New Honda Civic Si: As fast as the wind, as gentle as a breeze 

That might be a good option for enthusiasts that understand how that works and the effects on warranty and life of vehicle.

Randall Collins better off getting a wrx

Marcos Salmeron they aren't in the same class. While the WRX does start at $26k, to get the same creature comforts that the Si comes standard with, you would need to get the WRX limited, which pushed that pricetag up to $32k. So if you have the budget for the 60hp increase and rear wheels spinning too, it's obviously a no-brainer. But to compare these apples to apples is not analogous to reality. Plus the WRX well equipped is also 550lbs heavier. One is a fun commuter car, one is a more proper sports car.

It actually makes a little over 200 wheel not 220 and a hondata stage 1 tune will put it a hair above 240 wheel not 270. Definitely still fun tho

Th3Fizzle yeah wth!

Th3Fizzle More importantly, WHERE'S YOUR LADY LUCY? ;)

soiceyboy33 he is working on starting his own channel, be patient, more news on that coming soon.

lmao

It's not an issue but it seems all reviewers want to complain about it on a Honda,, I haven't heard one person complaint about it on a Tesla.

I think knobs are cheap...stop asking for the past so much you relic!

Thank you

Whiny Bitches that's why.......

its a civic itll last, whjat u drive?=

its a civic…when honda makes something its to last. people have tuned these upto like 400+ hp reliably with supporting mods. there is even a 1000 hp build with nitrous

Same field, but probably won't be as fast. Not to mention, the elantra is nearly 200lb's heavier

Yes but at one magnificent time this car's predecessor challenged the GTI from VW. It fell from grace and is being chased like a scalded dog by the Elantra Sport and Nissan Sentra Nismo

Prior gen and current gen Si's still compete with the VW GTI's. In it's current state, the new Si, given that it's already turbo'd, will make it much easier to obtain power. Though.. the ceiling is much lower in regards to the max power it can make in comparison to the older generations.

Without a high revving vtec motor the character of the car has been sapped and in turn no additional power has been added. The review embargo is up and the consensus seems to be that this car is slightly slower and much less enthusiastic than it's predecessor. Honda has effectively built a slower GTI with this new Si, I can't see why you would choose this Si over a Mk7.

High revving vtec motor aside (as it hasn't been seen for 6 years now), the 10th gen probably has better WHP than any previous civic(if my previous comment applies) , making it a better stock for stock comparision vs the GTI than any civic before it. Especially when you consider my previous comment. I don't agree with it not having vtec. That's been Honda's flagship for many years now. Given that's been the Si's heart and soul for years. It really bugs me, along with the terribly sized displacement.

Nah, I'm pretty sure the clutch situation is in fact the vehicle. The clutch on the Si is a common complaint as it feels extremely springy and light. Care to explain how that has anything to do with the driver?

AttachedSilver improved torque so they say....bs imo

205 hp/192 ft lbs.

The car weighs less so the power-to-weight ratio is better. I agree though, 205 is disappointing.

Well, fuel economy is greatly improved at least 😏

I agree.. it's very disappointing. However, if it follows suite with the EX-T variants, it may be under rated. Which would be unlike the 9th gen's. Their WHP (STOCK) varies from 165-185... Mostly due to the trash stock tunes that came from factory on those cars.

I buy all my cars at police auction.

Jose Martin Lopez Neri with the hondata tune you get 230 hp 230 torque with out modifications. Look it up.

Do you know what Vtec is ??? real performace vtec has not been around for some time,, most cars now a days have a form of vtec on the car, not that special anymore, hate to brake the news to ya, its not really needed when running turbo, it does not hurt, however this car has electronic cam control ,, ever heard if "I" vtec ?? everyone has a hard on for vtec sticker, when in fact the older motors didn't even have electronic cam control just electronic valve control, the k motors do both but only have vtec on one cam not both, and no turbo, These newer turbos motors are just the tip of the ice burg , honda knows what they are doing, what with the volume knob shit?? the controls on the steering wheel!! what do you need a knob for?? you dont even need to leave the wheel,

If you want an automatic, you've got a long list of options.

In an Si? Maybe a fast shifting dual clutch, but a slushbox?

who tf is this guy an automatic get out of here.

Realtime Reviews HELL NO! Learn to drive stick shift this ain't no Camry .

automatic fail
