Fun Little Car!

2008 Honda Civic Si 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 6M)

I have had this car a couple week now and i love driving it everyday. This is the second SI I've own and really like Honda vehicles. The 4door sedan has enough room for my family of 4 with 2 car seats in back. I have been getting on average about 27 MPG and that is with some hard driving every now and then. The beauty about the car is that you can have a fuel economy car and then rev the engine a little higher and get a quick ride. The engine sounds great when your get above 5000 rpm. The 2 tier dash takes a little getting used to but definitely stands out from the crowd. The premium stereo sounds pretty darn good and the interior has a nice fit and finish. Very happy with my SI.

Before buying this car i test drove V6 mustangs, 350z & some other sport coupes. keeping in mind the reliability,fuel economy,resale value & price i am glad i made the right decision. Fun to drive specially when the Vtec kicks in car sounds like a Ferrari :).

Great Fun Car, Excellent Quality

This car is so much fun to drive. I want to drive it even when I have no place to go. The style is great, performance is great from a 2.0L. Above 6K RPM the engine really comes alive. Right after I bought it, I drove from Texas to California, and I got almost 32 MPG driving an average of 85 MPH. The interior is very nice, seats are comfortable even on a 2K trip. Quick throw 6 spd shifter is a blast. I wanted a car that had good looks, good performance, and good quality. This car has it all. I will be driving this car for many years to come

8th Generation Si

2008 Honda Civic Si 2dr Coupe w/Navigation, Summer Tires (2.0L 4cyl 6M)

Overall should be very worth while, the body reminds me of the older Lotus Esprit with the long racked windshield. While having to use premium I still already see the cost savings of using this car. Mileage is always in the upper 20's - lower 30's, and this is the sports model in there line, with gas approaching $4 a gallon the couple of cents for premium out ways the difference. It handles very well, corners great, even now I am still amazed at how spunky this car is, it's not the big "Hemi-V8" but let the rpms work for you and you can fly. I see people complain there is no power, my response is you don't know how to handle the car then, and you shouldn't drive one then...

Great little sporty car

Great little all around car. So far I've driven 8000 km. What I love most is the engine and super smooth clutch and transmission. The I-vtec is peppy paired with limited slip diff and summer tires. It loves high rpm reminds me of a sport bike. Car handles very well with little body roll. Makes an excellent commuter car if your looking for something more fun to drive than your typical Civic dx/lx/ex etc. It needs 91oct and I've been averaging 28-29 mpg mostly highway driving somewhat aggressive. The car looks great cosmetically in coupe form compared to other cars in its class. But lacks acceleration to keep up with its competition.
