Default new or old?

yo i dont know but for some reason i really dont like the new civic models that much. i think that honda's apex was the 99'-00' models those were the **** and looked god as ****! the new civics look wrong im not talking **** about honda or anything but they kinda look like mini mazda mpv vans. I was just wondering what your guys opinions were, either if you like them or what, or what you thought of them. Thanks!

The 7th gen Civics....

I personally don't like them too much either. I prefer the 5th or 6th gen looks, 6th gen being the sexiest, but then again I might be a little biased as I have a 1999 Civic EX hehe.

I agree...92-95 rule...as for the latest, they grow on you I think...especially if you sit in those seats

I hated them at first but they do grow on you, or at least they did for me. I love my sixth gen, and I like 4th gen too. I wouldn't turn down a new si or ex coupe if I had the chance.

in terms of austhetics, 99-00 rules in my book both the electron blue Civic Si and the championship white Civic HB. In terms of how easy they are to work with the electronics, 92-95 hands down... OBD2 can go suck my third nut.

Both 92-95 and 96-00 are the best well even the EF's are nice. i really dont like the 01's +. it sits too high and the newer ones the 04's the tailights look like altezzas with steroids. other than that the have nice seats.

IMHO Honda went the wrong way after the 5th and 6th gen.

The cars looked too 'cute' and frankly, ugly with those big fish tanks as headlight units(again IMHO).

I had the choice between buying a 7th gen HB and a 5th gen Coupé. I went for the Coupé. Haven't felt any remorse so far!

5th gen all the way!
