Finally picked up my 23’ CBP Si last Saturday! I put down a deposit for a Type R and a 23’ Si. I was 1st in line for a Si and 10th in line for a FL5. The buying experience was pretty good. I was in & out in a little after an hours time including a short test drive to make sure no issues exist. The car looks amazing in person! I think I’ve only seen Car & Drivers orange Si around town but these 11 gen Civics look similar to begin with. The car had 2 miles on it when I got there & the only issue I saw was a light scratch on the drivers door handle but that’s not a big deal to me since I can get it out. The interior looks great also. I really hoped for heated seats/steering wheel when they released 11gen Si details but but oh well.

I only have 33 miles on it so far (I’m on vacation) but at the moment I’m not so disappointed with half digital/analog cluster. The analog gauge is still bright & looks great so that was good to see. The car is so easy to drive…. the clutch uptake is easy and I was able to drive it without stalling haha. My Evo X is manual but I don’t drive other manuals so that thought was always in the back of my head. I did test drive a 9th gen 10 years ago before I got my X but I opted for the X at that time.

The 23’ Si steering feel seems to be heavier than I anticipated but I’ll keep driving it to see how it goes. Seats feel fine at the moment. I made a spare tire kit with the OEM spare wheel/lug wrench/tool holder, a tire from tire rack & a jack from Amazon. I also installed a Blackvue 900XPlus front/rear dashcam because people crazy. I’m hoping for trouble free fun filled miles as I opted for this over an EN before I go FL5 eventually.

Looks good, black goes good with all of the black accent pieces and the black OEM wheels. I pound the miles on mine as a daily driver, and it works great for me. The steering is heavy only in sport mode and I don't like it heavy. I personally like a lighter steering so I go for individual - lighter steering and sport engine setting options.

Love the combo of the X and Si. If I had room for a third vehicle I would love to get an X or IX. Would you mind revealing how much +/- msrp you paid? I’m really thinking about trading in for an 11th Si but the prices are still too crazy here in CA.

Okay I haven’t played with the modes yet so I’ll see how it feels as I drive it more.

It looks better in person which was good to see! Love the black too.

MSRP + the OEM price for the OEM All Season Protection I Package (all weather floor mats, splash guards + trunk tray; $420)

Looks wicked in black. I loved my '17 AB SI but this color gives it a whole different feel.

Definitely see some small changes under the hood from the 10th gen.

Let me know what you think about the seats, I am only familiar with the 10th gen SI.

Clever idea to put together a spare kit, and the camera is a must.
Enjoy!

To quote Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade...'you have chosen wisely...' Enjoy!

Thanks! Yeah a spare was a must for me… it’s a simple task to complete if the time ever comes. Waiting for a tow sucks.
I’ll keep evaluating the seats…. I’ve only got 60 miles on it so far so it’s super early.

I have nothing but prayer where I should have a spare, lol.

Enjoy! Great color. When looking for your car in a crowded parking lot, blue helps.
