Default Just drove the 2006 Civic SI...

we just took one in on trade from my dealership, I have to admit it is an awesome car to drive!!! Almost made me think of purchasing it as a second car next to MY05 S2000.

Yes, and because all that matters in life is straight line speed, so much for the Si

The really funny thing is that it is true. Even in the corners.

Perhaps it matters on a track (assuming equal capability drivers), but I still don't think it tops the overall driving experience, refinement, and reliability of the SI. I wouldn't buy the Cobalt over the SI, even if I could get it for a couple thousand less.

I will still take the Honda. A Civic will ALWAYS be better than a Cava...I mean a Cobalt.

I will take an Si with four doors, please.
