#10 of 487 Re: Si Owner Here [phusky189] by si06n924s Apr 11, 2006 (5:39 pm)
Replying to: phusky189 (Mar 30, 2006 3:15 pm) I have been looking out for this car for over two years. I got my name on a list back in September of 2005 to get this car. The car has received so many positive right ups that it will take some time to get one. You should shop around and try to go in at the end of the month and see if they have one.

I've been obsessively watching the development of the Si Sedan for months now. I think it's gonna be a long summer to wait through though. I drive an 02 WRX and I'm wondering if any former WRXers switched to the Si coupe? Any driving impressions? Better/worse/same? I really enjoy driving and don't want to make a bad change. The WRX has raw power, but little refinement. I drove the Si Coupe and really liked the layout and handling. My only concern is the reduction in HP and torque. I'd love to hear any thoughts on this...

Replying to: pat (Mar 31, 2006 5:18 am) It's been a while...does anyone have any new information about the Si sedan? I've seen a list of the colors, but that is all. Nothing on the release date (other than "the fall"), whether the sedan will have all the features of the coupe, etc. Replies to this message: sik99 (Jun 21, 2006 9:54 pm) nj2pa2nc (Jun 22, 2006 2:16 am)

Replying to: ohiocarguy (May 04, 2006 7:47 pm) The edmunds 'future' vehicle review says they expect all the features of the coupe to carry over. If anything, i'd expect a minor price difference 200-400 dollars and possibly different stock rims(nothing fancy but the dx, lx, ex and si civics all have different rims so there is a chance the coupe/sedan si might have differing ones)   To support my price difference theory above, here is the pricing difference between the 'non-si' civic Sedans and Coupes(with manual tranny)            Sedan Coupe DX: 14,760 14,560 LX: 16,710 16,510 EX: 18,460 18,460 EX w/ navi: 19,960 20,210   As you can see, the dx and lx are only a difference of 200 dollars more. EX coupes have an upgraded stereo which might account for the price difference on the navi version.   SiK99

#15 of 487 Si Sedan as areplacement for Accord Hybrid? by nowakj66 Jul 23, 2006 (12:42 pm)
Am I crazy to consider an Si sedan as an alternative to an Accord hybrid?   Let me explain - I love Honda stick shift cars. I had a 1992 Prelude si 5 speed and a 2003 Accord with a stick. Love the Honda stick. The 03 Accord stick was nice but the rest of the car was a bit soft. I loved the handling and stick on that Prelude but that was several years ago.   Fast forward to today and I have to contend with 2 car seats for a 2 year old and a 6 month old. Right now I have a v6 Accord Hybrid. Great car. Fun car. Sensible car. But no stick.   The si Sedan seems like a dream to me - a car with some verve but practical back seat and 4 doors as well. Along the lines of some of the other hot 4 doors these days like the Sybaru WRX, and Audi A3.   I thought about getting a 2 door si as a fun car to go with the Accord but maybe an Si sedan could be both the fun car and the practical car.   At the time I got the Accord I looked at the TSX and deemed it too small for child seats on long trips. Now we have an Odyssey van for long trips and my car needs to haul 2 kids to day care but that is about it.   If I love stick - why did I get the hybrid? At the time we needed a family car that my stick-phobic wife could also drive. Ody eliminates that need.   I love the hybrid too. There are just to many neat Hondas these days!   So Si Sedan, TSX Sedan are contenders again. Even the v6 Accord with a stick is possible but I could not bring myself to get a third accord of the same model and my guess is it would have grunt but not handling. I know I should just wait 5 years till I have gotten the value from my hybrid and then pick the best Honda stick out there that meets the need.
#16 of 487 Si Automatic? by vincep Aug 11, 2006 (11:24 am)
Replying to: si06n924s (Feb 24, 2006 10:49 am) Let's hope they add an automatic option for the Si Sedan. Yes, I hear your cries that the Si has never had an auto. But it's neither had a Sedan either! I've owned & diven 5 manuals over the past 14 years (I'm 30 now), but at this point in my life, after spending countless hours in stop & go traffic, a little simplicity is welcome.   Plus, autos have evolved over the years to be nearly as good as manuals, especially in efficiency. Witness the civic sedan, with an auto it gets highway EPA 40 mpg, but the manual only gets EPA 38 mpg. And even though I've had extensive experience driving a manual, I can't say I'm good enough to draw that much better performance out of it.   Sure, there's the "sporty" nature of a manual, but that's almost it. It's clearly an example of form exceeding function.

#17 of 487 Sorry, no Si Automatic by tarnett Aug 11, 2006 (12:49 pm)
Sorry vincep, but John Mendel Sr. VP Honda was interviewed by someone from the Temple of VTEC (http://www.vtec.net) at the 2006 Chicago Auto Show when the Si Sedan Concept was introduced and they asked him the same question. The answer he gave was an emphatic "No, Si is NOT automatic." Here's a link to the page with the interview,http://www.vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=498786. It's the 18.9 mb file.
