September 7, 200619 yr First Look: 2007 Honda Civic Si Sedan Nearly identical mechanically to the Civic Si Coupe, the Civic Si Sedan features a high-performance 197-horsepower i-VTEC® 4-cylinder engine, 6-speed manual transmission, limited slip differential and a sport suspension. Also of note, a dedicated natural gas-powered version of the Civic debuted mid-year 2006. Read "New Honda Civic Si Sedan for 2007(US)" @ World Car Fans
September 7, 200619 yr I think my heartrate and body temprature dropped. If I keep looking at it, I may just go comatose.
September 7, 200619 yr Sad thing is, this will still outsell the Mazda 3 because of that damn H on the hood.

September 7, 200619 yr It's a shame the Civic sedan doesn't share it's rear with the coupe. 190414[/snapback] I like the new Si's, very precise handling for a car with its drivetrain and price. I'd take a coupe, not a fan of the sedan's proportions and I prefer the coupe's rear also. Although if I needed the space, it's good to know I've got the practical option standing by.

September 7, 200619 yr Actually PK, I think MY city lays claim to Civic Nation... at least in our country... As for this thing... meh... looks like any old Civic. Wait?! Was I SUPPOSED to be excited?
September 7, 200619 yr "Nearly identical mechanically to the Civic Si Coupe" makes me ask why the Cobalt sedan can't get the high horsepower force fed engines and nicer trannies.

September 7, 200619 yr How do you know that??? Here in T.O. where it's Civic Nation, there seem to be more 3's than new Civics on the road... Don't jump to conclusions... 190411[/snapback] Maybe in Canada it's different, but the Civic is outselling the 3 by a huge margin in the states. "Nearly identical mechanically to the Civic Si Coupe" makes me ask why the Cobalt sedan can't get the high horsepower force fed engines and nicer trannies. 190440[/snapback] Probably because most buyers want a coupe in the "ricer/sportcompact" segment anyways. How many 4-door modded Integras and old Civics do you see running around vs. coupes?

At least Mazda has a clue (Mazdaspeed3) Edited September 7, 200619 yr by regfootball
September 7, 200619 yr I don't like the sedan at all, I prefer the coupe, but it's a smart move by Honda to offer the Si to people who need the practicality of a sedan but want the performance model.
September 7, 200619 yr How many 4-door modded Integras and old Civics do you see running around vs. coupes? 190551[/snapback] far too many..... in fact, I see lots of green Civic EX mommy sedans "modded" out Edited September 8, 200619 yr by Oldsmoboi
September 7, 200619 yr I prefer this greatly to the Si coupe... if it weren't a Honda, I'd definitely consider it after debadging it and removing that rear spoiler. It's a fun wolf-in-sheeps-clothing car.
