benson01 Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Saw the Civic Concept at the geneva motorshow.. I did take some photo's but deleted then it was that ugly...really not liking the perspex front grill... [/ QUOTE ] I dont blame you, it looks f**kin horrible, the current one grew on me a lil bit but I cant see this one doing so at all. [/ QUOTE ] The looks will possibly grow on us (remember the 1st time you saw the Focus?) But make no mistake the new Type R Civic will be awesome and a class leader no doubt. Honda don't make bad cars (some are mediocre admitted), but the Type R is their flagship, and a 2.4 ltr 250BHP lightweight Civic will go like the clappers. I'm betting on sub 6seconds 0-62, and 150+MPH. That will be put it right in line with the Scooby WRX. If they get the handling right and keep fuel economy sensible it will be a winner. And I don't think it will be £20k either. £18 is more likely me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Sorry but if you point is that the Civic will grow on me like the Focus did. Well, it didn't. I hate it even more now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_is_Back Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 [ QUOTE ] I would take a scooby every time, a turbo is loads better than having to screw a Vtec!!! [/ QUOTE ] VTEC is much more fun to screw than a turbo car IMO, especially with a gearbox as good as the Civic's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
