BTW the current Civic EX sedan and coupe cost the same amount ($18260). Also, the EX coupe comes with a subwoofer and the EX sedan does not.

I approve. :thumbsup:

BMW CCA and BMW NA worked really hard to convince BMW AG to create that 4-door E36 M3. And it is nice to see that after all these years BMW may be heading back in that direction with an M3 as the 2-door will become an M4.
GOOD JOB HONDA!!!

Honda as "green" as they seem to be. They need to try harder to make a bigger engine as green. If you look from 1990's till now, all you got was the B16, B18, and H22.
Now from 2002+ they gave us the K20 and K24.
Is it going to be another 10 years for a 2.5 4cyl?
With all that money they make, couldn't they just build a new plant and start designing cars outside the current FWD platform, and the SH-AWD with the weak V6's.
I love Honda and don't get me wrong. The competition is gaining and could surpass Honda. If they took the approach like Toyota does, then I wouldn't care, but since they aren't I'm kinda worried.

Not sure what that has to do with the civic Si sedan.
But the new turbo engine in the RDX coupled with SH-AWD seems quite nice.
Who would ever imagine Honda would do something crazy like that.
Honda spends the most on R&D for a car company of its size. I am not too worried of them falling behind.

This is like a current-day, affordable e36 m3 sedan.
That said, it looks to be a nice car and should slot in well with the segment. I wonder if like the 4-door GSR this one will actually be a bit better on the track than the 2-door because of added rigidity.

One question.....Will the hood be that same color as the rest of the car or have that ghetto look?
Usually I like all my cars body panels to match. Otherwise it looks nice for the price.
