Honda Civic Si Sedan - Still On Top? 

Jus bought the same one today and I'm in love with that car.best money I ever spent.

AWESOME REVIEW!!!! I've owned a 2014 Si sedan now for 4 months now with 6500 miles of driving enjoyment. Your review is very accurate in my time of ownership. I read thru comments on the fuel recommendations and here is what I have to say. I've filled up nearly every tank with quality mid grade gasoline from BP, Shell etc and have always averaged 32-35mpg and usually 65% of that is highway driving at 65-70mph. The Si is a great buy IMO for anyone wanting something sporty and fun to drive. thanks for sharing your review.

Nice review Carlton

This review was very cool!

Thanks for the video. I own a 2015 black Si coupe. Previously I owned a 2009 and 2012 Si. The 2015 is a solid car, love it!

I like your review style. And I was pleasantly surprised that you mentioned the location of the traction control off button to be a mature touch. It looks like you have plenty of headroom in the front of the car. May I ask how tall you are?

Excellent review! First video I've seen of yours. I own a 08'SI and in the market for a new car. I test drove this one as well. Everything you discussed was accurate. Mine also had the same feel suspension but Honda Factory Performance Suspension upgrade was well worth the money(i paid $450 new installed myself). Same with the HFP axleback exhaust it sounds a lot better than stock. I think im going to get a MustangGT instead. I preferred the older 2.0L over the 2.4L. It just felt a lot more fun to drive and that sound...can't beat it! Keep up the good work I subscribed and if you could do a Mustang review that would be awesome lol.

Awesome video and keep it coming. I'll work on the details of the driving characteristics to be more tailored to enthusiasts drivers but overall a awesome video

love this dude

Hey man told review keep it up

Just got a 2015 Si Coupe about a month ago... i prefer the 9th Gen better than the 10th Gen Turbo Si

Your video helped me decide whether to buy this car or not... It's been almost a year and I'm loving my 2015 si

Good review

Dropped the 18 inch rims in mine got 17’s and coilovers and it’s much better now

Very well done!

Lmao he reminds me of Carlton! LMFAO!!

Thank you for the review, am thinking this is the car I want. I will say though by numbers it is not the fastest but I am planning on a few bolt-ons that will make it fast and more fun to drive but not hurt the longevity of the Si. Again thank you for the review :)

nice video

This car is fun as hell to drive. I own a blue Si 2015 and I have no regrets getting it especially for the affordable price. I just can't wait till I save up for some turbo, once i get that it'll truly be a beast car!!

My cousin got an Si and its a great car

the acceleration is better than a lexus is 250

That nighthawk black (?) looks nice. Helps hide some of the height of the car. The GTI-style wheels are "OK".

is is my dream car

Good

I wonder if the exhaust system of this car fit on my 2015 Honda Civic exl..thank you

This is a good daily driving car though I wish it had better mpg. I would probably only put in premium fuel even though as you stated it's recommended not required. Great review.

Wow, civic just getting up to the lude's HP.... smh why'd they have to discontinue the Prelude.

Personally i have owned a 2009 civic si coupe (fg2) and currently a 2012 civic si sedan (fb6). I dont understand all the hate, love them both. the k20 is fun to drive at WOT, its geared alot lower and youll be running 4k rpms cruising on the freeway. The k24 is a torque monster in comparison, no matter what gear your in- step on the gas and it'll move. Its geared alot higher and youll be cruising closer to 3k rpms on the freeway. its a much smoother powerband. Handling? 8th gen wins as the springs are much stiffer, 9th gen wins ride quality. Interior? I think the 9th wins in terms of materials and quality. The suede was hard to keep clean in the 8th. My 9th is lacking a thermostat reading along with the shift light as my 8th had. Radio? Its the same except for bluetooth. The newer 9th gens with the camera setups are a little different. They do about the same on gas, not that i pay much attention. Thats bout the biggest differences i noticed over the two. With lowering springs my 9th handles fantastic and is a blast to drive. Its super comforatable on the road and feels "planted" at higher speeds while my chevy cruze felt like a kite drifting all over the road.

I like the car

Honestly people are always saying how you can go with a faster car than the si, but this car is an amazing daily driver which is what people buy the car for. Sorry but no car in the price range has a more comfortable cabin than the 2014 si

That 0-60 time is amazing. That's competitive with the Mercedes-Benz C250.

If it came in AWD, I would consider buying one. I live in the north east so for the winters we get up here, AWD is pretty much needed in a car.

Since is a start push button keyless only. If runs out of battery, can you still start the car with the clutch by pushing it? or that advantage is gone with all that bullcrap pretty electronic gadget?

