The Civic has always been marketed towards the same demographic. If you feel otherwise, the you have something to learn about the Civic. After a few years of the new generation, Honda will again throw the younger generation a bone and introduce a sportier version, hence the Si. However, this does not replace the fact that the Honda Civic has always been, and always will be an economy car.

You can say that people who bought a 7th gen for the purpose of modifying it bought the wrong car, however, many will say the same about your choice of Civic. Most of those people will be turbo import, or domestic owners. You see, it all boil down to a matter of opinion. Your hate for the new Civic is based on an opinion, and I repsect that. However, you seem to fail to have any respect for anyone elses opinion that differs.

Also, talking down to people and raising conflict , imo, are not what this webboard is for. Conflict does not cause understanding, logic, debate, and RESPECT cause understanding.
The people you say that will beg to differ are the very people that I can out perform on the track. Faster does not mean better, if that is what you are referring to when you say "Turbo, Domestic"

Is that is your debate, that the new Civic is better or just as good performance wise, as the previous gen? Clear this up. Seems athough you dont like the opinions here? Keep in mind opinions are generalzations, these are opinions have much fact to back them up.

All the #s dont show that the new civic is a better car unless you like the "it feels better" test.

The new SI you speak of I'll let BDC defend that, since this is his post and he has all the ammo on that Truck you mention.
