New Civic..thoughts??

[stevethepirate]

i heard that base price on a new civic will be around 19k, which defeats the original purpose!

Though I'm pretty much married to muscle, I really wouldn't mind owning a civic as a daily driver, because after all civics are only crappy cars when you put a coffee can muffler on.

And the Cobalt comes with a monster spoiler?! How about noooo Scott. Don't be partial just because its GM. The car is freakin ugly.

I don't know about the base civic, but the Si has the same engine as the RSX (probably not the same interior fit and finish though).

I like how their bottom of the line car has navigation now. I could do without the artistic layout of the gauges. All in all it seems like a nice car.

And you can't do a pulley swap on a NA engine.

The Cobalt just seems like crap to me. It doesn't look good, it comes with a rice wing stock, and it doesn't produce much HP at all for a supercharged car wearing an SS badge.

Come to think of it, I can think of a LOT of imports I'd rather have than a Cobalt. If you want a ricey car, get a ricey car.. not a domestic immatation of a ricey car.

I'd pimp one, 197 isn't too shabby at all in a daily driver.

I really have to say I'm impressed with my mom's 2001 Civic, the interior is very nice and the ride is excellent.

I think the neon is sexy!

It probaly makes 197 hp at 7400 rpm and 110 tq at 5000 rpm, I would much rather have a cobalt ss or the srt4.

Has anyone seen the sedan yet??? Those are horrible looking.
