2006 Honda Civic Si Concept UNVEILED **CONFIRMED**

Looks like a midget 2 door Accord coupe, though it looks a hell of a lot better than the current gen egg-on-wheels SI.

I really dig the lines on that car, looks pretty awesome how they 'cut' across the vehicle. I dig those wheels but I am not too much of a fan of the middle exhaust thing, not even when it is on a Porsche. The other thing that bothers me is it looks like the spoiler is some psuedo-rice "wing" on the trunk.

yeah it needs to drop the wing. Heh egg on wheels. I call the current Si and Mini-minivan
 
Yay! 😀 I like it alot, glad to see Honda finally stepping it up in the low end of the market 🙂
 
looks like a Scion Accord 🙂

anyways, it looks alright, now i wonder would they bump the si hatchback to the same power output with a same engine (K20A? K20B?)

The rear disc brakes look ridiculously oversized to me.

I never understand this - first people get upset at cars having tiny brakes and huge wheels, so when Honda actually adds very generous brakes to a car to fill the wheels, they blasted too 😛 They're screwed either way I guess.......

The Si hatchback is dead (or at least, it will be once this comes out).

What's the point? The stock version looks riced out already! What's next, factory installation of neon undercarriage lighting and spinners? :roll:
 
I really like it. Everything but the unpainted hood and the yellow-tinted foglights. The center exhaust is a little funky too. The overall body design itself is stunning. Honda really has great designers. The flow and the lines are fantastic. The wheels look a lot like Prodrive PFF-7's, don't they?

From reading the article, it sounds like Honda is going to mate the RSX-S drivetrain right up. Should be pretty damned peppy with a good power-to-weight ratio. Too bad it'll be FWD 🙁
I would expect pricing in the $25k range.

edit: I meant Prodrive GC07C's (very similar).
 
In all honesty it reminds me of a mini-350z with the rims it has on now.

That thing is so sick. I'm definately going to trade my 93 Si hatch in for something like this one when I have $$$.

How do they plan on getting cheapass 14" steelies over those brakes?

Civic Si won't be coming with "cheapass 14" steelies."

You can bet that a lot of that won't be on the base production model.

Viper GTS

It is a concept car right now. It isn't in full production yet. It's 90% of what the production models will look like. There isn't even any interior in there. Didn't you read the article?
