Default The New Grocery Getter from Honda

Not to shabby for a sedan though a 4 door now with the same 197 hp makes me question the weight difference between the coupe and the sedan for the weight to power ratio.

The Honda Civic Si Sedan Concept


Inspiration comes in many forms, and now the car that ushered in the modern sport-compact era comes with the comfort and convenience of four doors. It's the Civic Si Sedan Concept, and it will redefine the world of sport sedans with the fall 2006 release of the production model.

The Civic Si began with a simple concept: engage the driver with performance never before experienced in a car of this type. Twenty years later, the technology may have been updated, but the thought remains the same. The Civic Si is accessible performance for those who love to drive.

There are a ton of questions that will be answered in the coming weeks and months with regard to this exciting new release. To make sure you're on track with the latest information, we invite you to sign up for e-mail updates that will keep you current with the most relevant, timely information.

Key Civic Si Sedan Concept Features:


A 197-horsepower, 16-valve, DOHC i-VTEC engine with an 8,000 rpm redline

A close ratio 6-speed manual transmission

A helical-type limited slip differential

18-inch cast aluminum alloy wheels

225/40ZR18 high performance tires

4-wheel disc brakes with large cross-drilled brake rotors

4-piston Brembo calipers

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Wonder if Realtime will be using Civic 4dr rather than the TSX next year. Overall, its not a bad looking car for the price?
