12s is very possible with a moderate build keeping the stock bottom-end untouched. I like these cars alot, especially how they come with stock navigation

 

Get lost often? I like the new Si's alot and would love to get a chance to drive one. They look slick w/ the optional lip kit.

 

I was going to rock the Si by trading in my prelude, but the list was nasty, the prices jacked up, and the torque is FAR weaker than the lude, and it gets almost the same gas mileage...so there was no point

 

the cars are too similar IMO.. even though they arent, they are.. h:

 

Prelude: 2954lbs; Civic Si 2877...I mean the Si is lighter, has an LSD and is equipped with the latest and greatest in consumer Honda motors..the K series. It also has optional navigation

 

Prelude SH: 3,042 lbs
Civic Si: 2,877lbs
Prelude SH: 200HP
Civic Si: 197HP
Prelude SH: 190ish ft/lbs
Civic Si: 139 ft/lbs
Civic Si: $22,000 for navi :sad:

 

look on honda tech and check the kinda power people are getting on stock K series internals. The k series pretty awsome motor, and with the LSD and the looks (I like it) the new Si IMO is awsome

 

Oh I'm not debating the looks of the car or the secrets of the K series. I like to keep things stock and thats it...I would rather not spend another few $1000 to make a few more gains when I can just upgrade to a different car all together.

I love the look of the new Si...but it's just no justified for me to switch. I am waiting til my loan flips or is paid off and looking into a TSX or TL (At that time those will be much cheaper)

 

Are you kidding? I feel like I'm in a Dodge Intrepid when have to sit in one.

It's usually, "you want to drive, or me?"

"I'LL DRIVE!"

I can't stand it. The interior feels cheap and it's weirdly designed, and the entire car is ugly. And the blind spots. This is suppose to be a Honda? I think I'll pass.

 

Personally, I thought the interior was pretty good. The dash layout didn't bother me at all.