The 8th gen had the k20z3

Fun car, but the price tag is so close to the ford focus st and the speed3, which gets you more power more torque with turbo charged engines and more trunk space for being a hatchback.. I guess only reason you would buy this is either if you hate hatchbacks or planning to slap a turbo charger on Si.. idk

Slap a turbo on it, maybe space out the gears a little.. then it becomes fun!

what the name of music ?

Just wondered if I would fit in civic si. I am 6 foot 1

To all the 9th gen SI owners. How do yall like your SI now? Do some of you still own it or did you trade it in for a newer car.

I didn't know but you can buy a Si in sedan form I have always seen si's in coupe form

2019: competition has more features and horsepower than the civic si 9th gen civic si: VTEC!!!

Gimme a regular high Gas Mileage Civic in a Si Bosy and Im sold

I'm sorry but the engine is not the same as what was n the previous generation Si the previous generation Si had a 2.0L inline 4 THIS generation (2012-2015) has a 2.4L inline 4 I think you meant to say the the previous YEAR civic has the same engine. which in that case yes it does, with a modified exhaust for better flow which gives the extra 4 Torque and 4 Horsepower.

I think the Si competes more with the Elantra GT and Kia Forte 5 these days. It cannot keep up with the GTi, Mini Cooper, Focus ST all of which have turbo power. The Si comes with all season tires...

I thought that this was a good neutral-perspective review. It seemed like the host is in to other types of cars.

Question is, can I fit a body in the back?

not too many 8gen will go to 9 gen

this guys a fuckin G

In my country Costa Rica, the price of this car is $37k-40k!!!!!!!!! Faco is the authoriced seller... and that is the price to get 1 of this.. here all the cars has the double of the price in usa! for that reason, get a new car is a wasted of money....

just to correct, this is not the same engine as in the previous generation si... that was a 2.0L, not a 2.4

Both Car and Driver and Motor Trend say that the 10th generation SI is the fastest SI. This guy comes up with 0 to 60 and quarter mile times that are faster than reported 10th generation times. Hmmmm.

25k? i must have screwed my dealer i got for 22,500 lol

hahaha anyone else think this guy looks like big boi from OutKast?

thanks for not revving the hell out of the engine!

Not the fastest, best ergonomics and fit and finish tied with gti. Tops in reliability

I finally went to the Honda dealership to see the 2015 Civic Si yesterday....I was shocked at how cheap the seat adjusters and door trim handles felt/so light weight and flimsy....the only thing that felt of good quality was the shit knob. I thought it felt like a Cobalt inside...cant believe how cheap the materials felt! Is this the Honda of today???

Rien en français je suis du Québec

Um Um Ah um ah um ah um.. Enough already!!

No offense but the Si hasn't been on top for over a decade....the GTi was always quicker than the Si, also the MS3 has been on top since 2007...quicker and better than both the Si and GTi...although it is in transition at the moment. Also Cobalt SS smoked the Si during it's run.....Si has been a back field player for well over a decade...a day late and a dollar short (too little hp).

AutoAcademics needs to do some academic research before making any more videos. This does NOT have the same engine as the previous generation Si. Instead, this is a 2.4L vs 2.0L engine. It also only makes a few more hp but a bit more torque. The interior is uglier than before, the suspension softer, and the exterior -- well it's just awful. The hideous plastic shift knob needs to be thrown in the trash and forgotten about. When every other car in it's category has been turbocharged for the better part of almost a decade now, Honda really needs to get with the program. They wonder why sales are so dismal? The last gen was a great car. While it lacked torque, it made up for it in it's engine's character. The K20z3 loved to be revved. You could say the same about this new engine, but it cannot even compare with the K20. The K20 could turn 8300RPM out of the factory, and it could do so all day long. With flash pro you could easily get this engine to turn 8500-9000RPM and still be safe. The "new" K24 is so dull in comparison. It's appx 7000RPM redline is just pathetic by Honda standards. At least if they didn't want to go turbo, they could've left the high-end vtec kick over and redline. The only thing that is performance oriented about this Si is the LSD, but the last gen had one too. I really am hoping Honda gets it together with the next gen Si...if we even get one in the North American market. They have got to go turbo with the next model, and the new Civic Type-R's 2.0T would be a great place to start. The funky spaceship design needs to be dropped in place of a more handsome and traditional look. I wouldn't mind a hatch honestly. They need to benchmark the MkVII GTI for comfort, polish, and performance. The only thing they need to save from this generation is the Honda reliability and the real LSD.

"either way it's built by Honda" At the end What about the previous model and then you just say it was cheap??????. In the beginning.

Premium fuel isn't recommended it is required!!!!

gti focus st fiesta st betterhandling faster

HAHA you drive with seat belt on

Just my taste, the previous gen was better. This one is a bit too quiet and looks a bit feminine.

as ugly a car as ever! great
