Looks like the new Civic got hit by the ugly stick

Damn, that's awful.

Also looks very portly and clumsy.

Horrible. Good thing I wasn't in the market for one.

It isn't so bad. I want to see it from the front first.

Looks like it came from the same people who made the current si. *shrug*

Ironically, I was just thinking how I thought it really didn't look *that* bad.

I did notice that they included plenty of plain panels that will lend themselves well to aftermarket body kits.

If the rumor mill is correct, the new Si sounds like a fun little car. Back to coupe, with the powerplant it deserves. (Yes, I know that the first Si was a hatch, but still)

The other pics I have seen look pretty good. If gas continues to get worse I just may have to buy one.
