2006 honda civic... oh no
I've never been a fan of the civic and never will, but with 200hp under the hood of this new civic im just predicting we will all be sick of them lining up at stop lights to prove something, i mean alot more then they already do.
Honesly i think the concept looks better then the production car, een though the article says they look identical.

*My point isnt to rant about civic owners its to get your opinion, ya think it will take a bite out of tc sales.

*edit: I'll amend this so " jaydub" doesnt place me in the same group. It's ugly in my opinion, spec's are good for what it is, and honda's are very good on reliability (im a former accord owner).

ROFL you guys are hilarious. There's a reason that the Civic is such a popular car, and this new model will only help that along; especially if it does come with the 200hp. As for it being a POS, well... we all know Hondas are as reliable as Toyotas so that point is gone...

My point once again wasn’t about the reason its popular or its reliability, it was weither or not Honda will succeed in taking a bite out of the tC market.

If anything, nationally, it's the other way around. The tC probably took a small bite out of the Civic's market. The Civic is an established name, and the tC is still very new. The tC does have an advantage by being quite a bit cheaper than the Si (I should know, my last car was a 2002 Civic Si), with equal horsepower. Depending on how much they want for the new Si when it comes out, it might be worth the extra 40hp over the tC. Look at it this way - the average tC costs ~$17, and if you add the supercharger, you're at $20k. I think it's likely the Si will cost around that much since the last one MSRP'ed at $19,5xx or so. I think Honda is smart enough to know that they've got to price it competitively to sell.

guys get real
just look at that civic. its fugly the exterior is so disgusting
the price will stay the same, not going to change. 200 hp? so what. the crazy part of the car is that it has a LSD for such a low price.
what you guys don't know is that tC will be released in japan with a new motor. 2.8 liter brand new designed engine by toyoa . 240 hp inline 4 for the tC. I'm not makin stuff up. they'rea ctually sending one to US to have it test fitted and worked on.
and oh yeah, i never told you guys

I don't know if I'd call it similar numbers. They sell 25,000 Civics a month compared to 5,000 tCs, and Scion production is maxed out. This also means you'll have like 5 of them revving on you at the stoplight.
IMO, there's more similarities than differences between the two. And like was said, to classify Hondas as a POS is innacurate in my experiences. Just because people do stupid things to them doesn't make them a POS.
