More hatch glass pics...
Am I seeing correctly that the retractable privacy screen is customizable to pull from the left to right as well as right to left? So it's removable as well?And here are the remaining pics... Some two tone interior shots too!!
Yes... Watch the video I just shot and posted!Am I seeing correctly that the retractable privacy screen is customizable to pull from the left to right as well as right to left? So it's removable as well?
It has significantly worse mileage than the sedan. Probably on the premise that it actually does more poorly and that EPA testing for 2017 is more strict.Does the Hatch have better MPG than the Sedan? I saw the website list 39/30 vs. 40/27 for the sedan.
Also, does it weight less than the sedan?
Where are you getting "significantly worse" from, Honda has the 3 models listed as 38/26 for the coupe, 40/27 for the sedan, and 39/30 for the hatch.It has significantly worse mileage than the sedan.

If you want the manual and green in a coupe, the 2017 models should have that option. However, I understand how you feel. I really wanted to get a sport hatch, but it just seems so lacking in features compared to the EX. I love how it looks exterior-wise, but the interior features are almost the same as my 8th gen Si (I'd be losing the sunroof, and stereo; but gain bluetooth and rear view camera). I've been waiting for a long time to get some news on the Si so I can decide if I want to wait even longer for its release. I'm also at a decision if I want to get a quick/economic daily driver or something more performance focused and fast that I can autocross with. At this point, a car like the WRX/GTI looks more tempting than the more economic Civic even though the costs/class is completely different.Well fuck it then I've been waiting for a 1.5T with a sped in green, and now I find out I can have 1.5T/6spd OR green? Fuck it. Far as I'm concerned Honda is just being jack asses with this car. No Si news, no manual 1.5T until now(and I can't have the color I want), and no type-R news.
Screw it I'm just going to get an Ecoboost Mustang or GLI then. If this is how Honda drags out people that want to give them money then I'm not interested anymore.
I've never been a fan of black/white cars, have always preferred color! But, this car seems to shine with just those two options. I like the black because it hides the honeycombs and blends everything in as to not have any one thing really take your eye off the flow. The white really brings out the contrast of the wheels, etc. The only problem that keeps drawing my eyes is that horrible chrome trim above the windows...it just doesn't belong and ruins the look, IMHO.And here are the remaining pics...

I can't figure out why they went with non removable headrests! Wouldn't that allow a flatter surface with the seats folded in? Or, do they not get in the way?
Love the two tone interior, gives it more character, I've never liked all black interiors, JMO. Not sure if I love how it looks with the white ext, though. Can't believe it, but think I'll be going with the black/two tone EX. I'd like leather, but hate the nav, esp if I get the AA/CP, so not worth the price for me.
Any pics of the two tone non leather? Thanks for all the pics...helps a lot! My dealer hasn't had any arrive yet and I'm one of those that will be waiting for god knows how long for sensing, waa.
Really? Well, that's actually good news...sounds possible to get the black trim ordered and installed! Every time I see the pics my eyes go right to it!The Sport comes with Black window Trim!!!
The Sport doesn't get the digital cluster. It has the same setup as the LX.So the red gauge cluster graphics vs. standard blue is only available in the sport and sport touring, I gather. This just keeps getting better and better, Honda. Feels like I'm being corraled with these trim options.
Honda is kinda known for creating packages that don't meet everyone's needs... this is why you can't expect to ever get it all in one car...So the red gauge cluster graphics vs. standard blue is only available in the sport and sport touring, I gather.
