The 2006 Civic launches in the U.S. this fall and will include a 4-door sedan, 2-door coupe and Si Coupe, Hybrid and a natural gas version, the GX.

The Si Coupe concept is powered by a 200 hp, 16-valve, DOHC, I-VTEC engine with an 8,000 rpm redline. Getting power to the road is helped by a helical-type limited slip differential.

Other Si features are 18-inch wheels and tires, 4 wheels discs, cross-drilled rotors and 4-piston Brembo calipers.

That's actually kinda cool lookin'! Def. one of Honda's better designs lately.

sex..

 

[dohcvtec_accord]

Well, it looks better than most of Honda's stuff these days. Not like THAT is tough to do.

 

[chestercheeto48]

hmmm...........wonder what the base price will be?

It looks better than anything else Honda has puked up lately, but it still looks like balls. I'm surprised they didn't put euros and a fart can on along with the 8teenz...y0.

LSD!!! stock I want me one. I hope they continue to use the k-series in the si. (not like they would switch so soon but you never know) Mmmmm rsx-s engine swap with LSD

That car definately is a step in the right direction for honda. Lately, all their cars suck.

You have to buy the H Tuned package to get the Altezza's and the fart can.

i actually like it... I've hated every new Civic since 95.

Nice. Hopefully this will shut up all the people who think the "spy photos" that look like a Peugeot are really of a 2006 Civic...

 

[ef9civicgen4]

looks damn good. nice hood, and finally the civic has decent power.

 

[phunky.buddha]

It is still a "concept", but it'll probably get that engine. Honda would be stupid not to use it.

 

[Slammed90Lude]

i wonder if it will be at the philly car show- I'll report back tomorrow night

 

[CRX-YEM]

It could do without the fog lamps.
other than that IDB

 

[dohch22a4]

Not a hatch?

Oh well, I think it looks really good overall.

(more than likely K20A) DOHC i-VTEC engine rated @ 200hp? Yes, please. Helical LSD? Yes, please. Four-piston Brembos? Holy crap. Uh... yes... please?!

I'm not a fan of the 18's or the goofy little wing, but hey- the pros outweigh the cons and I think it's a MUCH better looking car than the 01-05 Civics.

 

[racintweek]

not a fan of coupes but that is sexy

 

[MadMaXXX]

is it just me or does any1 else think it looks too much like the rsx in the profile

Same here. It has better lines than the tC though.
