The 2017 Honda Civic Si: Is it worth buying? 

the mere fact that he used V-Tech instead of VTEC tells you how much you should listen to his review.

This dude rambles on and on and on. Whenever you think he's actually gonna start driving the car, he just starts talking about himself again. Couldn't finish the video he was so annoying.

Did he just say “... a four-door coupe”? LMFAOOOO 🤣

Been driving this for a couple months and I think it’s a very under appreciated car. It’s no track demon it’s a FUN daily driver with room to tune. I get great fuel economy, a drivers seat I ENJOY being in, easy clutch and transmission that doesn’t make you want to die in traffic. A lsd from factory, a more rigid body, great suspension set up, you can’t beat the value. It’s very light for its size which yes does mean you give up the luxurious touch of heavy interiors but it isn’t trying to be a Mercedes. It’s surprisingly quick stock with $2k you can really blow yourself (and others ;) away

I'll wave as I pass you by at your VW dealer waiting for your GTI repair.

"4 door coupe"

Hey! Thank you for this fun to watch review! I recently purchased a civic coupe 2019 SI and have been watching everything can about this car. Stumbled on you and while it's for 2017, I still got some great info. Thank you! And i love your candor and enthusiasm! Oh, and PS: i traded in a GTI 2016 for my Honda Civic coupe...yes, i have less HP (2-5 vs 220?) however, repairs will be next to nothing with a Honda. Hence my decision. Honda's are the best and only car to own. IMP.

Thank for the review. It was great. I own a 2009 Si and I'm in the market for a new Si but wasn't sure if it's worth it. Knowing that you are a GTI fan and are use to the higher horse power, listening to you say that it's worth it to buy makes me want to definitely get one. Well at least take one for a test drive. Keep it up! Just subscribed

how dare they brand the car with their dealership name. thats a no go.

I have 21,000 miles on the exact car model you reviewed and love it! The torque is there, but the best thing about it performance-wise is the handling - which is the best of any SI thanks to the limited slip and adjustable dampers and steering response. Not to mention great brakes and killer seats. For an all round daily driver under $30K, let alone under $25K loaded, no real comp. I test drove both tg he Focus RS and Subaru WRX and horsepower and awd lost out to the way the SI felt. Natural, whether being pushed or cruising. The shifter on the SI is better than the WRX. The seats and visibility better than the RS. The reliability way better. Mileage, space, insurance, as ll better. Price? A decently equipped WRX is $32 K. RS az bout $42K. I barely get a chance to let the SI stretch its legs, what the heck do I need another 60 or 145 hp for ? But great handling I can enjoy all the time.

How's the cabin noise while on the road?

I just bought this car a couple days ago nd its not so bad , its fast nd saves alot of gas..

Thanks for the review. Nice job.

Great blog about the SI for 2019 they come standard with LED headlights and the 1.5 SI platform is very tuner friendly plr hondata K Pro 27 won you can make that car a rocket ship for under five grand I love those wagons but you get that kind of horsepower and those kind of times you have to spend double the money the best bang for your buck and have a major community that support you the Honda hands down is the winner

It doesn't have xenon headlight

The sounds is not that bad, but it will never beat the sound of the old si. The v-Tec gave to the si a unique sound and it was way more aggressive. I think they should keep the 2.4 L V-Tec

Were you driving it in sport mode?

Does talk a lot but you can tell he is putting in a lot of effort in his videos. Great review, happy you enjoyed the SI. I thought you were going to hate it haha

Did u learn yo shift on a tractor?

Do u review custom cars? Cause I'm in spring hill fl and would love for u to review my custom 2014 si

Pretty big fan of my 9th gen, it’s got all the modern day comforts but it still feels raw enough to really have fun in

I intend to purchase a 2019 Si coupe at the end of this year, probably between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'll shave about four grand off MSRP and see which dealer says yes. The car will be on clearance and I'll get a deal.

Please put time stamps for exterior, interior, driving portion thank you

The steering wheel doesn’t have the si logo anymore

You had me dead when you said "but my book is small"

shift to 2nd , and burnt 3 years of clutch life

Not sure why reviewers keep saying it has Xenon or LED headlights. They're definitely halogen projectors.

what's that dripping under the car around the beginning. Hopefully, none of the fluids

just bought a 2008 si, nice video!

Front looks good. Overall it's a nice reliable car for the price point.

The new civic looks like a wrx hatchback right?

The car dynos, around 215 220 at the wheels , along with the trq, the car does not make 205 hp, stock , FYI

Never been a big fan of Civic, but I do like the exposed look in front, with the intercooler..

Not good review if you alreaddy start biased

Wahooo!!!!

Takes a turn at 25mph and says there's understeer. Come on man.

Do they make the si in a hatch? I'm torn between the si sedan or the exl turbo

The high revving engine in the previous generation made it a joy to drive, not a burden, as it appears you believe to be the case.

Couldn't the civic si be tuned to make like 250hp? That kind of power would be fantastic and might even feel more balanced then a type R.....or maybe I'm just tripping

I got the same car but in red. I honestly love the new si. Coming from a E.G. & D.c. the new si is a awseome machine

Si for the Win

still love my rsx type s

Hell yea it's worth buying

coupe looks really cool

It's a Turbo so remaps will be available.

