Got me a 2008 Si Sedan back in December (2019). Funnest car I've ever owned.

As a 29 year old who's never owned (and still drives) anything other than my first car (08 Si 4-door) I can attest to a lot of this being true. Everything is accessible and usable, everything is spacious without being cavernous on the interior and nothing failed me except for the A/C compressor I pulled a shim out of @ 100k-ish miles just to stretch it to 108k. If the only major repair I have to do to a 21k car is a 1k compressor replacement over a decade and a half then I'm one happy camper. I wouldn't trade the 8th gen civics for anything.

Got a 2011 si sedan back in September with 142k miles the interior is in excellent condition no paint issues but the fun factor is legit that vtec sings and pulls well decent on gas very reliable so far I recommend

9th gen owner here, and I wish I could afford all the different gen Si's. I love this car, I'm an "Si" guy and my next car will be another Si. Either a old Fg2 or a new 18' coupe in pearl white. Every gen has pros and cons imo. It's not the perfect car.. But it almost is.

In my opinion the 9th gen shifts smoother, I love my 8th gen si to death but as far as shifting I’ll give it to my wife’s 9th gen si, I have yet to drive the 10th gen tho, at first I hated them, but now it’s like....meh 😏 I do enjoy my 8k red line lol

Honda is also known for making shit transmissions like the CL type s automatic and the craptastic Honda Odyessy transmission of the early 2000’s Don’t forget some of the transmissions in the early TLs and accords.. they were just as horrible as the CLs because some of the cars used the same damn transmissions. Buttery smooth they are not.

There's something wonderful about the 8th generation it has a soul from the steering to the chassis that double Wishbone suspension is a must the new Civic don't have the same sound or precise steering and they don't look as good as the 8th generation Coupe
