I think they look brilliant, especially the Si. (well for a Civic anyway) The proportions are better than the last model and it's a definite upgrade over the FA1/FA5.

I hate the new Civics, but yours looks good with the BBSs and the drop! Probably one of the first new ones I've seen that I like.

I always thought the 01-05 was the worst, it was just a chunk of blandness. At least this generation has an Si (the EP3 isn't included when I say 01-05 since it's basically a different car)

Can't believe the Civic is already in its 9th generation. It feels like Honda came out with the '99 Si only a few years ago.

So far you're off to a good start. It looks sleek in the side profile shot.

the 2012 has had the worst ratings of any civic ever. I heard from Honda that they are already going to redo a new model for 2013. Would be a lone bastard year from what I understand.

They're not doing a new model for 2013. They're just moving the mid-cycle refresh for this Civic to 2013.