You can get more HP with upgrades which is what every civic SI goes through Get hondata for like 30 more hp with +6 I think

People complaing of clutch slipping from just installing the ktuner. Out the gates good little fun car.

I am getting one so

This car isn't really about torque and power. It's more about suspension and driving style. Honda could have made it cheaper by not offering a bunch of gadgets that many people don't want in a sport car. People want to drive this hard. Or for the same price, they should have put the 2.0 in with no gadgets. If you want both, get 2018 GTI Sport.

Just got a white 2018 Si coupe 😁😁

They look nice but too little power for me to be interested in getting one.

I think OK your subaru and ford rs reviews you are going to start saying with its competitors now and relating it to the honda.

99 best SI of all time

205 is actually fast plus you can add twin turbo and more power so the max would be about 300

video was an ok watch, just one comment, you cant say anything about the civic only having 205 hp and say youre a gti fan when the gti had 200 horse power for close to 10 years.

I wouldn't compare the SI to a GTI. Maybe a GLI, it not a hatchback. Sedan or Coupe only. The R is the GTI (hatchback) competitor. The typeR is also closer to the same price range.

Hell gonna get one all white in three months

That poor trans. You need to practice running a standard shift.

Oil dilution kicked in yo!!!

That si doesn’t have any factory upgrades, it looks lame AF just like that, but if u get the package it’ll look better and more sporty

Is the Civic SI worth buying?? Is Kate Upton worth banging??

I THINK I SEE A 2 DOOR 2 SEATER FWD HONDA TURBO IN THE FUTURE.

Pretty fast for that price

Its underrated by HONDA The SI dynos at about 205 at the rear wheel which means its about 220-225 at the crank!!!

This guy is pro GTI let us talk about the gti reliabilty

Si seats look much better then the red ones in the type r

Takes corner at slow speed "Hmmm yeah it has a little bit of understeer" wtf... lol.

Good thing i still have my 1993 civic still runs like a clock

FUCKKKKKKK THE VOLUME BUTTON, I have a civic ext, and I hate hate hate that. Everything else is Probably the highest in its class the civic has ever put out.

38 mpg highway tho

Funny the type r doesnt have heated seats or sun roof

This dude doesn't race 3:05 lol

The moment he said he was going to be judging it harshly (instead of being unbiased) I stopped watching

many people pay to remove the badges. fan boys get more badges and people who have the best design taste remove them. so glad they didn't put badges on the sides that would have looked horrible. The car is mean't for the casual driver or the person who cant afford something expense to slowly wants to upgrade. The volume control on the touch screen sucks.

These cars Dyno bone stock 201 HP 212 torques AT THE WHEEL... thats 235hp 245 torques at the crank

Much better looking than the previous models? What kind of drugs is this guy on?

The 2018 Honda Civic si, "which is nice"

My opinion: its a honda meaning ENTRY level performance...not mercedes v12 bi turbo level.

6:17 a four door coupe really dude smh

They new civics don't make much hp from factory but they have lots of torque..I'll just stick with my b20 thanks anyways Honda haha

These cars are meant to be upgraded imo

The fuck is this guy talking about. A civic si is meant to LIVE in the higher RPMs. That what makes the tech so fun!!

RIP XXXtentacion

by the way.....you claimed to be a GTI "fan" and yet did not mentioned and comparisons to the SI.....but i noticed how much you were salivating over the pathetic "performance" of the SI.......i wonder why????

Rather buy type R

The 2017 Hyundai Elantra Sport mt goes 0 to 60 in 6.5 sec and the dual clutch automatic goes 0 to 60 in 6.1 sec. The Hyundai Elantra Sport is also cheaper. I test drove the mt and it was fast.

For us that came for the driving portion go to 8:00

In Canada, the Si comes std with premium LED headlights. Why does Honda shit on the US?

Comparing it to a VW? Why are you comparing apples to oranges lol. That's not the target demographic for that vehicle. The Civic Type R was the demographic pointed towards the VW. In that which case it destroys it on the track.

Honda dropped ths ball. They put a turbocharged VTEC engine in the first generation Acura RDX. Why couldnt they refine that engine and place it in this model like they did fir the 9th gen Si when they took the K24 otut of the Acura TSX?This is a watered down Si, to me.

front is nice...but wtf with the rear!!!

6:18 4 door coupe? its a hatchback.....

Badges? We don't need no stinking badges... people will know. :-)

Ktuner+downpipe+front pipe+e40 270 hp 370 tq. No need for vtec 🤣

You should have written down what you wanted to say before doing this, you're all over the place.

No. I rather have a K20 TURBO V TEC ENGINE

Why don't you buy a used v6 Accord coupe with a stick you get like 260hp for $15k

Why do people say "only 205hp" 9th gen si's make 174WHP... these 10th gen si's make 201WHP HOW IS THAT SAME?!?!?!. Do your research people.

Who tell u civic si is performance car？

It’s a Honda at the end of the day. It’s not a super car.
