[@oppos727]

I’ve had my 2023 Si for just shy of two years and highly recommend it to anyone shopping the segment. Its biggest strengths are its inputs, practicality, affordability, and overall packaging. The shifter is positive, the clutch is friendly and as non-fatiguing as could be, the steering is weighted nicely, accurate, and has a nice ratio (with minimal feel, but nothing that disappoints you on a backroad), and the brakes are intuitively calibrated if a little on the squishy side. The fixed suspension is also very wisely tuned from the factory to provide a ride that’s stiff and confidence inspiring without being uncomfortable. The fuel economy is excellent. I drive spiritedly all of the time and average 29mpg. If I drive it like a normal person, low-mid 30s are completely typical, and hypermiling would put it easily in the upper 30s. The 11th Gen Civic packaging is brilliant. Very practical, very user-friendly, and very spacious. The materials are satisfactory for the price. The sound system is satisfactory, if lacking clarity in the highs and more dynamic bass ranges. Its biggest flaws are its poor sound insulation, rev hang, and overall engine output. General NVH and tire roar are bad, even for the economy sedan segment. Aftermarket insulation won’t fix this, but changing out the stock, low rolling-resistance A/S rubber will at least significantly reduce tire roar. As far as power and rev hang, there are two common tuning devices and two common canned flash providers which are popular in the community, all of which “fix” these issues. Your tuners are Hondata and KTuner; Hondata seems to be the go-to for the Type-R crowd and the KT for the Si. I went with the KTuner. The two most popular flashes are from Phearable (the 1.5) and TSP “Stage 1.” I’ve been running a KTuner + TSP combo for 90% of my ownership and HIGHLY recommend it. Can switch between three maps on the fly (#1 stock ~17psi, #2 20psi, #3 25psi) and virtually eliminates rev hang. The power in map 3 is legitimately satisfactory with claims of ~260hp at the crank without any other supporting mods. It’s a great car for anyone wanting a reliable, practical, affordable, daily driver that can put a smile on their face at legal speeds. I’ve owned *fun* fun cars, like a GT350, and this satiates my need to row gears while grabbing groceries while still having Tardis packaging and not needing to fill up every three days.

[@oppos727]

@@weirdshibainu it’s the biggest reason why I could see someone wanting a GTI instead, outside of the obvious power difference and styling preferences aside. Ironically, I was looking at Golf Rs but wound up in an Si because it was the only thing on my list I could find for MSRP

[@H8TheDrake]

Honda - The Si should definitely be offered as a hatch. The original Si was introduced as a hatch in 1986 and remained as a hatch only until 2007 when a sedan version was offered. Hatchbacks offer so much more versatility (and coolness) than a sedan. Keep it as a 4 door hatch though. Please.

Well, technically before the refresh you could’ve gotten a hatch with a 1.5 and manual. Not anymore

[@xiondFirst]

​@@RelearnMathnah bro what a horrible suggestion. Type R is like 15-20k more than the Si in some cases. Si is more economical than Type R. The maintenance on Type R is more expensive, it takes premium fuel so your cost goes up significantly.

[@antoinewallace8698]

Civic Si Hatch would be really nice. Cheers on keeping the manual!

[@sdalexander8505]

For anyone considering the Si, but can wrap their head around why it only has 200hp still: -The LSD is what makes an Si special. You can floor it in 3rd gear on a curvy road and it rips you through that curve no problem. -You can use every ounce of power that engine has on every commute, take it to redline every single day and not have to worry about any issues at all. -If there are actual issues, Honda always comes out with recalls and TSBs to take care of their customers. -Winter tires make it great in light snow, and just upgrading to a gripper all-season or summer tire makes a huge difference. -Gets over 35 mpg with ease (91+ is pricey, but you should never put 87 in it) -Consumable prices and parts are all comparable to the regular models. The Type R consumables are way more expensive performance parts. -Si is so easy to drive and learn manual on. Just get it. Don’t pay over msrp… -The 200 hp and 192 lb-ft of torque is faster than 90% of regular traffic, but slow enough to keep you out of trouble.

[@hussali8838]

I tuned my 10thgen with k tuner got rid of the rev hang and should be around 230hp and 270tq

[@Steven-kc7id]

I bought a 2024 Sport 2.0 hatch with the 6spd manual. If the Si would have come with the 2.0 I would have bought it. Honestly after driving the 2 cars the hatch was the clear winner. Linear power (yes it should have more HP but it’s more than adequate) and more space in the hatch. I can get 40mpg on the highway and 36mpg in the city, if I’m not focused on fuel economy in the city I still get 30mpg. These new civics are incredible

[@abraham3981]

I had a brand new 2024 sport hatch just like yours in Platinum white pearl. Sadly the quality control was not there with the 6 speed manual that was made in India. The synchros were faulty or low quality and the transmission shifted bad like rocks pumping instead of smoothly meshing. I really wanted to keep it but I could not get past 9 months with the horrible driving experience and got rid of it. Maybe I got one from a bad batch since I did hear of some other person with the same experience.

[@BrandonK80]

Yes on the civic Si hatch. No clue why they moved away from it. I had an 89 and 91 and loved those cars.

