If they keep all those specs and the same $19-20k price... dayum. I'm not real big on the overall shape of the car yet, but a lot of the little styling cues look great IMO. TSXish headlights =

Damn... Brembos on a stock civic. Didn't think that day would come. Not lovin' the styling, but everything else is pretty damn nice for a civic.

^ post the full size pics

as for the civic, i think is really nice and with a more decent 200HP engine it might start to be considered a "fast" car
and it also looks good

Not too bad. Better than the current one that's for sure.

It's cool looking but kind of too futuristic looking for me. Still a nice car and Brembos are a nice feature.

im kinda seeing the scion tc in there as far as the looks of the car. i like it actually the center exhaust is kinda cool and the orange brembos are sweet. is this civic going to have door solenoids to open them 'cause i dont see door handles in any of the pics.

There are two things I don't like about the Hoinda Civic:

1. It's a honda

2. It's a Civic.

I think it looks great...and an 8000 RPM redline and 6 speed sounds nice to me. A huge improvement over the current model IMO
