I like the new si because it has a motor in it that can back that si badge up, but i do think it looks kind of weird. The rims are like a totally different style than what most stock honda wheels are. They look like plastic. The fewnderwells look all huge like they were made for 18,s instead of the typical 15 16 or maybe 17 inch rim. Like the car sits kinda high but yet there isnt much wheel gap. I wonder what you will get out of it if you tried to drop it. I like the interior but not a fan of the seats. I think they should have went with a one peice like the itr or type s style seat. I like the interior and the steering wheel. The wing is too ricy and the sides are flat not any flare in the fenders at all. But i cant argue with 6 speed k power and lsd. My personal opinion id rather have an a2 swapped ep3 but thats just me.

Exactly!

I never believe exactly what a car is going to consist of until it shows up at the dealership, but they are showing characteristics that I am not crazy about either, not to mention the car got bigger again! Soon the Civic will be the size of a CL.

I am a little different in that I really like hatches and wagons, so the ep3 is great for me. The a2 is getting pretty cheap now also. I am talking to a local shop about a swap and I will be floored if the parts and labor for the swap are over $4000, I am seeing complete a2 swaps for around $3000 all over the place now.

fer real, a2 swaps run like $4000 for normal circumstances, im sure you could find lower

 

a local shop quoted me $900 to swap my gsr into a hatch. that's complete, drive away with all the nitpicky details already sorted out. but i would provide all the parts.