[@munchy3011]

They never moved away from it

[@Mok3sp33d]

Because it would cannibalize Integra sales

[@steve8803]

@@Mok3sp33d The Civic hatch hybrid would be the one to cannibalize integra sales. 80% of Integra buyers opt for the cvt. So right off the bat they are not in the market for a hatch si(which would obviously be manual). People go for the integra because they want a civic with more luxury.

[@marks92127]

In Southern California, dealers are still marking these up by $5k+ (if you can find one). Integra A-spec 6MT can be found at or below MSRP, and they are readily available. Local market economics are often making the Civic SI more expensive than the nicer Integra.

[@GreenArrowNetwork]

Si 2-door manual. You get the hatch for free, and it looks great!.

[@danfarrington7727]

The previous gen 2-door was a coupe with a traditional trunk, not a hatch. A hatch would have been cool, but the rear headroom was already compromised as it was.

Ordered one in Urban Grey (the new Si colour). I like the new darker tails. Wish there was a manual hand brake. Maybe a little something extra to make it look different too.

Great review!!! Don’t really care if they ever make a hatchback, but the rest of the suggestions you two want are great ones, especially needing more hp to differentiate with the hybrid.

[@tommybusselle4991]

A hatchback Si is the only thing that would bring me back to Honda. I was a die hard Honda guy back in the day owning swapped Accords, S2000's, etc, before moving on to Toyota trucks, but I still miss having a Honda to rip around in on weekends. I just can't stomach paying $50k for a CTR just to get a hatchback with a stick. They are awesome, but way out of my range for a second vehicle. The si would be the perfect in hatchback form as it is much more practical for loading things like my bikes in the rear.

[@moiv8]

Yeah CTR brand new isa lot. I rather save up more for a (RWD) Caddy CT4 manual. Or try to find something used.

[@treflippa2]

Same here man. A buddy of mine had an S2K and rolled with a S2K car group here in houston. I myself had a 06 RSX-S and a H23 a swapped 97 teg. That thing was a torque monster lol I miss those old days. I went and test drove a new type S teg a few months ago and loved it but was sick about the pricing after looking at current car trade in (2020 Ct5-V). And I thought well I'll get home and look into the CTR instead and was even more shocked it's prices were more lol

[@mbacanfield]

I wanted the Si in a hatchback but settled for the 2024 sedan (tbh it's the type r I really want)

You had me with the manual transmission. Everything else is just icing.

[@keithkornatoski9162]

Thanks for the honest review! ... I'm 68 and have a white 25 SI on order .. I picked the SI over the TYPE-R because at my age it;s more mature (less boy-racer) ... I really don't need a zillion HP and the SI is kinda a throwback to the way cars once were . also note my first new Honda purchased was a 76 Honda CVCC Civic 5-Speed way before there ever was the SI ...Honda makes a quality product that isn't "weird" ... there are plenty of faster cars but I'm ok with that ... If I wanted primarily speed I would've opted for the Mustang with 6MT but MPG??? is certainly better with the Honda ... Keith Algonquin IL

[@keithkornatoski9162]

As goofy as this sounds ... if you can find and buy a better 2025 performance car for ... not $32K not $35K but $30k (USD) run don't walk to buy it!!!

[@t.k.morris]

Two years ago I bought the 2023 Mazda3 Premium H/B with the six speed manual and a naturally aspirated motor. Not nearly as much room but much more comfort, luxury and extras like SiriusXM power two position memory driver's seat and mirror adjustments, and a spare compact tire. And more probably. I have averaged 34.5 mpg from day one. 87 Octane fuel as well.

[@BoxingWave]

200hp in 2024 is wild!!! Might as well get a 02 RSX

[@TheBreakfastLover]

The Si in 2024 has the same horsepower as the RSX Type S in 2002. The Type R in 2024 has the less power than the Integra Type S in 2024. TLDR: Type S evolved, Si hasn't

[@jasonmoyer]

Meanwhile, all this power floating around and traffic is slower in 2024 than 2002.

[@CoolGuynumbawan]

@@TheBreakfastLover5 horsepower between type r and s barely does anything, but it is true that the si has had 200 hp for too long at least a calm 240/250 would be perfect for the chassis

[@CoolGuynumbawan]

but then again you can always get a flash tune and have 220 whp which is like the same as 250crank so all you need is the si + $700 and your right at the power they should’ve been from factory

I have a 2018 Hatchback Sport. The only reason I didn't buy an Si was that they didn't come in a hatchback. The hatchback is waaay too handy. One Christmas, I actually fit both a 65" tv as well as a 50" tv at the same time and they were still in the boxes. The crew at the will call dock were amazed they fit in there so easily. They thought there was no way they would fit. There is a ton of room in there with the back seats down. If Honda builds an Si hatcback. I will buy one.

A big yes to making the Si as a hatchback or as both a sedan and hatchback again. What I don't like about the Integra, besides the leather and faux luxury bits, is the added height to the the rear of the car. Kinda kills the point of having a hatch and removes the Integra from being a Si hatchback replacement for me. That and there is no need to argue that it would cannibalize Type-R sales. If you can afford a CTR and get one from a dealer with out being robbed, you will. If you can't afford that then you can happily buy an Si.

[@vlj1133]

Si hatchback should be a no-brainer.
