2011 civic si
Any news on this? I really wanted a 2010 Si but no one has any. I really want the 4 door version with navi.
I need a new car soon, company just moved an hour away and the S2K isn't great on gas. I've been going back and forth between the Si and the Fit, but if I can't get an Si maybe i'll go Fit.

Re: 2011 civic si
And is the decision really between an SI and a FIT?! Really....I never considered a FIT when I bought my si. I shoot raw fuel out of my exhaust onto FITS' winshields when I see them as I pass them by!
I would feel like a retard banging gears in a fit.

The four door Si is fairly popular, and demand exceeded end of year supply rather handily.
You're going to have to be patient with either waiting on 2011 or with shopping for a new 2010. :-)

Re: 2011 civic si
My S2K gets 19mpg, not great for my 52 mile one way commute everyday. Also my 2001 S2K has 65k miles on it, I really don't want to put more, want to keep it nice.
I want a larger vehicle, that's why I was gunning for the 4door, but also want it to be zippy, which is why I want the Si. However, I am looking to buy within a month or so. I have about a $26k price ceiling. Any other suggestions? I really want it to come with bluetooth, 4door and decent hp. I called Honda (not a dealer, Honda) and they said they should hit next month.

Mazda speed 3,
Impreza WRX non Sti
Golf GTI
Cobalt SS sedan
Neon SRT 4
The fit is not "zippy" or big so I don't know why that was an alternative to the civic si sedan.

That's what I was thinking. The s2k is like 400lbs lighter isn't it? That's good for mileage.
And is the decision really between an SI and a FIT?! Really....I never considered a FIT when I bought my si. I shoot raw fuel out of my exhaust onto FITS' winshields when I see them as I pass them by!

i agree on the thing about the fit; i can't imagine how someone would be choosing between an si and a fit.

anyway, if you're keeping the s2k along with getting the si, i say go for it . i'd have an s2k myself if i had the $ for a winter car.
i've seen a few people on 8th civic bitch about the wrx (non-sti) gas mileage, and how it's MUCH worse than the si's. dunno about the rest of your list.

Re: 2011 civic si
In my old AP1, I was getting ~30MPG highway and low 20's mixed driving. However, it is super tiny inside. I was ok, as it was my sencond car, but still, not being able to recline, carry any sort of luggage was irritating. I probably won't ever get a 2-seater again.

Re: 2011 civic si
I'm shocked you were getting that kinda of mileage. When I was shopping for a new car about 5 years ago I saw the window sticker for the s2k showing gas mileage at 20/25 (and that was before they changed the ratings).

Re: 2011 civic si
not to mention the horrible wind noise (already installed the tighter strikers), cant sit in the seats for more than 30min without my back hurting, rough suspension, horrible back window (can barely see out of it) and the WORST blind spots EVAR

Re: 2011 civic si
look at an EX with navi - it has your bells and whistles and 36mpg on a good day - with minor tweaking - probably better - I can stretch mine to 37ish with no mods to help it.

Re: 2011 civic si
It's a roadster...it's made to drive with the top down. It makes me want to throw up all over the place everytime I see someone driving an S2K with the soft top up, especially on a nice day in the summer. It's hideous and pointless. If you want the top, at least get a hard top so it looks decent.

Re: 2011 civic si
I agree with that. If you've got the cash, get the Si. MPG difference isn't that much, anyway. 6-sp, 200hp, LSD, nice seats/interior would be worth it. Bo matter what the EX people say. :p

Re: 2011 civic si
I guess you're entitled to your opinion, but I'm not a convertible guy. I bought the S2k only because there wasn't a rwd coupe option from Honda. My top was almost always up. Guys look super dorky driving around with the top down anyway (IMO). Was a fun car, though. Not one I'd ever buy again.

Re: 2011 civic si
Not as much fun as an si - but on that long of a drive - how much fun can 6th gear be? I am thinking responsibly - kick me out if you liek - but on that size commute - 36 plus might make the difference - I drove an Si - and due to my commute - too kthe EX instead - an amd loving it. Still zippy for 0-60 - but not neck breaking. Take it for a drive and test it out. - it feels great at 60 plus and still passes with zing. - Newt

What do you mean "how fun can 6th gear be?" ? It's overdrive so it's perfectly comfortable on a long drive.
After driving an Si, the EX is hardly "zippy". My sister has an EX. Everytime she rides in my car she regrets not getting the Si. Don't make the same mistake.

Re: 2011 civic si
you're right - it is not as much fun as a Si - I agree, but it has a bit of zip if you want to lay into it and get up and go. Not the same adrenaline rush - agreed - but a zippy ness that a corrolla can't offer.

Re: 2011 civic si
I hope I can get an Si. All the dealers around atlanta i've called said they rarely can get them. When they come out i'm gonna take my down payment around and say "I have a down payment and perfect credit. I want a blue 2011 Si Sedan with Navi. If you can't get it it, tell me now and i'll go somewhere else"
