2017 Honda Civic Si

[doublespaces]

Like the Civic Type R, this is another factory boosted Honda, this one comes with a 205hp 1.5L engine with a helical LSD and costs $25k. Maybe we'll be seeing some more for the civic again:

I've been reading up on this car and it seems they are able to gain a LOT of power out of this motor with a simple tune and minor bolt ons. I'll have to find the article for you.

Yeah I think its going to be a big market.

Huge, especially for that price point. watching companies like VITuned work over many previous generations of civics go 10's with ease just shows how much further they'll be able to push this platform in my eyes.

I think this may be my next car. It may not have the prestige of my BMW but, it will be more reliable and cheaper!

Definitely is more reliable and cheaper, I need to do some more research on the motor, stock turbo capabilities, and see what hondata really pumps out in this platform, I'm definitely curious. I wouldn't want to own another FWD car though. I'm sure this transmission will need the gears replaced with helical straight cut gears to hold any power lol.

Maybe hold on until the R is available?

Last thing I need is a cheaper money pit.
