  1. I have a 2016 honda civic ex and i want to add a turbo. can i do it?

    I have always regreted doing pricey mods on a car. I spent a couple thousand hooking up my Acura CL back in the day and count as one of the dumbest financial/hobby moves I have ever done. I was pumping every penny I had into that car when I should've just bought a nicer newer car that is faster...
  2. How difficult is the chrome foglight trim to remove?

    Does anyone here have the 2019 sedan/coupe. How difficult does it look to remove/replace the chrome trim around the foglight housing?
  3. 2019 Civic Hatchback LX or EX when arriving?

    the 2019 hatchback's haven't been announced yet. I'm thinking they'll announce details in the next week or two with delivery in a month or two.
  4. Paddle Shifter Thoughts

    For those of you with the paddle shifters on your Sport and Sport Touring CVT hatchbacks. What are your impressions of them. Does it help at all in driving or even enjoyment of driving. Do you use them regularly?
  5. Additional 2019 Sedan/Coupe Details Released

    Man, seeing the bickering in here between the 2.0 and 1.5t is sad. I'm someone who is considering a 2.0 Sport. Obviously I know it's slower but I have my reasons. I go to an impreza board as well as I'm also considering the new Impreza's. They also come with naturally aspirated 2.0 CVT's and...
  6. Additional 2019 Sedan/Coupe Details Released

    Agreed, I always felt the chrome only looked good on the green and blue and now I'll add yellow to that mix. I prefer the blacked out look on all of the other colors though.
  7. Additional 2019 Sedan/Coupe Details Released

    If push came to shove I'd prefer the 1.5T but it does come with the downsides of added complexity and more weight. I currently drive a 2008 Honda Fit (0-60 in the 9 to 9.5 sec range) so even the 2.0 Civic would be an improvement in a much prettier package. My Fit has paddle shifters and as silly...
  8. Additional 2019 Sedan/Coupe Details Released

    The Sport also gets the mid-tier 8 speaker sound system. I was worried that they would cheap out and put in the 4 speaker LX sound system in there. The sport seems like such a nice combination of the features I wanted (paddle shifters, black grill, nice wheels, apple car play, pushbutton start...
  9. Additional 2019 Sedan/Coupe Details Released

    Pics of the new yellow color for the coupes (They also added molten orange for the sedans and a new shade of white).
  10. Additional 2019 Sedan/Coupe Details Released

    The Sport models are also getting the paddle shifter and Smart Start / Smart Entry. Is that push-button start?
  11. Is the 2.0 really more reliable than the 1.5 engine?

    If we're talking long term 20 year old honda with a million miles type of relability we're obviously all guessing. However, with only common sense as my only guide a naturally aspirated, non-direct injection engine based on a decades old design that has proven to be reliable would be the logical...
  12. Official LUNAR SILVER METALLIC Civic Thread

    I love those HFP wheels. How is the ride on those wheels? Do you feel anxious about rim damage over bumps?
  13. Knock Control (Is it always working?)

    I really love the Sport model hatchbacks but I hate the premium fuel recommendation. I hear some on here have the sport models and use regular without a problem and they always say that the car has Knock control. I never liked that answer because I didn't want the car to do someone unique to...
  14. Weight Difference between EX Hatch and Sport Coupe

    I think I kind of figured it out from Honda's owners site. The curb weight on a CVT LX Coupe (The only coupe model with no sunroof and a 2.0 engine) is 2752 and the curb weight on a CVT EX Hatchback is 2950 so the difference is about 198 lbs (minus a few pounds for the wheels.
  15. Weight Difference between EX Hatch and Sport Coupe

    What is your best estimate on the weight difference between the EX Hatch and Sport Coupe. Keep in mind the EX Hatch has a moonroof, the turbo engine (which weighs more) and the Hatch in general is the heaviest body style while the coupe is the lightest?
  16. Rear Wing: Si version or Type R?

    I like the Coupe Si wing the most. The Sedan Si and Type R wing are second place for different reasons (too subtle and too flashy respectively). The Coupe Si Wing looks better in person than in pics. The first time I saw a Red Civic Si Coupe, it made me drool, even more so than the firs time I...
  17. Paint the black Stands for the Si Coupe Spoiler?

    Has anyone painted the black stands for the Si Coupe Spoiler. If I go with a touring coupe I would like to add the Si Spoiler, however with the touring having the chrome door handles, chrome grill and chrome window linings, I thought the black would clash (doesn't clash on the Si because of the...
  18. What grill holds up better? Gloss Black vs Chrome?

    Between the Gloss Black grill and the Chrome grill which one will hold up better over the long term?

    Regardless something is coming as Acura has posted it on their site: https://www.acura.com/future-vehicles
  20. 2019 Civic Reveal

    Yeah, the "ILX getting discontinued" was another annoying I heard rumor that took on a life of it's own and now the 2019 ILX refresh/redesign just hit Acura's future vehicles section.
