all I see are people who are expecting a $30-35,000 car. Lets be real, the si was always a high schoolers first affordable car and something Dads got as a cheap commuter car with a little fun mixed in.
If you want more hp. step up and get an R or move to a GTI, Golf R which cost more.
You guys are silly as f. What do you expect at this price point??? Spend more money if you want more hp etc. I think the exterior looks is a def improvement
your crazy if you think the 8th gen civic was a crazy youthful design like the transformer 10th gen with fake plastic vents and line everywhere yet it’s considered the pinnacle civic. The design was the biggest complaint on the type R and I mean it was pretty much echoed by everyone except maybe...
Whoever says the 10th gen looks better is out of their mind or just spent a ton of money on a 10th and is fooling themselves with that fake vent hot garbage.
Well when you throw a little 1.5 liter in, I agree, it needs to be tuned lower hp for oem brand reliability concerns Honda might have. That 2.0 liter engine should of gone in but that would increase cost too much for the Si, unless they agree to increase the price of si, will never happen
I wish,,
And 2019 gti is 228hp not 220.
Btw, according to VW small car boss next gen mk8 suppose to be 150 lighter and then this current si will be even further behind. The si cost less though, which it should
Current gti is 3,000 pounds, si is 2900, so 100 pound difference. Next gen gti is suppose to be lighter. All I’m doing is pointing out how the current si could of been much better
For 2019, they tuned the gti for 228 hp, up from 220. It’s said on many car sites, mk8 gti will be 250 and R 350hp. We will see.
I’ll prob get a car in year or so and have to decide on mk8 gti, type R or variant they come out with possible for next year. Si too slow
More than just torque, gti with premium fuel has 228hp and 258 torque, according to their website and this car is outdated, debuting in 2014 for model year 2015.
New gen si has 205 hp and 192 torque and was just released.
If they were going to increase hp on si, they would of done it on the...
I don’t think they will ever increase the hp much from where it’s at, look at its history. They like to keep the price low.
Have to remember though, gti came out few years before current si. The next gen gti is suppose to be 250hp
