  1. Just hit 555 miles!! How many miles do you have??

    At lights (vs drag strip) huge advantage if you initiate a rolling start just before it turns green. The rear drive has to stay planted so they can shift all the weight to rear wheels, while that would be toxic for front drive. They always get mad when you get the jump on them with your rolling...
  2. ACC 11th gen vs 10th gen

    LOL. yeah. No adaptive or electronic assist for pre 2018 models, which I like. Every morning when I turn on my car, the first I do is turn off traction control (and we're getting a lot of snow here in Toronto).
  3. Black 2022 Si delivered. Need ideas for wheels / rims

    215/55/16. Looks better then 18th when not lowered, cause gap (between fender and wheel) is not as noticeable. Only 7' wide, but they look wider (probably because of Westlake SA57 tires). For my base 10th (which weights 2700lb) on stock suspension, grip level is spot on... It's very...
  4. Just hit 555 miles!! How many miles do you have??

    I'm at 85000 miles and still on original components except for EBC pads&rotor for weekends at the racetrack. However, my powertrain can only be had in Sports 11th Hatchback with 6MT.
  5. ACC 11th gen vs 10th gen

    It'll never be as good as 2017's adaptive cruise control.
  6. One Week of Ownership

    As is, everything that lands at the local dealership is already sold and the display cars are all used. That's happening with no discounts and 'mandatory' dealer add-ons. Sales people are fighting with sales manager to give them something to sell. New car dealership are becoming used car...
  7. Black 2022 Si delivered. Need ideas for wheels / rims

    Si camp are never focused on what's important. All these pretty pictures and no weights. Anyways, my 16' RPF1 weights 13.7 lbs.
  8. Reason you went from 10 gen Si to 11 gen Si?

    From what I'm seeing, 11th Si is noticeably better then 10th in all aspect, except for 5hp which is akin to getting rid of the deadweight. Unlike 10th, I have no reason to bash 11th when comparing it to my base Civic LX 6MT. It doesn't pretend.
  9. Test drove a Civic Hatchback Sport 2.0 Manual transmission Boost Blue Pearl - Excellent vehicle, but outrageous dealer markup!

    I've driven tons of cars. Worked at a Lexus dealership driving every single car they owned from inception on a regular basis, Taxi Driver for 12yrs owning various sedans, been in the car street scene since the 80s. One of my car, I bought new (6MT Yaris) and put-on 179,000km in 2 years of...
  10. Acura Integra will have Manual transmission

    If they drop the 1.5T into the Integra, I doubt it'll be able to take sales away from the Civic Hatchback. They need 2.0t and 2.0na as the powertrain. In base trim, the 2.0na (with 6MT) makes sense since it'll be a closes spiritual successor to 90s Integra.
  11. 2022 Civic Hatchback Reviews Are Here

    I wouldn't hold my breath, unless they have an Integra with the same spec as my 10th Gen LX 6MT Sedan but with 2 doors. Given my RPF1 and 215/55/16 summers tires, I'm weighting in at 2700lb. Also, EBC brakes are small and lite, but the big brake Brembo have nothing on them. 10 times around the...
  12. Now See The 11th Gen Civic SEDAN Revealed In Patent Images

    looks like a good point A to B car.
  13. 11th GEN CIVIC TYPE R SPIED!!

    No roof wind diffuser, but brembo brakes and recaro seats. Saggy rear suspension and dinky tacked on exhaust. Looks like experimental after thought.
  14. Motor Trend's render of the 11th gen Civic sedan

    This really does sound like a proper wish list. But having 1.8T as an upgrade for the Si is dumb when they already have a 2.0T. If I was Honda I'd get rid of the 1.5T motor and just have two engine choice. 2.0na and 2.0T. To do this, they're going to have find a way to lighten and detune the...
  15. Motor Trend's render of the 11th gen Civic sedan

    Swindon plant is closing in a year, so if not a complete redesign, it has to be something significant. It'd be dumb to retool to make the exact same thing.
  16. Motor Trend's render of the 11th gen Civic sedan

    There's ample room for 6 footer in the Sedan. Personalty, would prefer none of the technology (except Android Auto...smaller the screen the better) and more premium but lighter suspension bits. Those techno nerds who become better drivers from driving a well sorted-out car are going to migrate...
  17. Motor Trend's render of the 11th gen Civic sedan

    Sentra does look premium. But I think Honda can still squeeze more out of current Chassis. It would be cool if they had an even lighter version of the base 2.0L 6MT. IF they do, it'll champion the brand for the next generation. The cars that instill brand loyalty are those that can give 100%...
  18. Motor Trend's render of the 11th gen Civic sedan

    Here in Toronto, tons of GenX Civics. For Sedans, it's about 1/4 ratio. For every Turbo, there's about four 2.0L Sedan.
