I lean more to some brands than others but if something is nice I will admit it. I don't even have an Si. I use to but now I have an s2000...I miss the car so much, and I am actually debating picking one up in the future...and I'm a very picky person. Its peppy stock, not stupid fast. With bolt ons it can be a quick little car and give some of the bigger boys a run for its money all without a turbo, being reliable, and handling well, and being really fun to drive. This review is giving an impression that the car is really slow but its not. It moves well for what it is. What does he expect out of a 20,000 dollar civic? Lets go test drive a prius and complain about speed, drive my s2000 and complain about space or drive a terminatior cobra and complain about gas milage. Some vw gti owners laugh and call it slow when it's acutally pulling the same exact 1/4 mile times as they are stock. I don't see why people compare the honda to much faster cars, it was never suppose to run with those. Everyone seems to benchmark their cars to the Si which I find quite hilarious. The civic has a big part in the import/tuner scene before all these newer cars came around....people figured out you can make a slower import beat a faster car pretty easily. Everyone was taking their old datsuns and making them quick. In the 90's so many people modded hondas and recently moved onto bigger and better things which is cool, but don't forget where some of you came from( not at anyone particular)This reminds me of the whole reason I ever got into Honda. They are constantly made fun of and under estimated, but in the right hands they can be great cars.
