driving state to state

Or across country

Thanks for the feedback I'll take it into a consideration when I get my car.

You'd by an SI with a manual? Why?

Exactly !! Looks way too high

lol, lame trolling

The previous si's rims were much nicer.

Yeah I have a huge beef with the new rims. they look cheap and ugly. Previous models were way nicer. But that's a pretty minor issue.

Sports Pick Predictions Not really....

sell the si rims and get volks. problem solved.

michael deadwyler Most dealerships can sell you different rims and tack it onto your payment plan. Then just sell the stocks, or use them for winter rims. Yeah, it's a pretty minor issue. Just weird that they would put such a cheap looking wheel on the si after a few years of really good looking wheels.
