ahem, i have a base model.


For what its worth, the Civic Si is a poor excuse of a performance trim. It has no torque, which is essential. however, it is fairly sharp looking. but that dash is GODAWFUL.

The GTI isnt a race car, its not a performance model.... its a sport hatch.
it has 200 hp, which is adequate. it isnt fast, but it is damn quick for what it is. and also, with the 6spd dsg, its impressive as anything. shifts faster than anybody physically can

Even my 5spd manual GTI would dust a Si, and its only a 1.8t which ARE NOT fast. (but fun)

and they will start around 23,000 for a base 2.0t w/ a 6spd.

I'd know...
