I want to keep this car forever. Addition: I was driving up a steep hill in the city yesterday and got on the gas because I was playing and the car makes a beautiful sound, and two people on the sidewalk yelled, "HONDA!!!". hahah

For me the 9th gen Si is my favorite. Because I feel it is an enhanced 8th gen with a better motor for an aftermarket turbo to really shine. Agreed there were some compromises in the enhancement but nothing deal breaking. It is just too easy to get 300+hp at the wheel out of a 9th gen without going insane with the build budget. And that is without a turbo. If you have turbo budget 400+hp is just the beginning. I also don't drive a compact JDM to hual human cargo. It is a driving experience for the driver and a lucky enough single female passenger. So yes coupe all day.

When you said look at all this space, that is exactly what I noticed about the older cars versus the newer ones today. In the newer ones, you feel cramped in most of them. I feel like my 2007 Si has a lot more room in it compared to newer cars and I like the feeling of having more space and simplicity. It isn't the fastest car, but it is FUN to drive.

That's why I love my 18 Si coupe. I love not having to worry about anything it's just a fun daily driver with a couple mods and wheels tires and suspension. It's spacious and so sporty looking. Feels good to get a car like this at this price point with all these features. People really be sleeping on getting a great car, not everything has to be about luxury or speed 😁

I just got a Honda Civic LX from '08, although I'm a BimmerMan, and my parents have a '11 X5, which is hella fun and smooth... but i love my Civic, that's my blue baby and it has GREAT space everywhere and it's prefect since I'm going to college!

Had a 6th gen, two 8th gens and now a 7th gen EM2 that i thought i would never own. I may go back to 8th or 9th gen if i dont Kswap my EM2. Really want an EVO X, WRX or Mustang GT but something tells me it will be another Civic lol.
@jameshaulenbeek5931
@jameshaulenbeek5931 3 жыл бұрын
If you don't swap it, the D17 in the EM2 is prone to head gasket failure, so keep an eye on that. If it starts pushing coolant out of the reservoir, the engine is toast - the blocks tend to warp in the middle, and cylinder 2 or 3 will blow to the water jacket. A swap would be best if you really like the car.
@FutureDeltaPilot747
@FutureDeltaPilot747 3 жыл бұрын
James Haulenbeek Wow, thanks for the headsup! Im not familiar with the D17 so, I will keep an eye on the motor and know a few mechanics who work on Honda's, so i will see what they recommend what to do as of now. I should have something done within a few months since i've had the EM2 for a little under 1 month now.

Look at all this space - I almost laughed!!! The Civic, especially the Coupe definitely feels extremely small in my opinion. All opinions aside though, these are very good cars for the money. Honda's still need love - I'm a VTEC fan! Good review once again :)
