There is a difference in the lightning system for the European market. We get adaptive LED Headlights with cornering light. The cornering light is placed where the sidemarkers are for the US version.
This powertrain is probably alot less fun than the 1.5T.
Maybe it's to 0-60 quicker than the Si, but i doubt it's the same fun driving experience, as the engine has to rev in high rpm to produce enough electric power for the electric motors.
It doesn't make sense to have VTEC on the intake with turbo and VTC.
I doubt the engine would benefit with a noticeable power gain. Honda didn't use VTEC on the intake even on CTR and NSX.
How sporty does it drive compared to your SI?
Do you feel any difference?
How tall are you? I'm 6 foot 4 and the Civic seats always have been on the smaller side compared to the Accord ones.
Do you think this generation has better seats for taller people?
Yes, but only on the exhaust side. So you will probably hear almost nothing. The K20C1 from the Type R has also exhaust VTEC, but you can only hear it a little bit in some situations.
With modification you will probably hear more.
I really like the 11th Gen Design. Clean curves, nothing unusual with great proportions.
The white one with black rims does look great. I would not choose black because it makes the civic too boxy.
There is just one thing that doesn't make sense. Why develop a tailight in 2019 (yes, 2019, because the light design is usually about 1 to maximum 2 years before reveal fix) without LED turn signal / reverse light. There isn't any cost or engineering savings with standard bulbs compared to LED...
I really like the 11th Gen sedan design. The design is more refined and not over exhilarating (or looking like a modern Fiat Multipla e.g. the new elantra).
I would buy it as it is on the pictures. Other wheels, some black design elements and it will look better.
BTW: Chinese can't keep...
I really like the 11th gen design. After looking on it for a while, every time it get's better looking. It took me almost a year to like the 10th gen design and to think about buying one. But this time, after a couple of hours, it gives me a feeling of "i want one in my drive way".
What i have...
There are new spy pictures from the sedan:

The 10th gen interior materials are a disaster too.
Just sit in a 2020 Mazda 3 and then go to a 2020 Honda Civic (same price range). It's very disappointing.
