Replying to: blueiedgod (Nov 17, 2004 4:19 am) Why not? There could easily be an Si hatchback just like they have now. If the US version is going to be the same as Europe and Asia, then the sedan may look similar in front. I'd like to see a diesel for 2007 so you can have hybrid MPG without the cost and complexity. Maybe around 50MPG highway even with automatic.

It is going to be very difficult to make that look aggressive or sporty. The current Si/Type R have a very aggressive stance, with good headroom front and back. With the very sloping hatch in the new version, the rear headroom will be less than the current RSX, and the weight distribution will be more forward biased. IMHO.

Replying to: carlisimo (Oct 21, 2004 2:16 am) Yep, start to get upset, because Honda will move the Civic further away from the enthusiast and more toward the aging driver. Yes they are alienating the traditional enthusiast, but that demographic only ever made up a very small percentage.   Unfortunately, the new Civic will be improved at Honda's glacial pace - adding features (telescoping wheel, retained accessory power) that have been on offer by the competiton for several years now. High school parking lots now have written off the current gen. Civic and are more interested in Mazdas, Subarus and Fords (Focus). The Civic is slowly becoming "your father's Civic".

Replying to: blueiedgod (Nov 18, 2004 4:24 am) I don't think so. This new hatchback looks far more rocket-like than the current HB. The new styling IS sleeker!   I've always wondered what kind of styling people like us could come up with before judging stylists (who, BTW, have to not only think style, but practicality and other engineering requirements as well). Most of the times I feel we simply refuse to accept change, or continue to lug on to something that we like. Replies to this message: ohiocarguy (Jan 19, 2006 10:16 am) h2mini (Apr 10, 2006 7:30 pm)

Replying to: mauto (Nov 18, 2004 4:32 am) Muato - I am very interested in the telescoping wheel. Think they will add it?
#19 of 4597 by mauto Nov 19, 2004 (11:58 pm)
Yeah, they will add it. I hope they will add retained accessory power. Hyundai figured this out for their 2001 Elantra. It's a great feature. How many times I've realised the sunroof is still open after I've removed the key from the ignition. The Focus has had a telescoping wheel for at least 5 years now. Honda's a little slow getting with the program.

It looks like an artist's rendition with styling cues from Japanese market Odyssey (the frill and headlamps).

Replying to: wheelz4 (Dec 02, 2004 6:40 am) LOL, what's a "spy drawing?" He saw the car, then ran home & sketched it out? No one's got that good a memory for detail. And if he could "spy," couldn't he be clever enough to sneak in a spy camera? Maybe it was leaked, but that doesn't usually happen with Honda - they are very tight-lipped about new models.   I think this is more likely to be someone's wishful thinking based on current Honda vehicles than anything else.
