Looks like an Accord to me. :(

It does look like an accord. The dash is too busy. And with Ford and mazda having 240+hp vehicles Id expect a bit more from honda.

I think the outside does look nice though it doesnt exactly catch my attention.
First time I think ive read about a hyundai interior being nicer than a honda as well.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps

Yes I own 2 slow red chick cars & 1 real car!

If it's gonna be fat like an Accord at least give it a J series maybe.

I hate all the new Civics... I like the 4dr Si models, but other than that, i'm not impressed with the styling.
I'm still a neighborhood ASSHOLE!

I'd rather take the $20xxx+ loan from the bank and do a K20 swap and fresh paint, interior, suspension etc etc etc in an older Civic than buy the new, dead and lifeless models :(
