I wish the US spec Si would gain those wheels, brakes, and the standard body kit, and the yellow paint.
 
yeah I am not digging this either, it looks like a yellow football on wheels
 
wow that actually looks good. they did alot more modifications to the exterior than i was expecting. i still think that the normal hatch look fugly, but this car looks good!

I still think it looks ugly like all the new hondas... long, narrow headlights... but this one has been taken to the extreme... to me, the styling is extreme to a point that the car looks italian all around

the tail lights and body shape does remind me of the very first si... the 3rd gen civic in the early-mid 80s had the strip of lights at the back, and a clam shell look

si != type-r

I'm well aware that the Si is the US version of the Type R, but the Si doesn't have that stuff on it, so that would make our version even more enticing.

its obviouly a concept, with those 4pistion brakes and 20inch wheels

how can you be so sure that they won't be in the production version? like I said, its a TYPE-R, not a freaking si! the previous type-rs had brembo brakes too and all sorts of other expensive toys too!

dude, an SI is an SI... the Type-R is a HIGHER grade model that we never got

your logic makes it like saying the integra gs-r is the same as the integra type-r
 
i think that the ricers have made everyone forget that type R does actually means something. not just a few more hp

Code:
Si != Type-R
translates from computer code as Si DOES NOT EQUAL Type-R

and besides, the Civic Si in america is a coupe, not a hatchback.

I'm not really up on computer code, so I was a bit confused. I think its obvious that the Si is a coupe, an the Type R is a hatch, all I said was give the Si those wheels, brakes, body kit, and yellow paint and I'd buy one. the rest of the car is ugly IMO, except for those pieces.
