  1. 2016 Honda Civic Coupe Release Coming March 15th @ $19,050

    This rollout and lack of information has been, and still is, insane. Massively slow and info not given to anyone including dealers. I was waiting on an Si and was so ready to purchase one, for months and months I have waited. I still know nothing besides it apparently does not exist and will...
  2. Official: Civic Hatchback Prototype Unveiled!

    Fail. Even in the sported up concept look I do not like it at all, not even a little bit. I like hatches but I do not like this one. Not getting the best of responses across the internet either so I'm not alone in disliking it at least. Hate to be negative on here, but I have to be honest...
  3. Some 2017 Civic Si details we learned

    Good to know, I am not leasing a Honda for my personal car now so it may or may not help me. Have to see if my lease will have similar options though so thanks!
  4. how eager to know are you?

    I'm not jumping to a GTI no matter what at least. That said I'm not excited any more as the longer we go with no news the more more it seems it is not coming out this year at all. I am actively out test driving other vehicles and looking outside of Honda now as I need to purchase a car in 6.5...
  5. First time buying new car leasing payments?

    I have purchased and leased cars. My last three have been leased, and I have been happy with the process so far. On my CR-V when I was about 7 months from turn in the HR-V came out and we were interested in it after looking at one. They gave me $2000 to turn in my lease early and then put...
  6. Honda Civic Hatchback prototype to debut at Geneva!

    Well that is disappointing. This is a lift back, not a hatchback. You can see looking at this that this is just like the camoed Tybe R design with the sloping rear end. The protrusions on the roof hinges can be seen in the camoed spy pics out there so we already know exactly what this will look...
  7. Don't hit the engine button while driving.

    I'm not even old and I have driven many cars with no power steering and no power brakes. To some it may seem as if they have stopped working but they have not, just requires more effort than many people are aware of.
  8. Rumors swirl.... 2016 Civic Si 2.0T with about 230hp.

    I own a Fiat 500 Abarth and drive it every day, that exhaust is amazing. Gurgle, pops, turbo whine, backfires, you name it and it has it. The secret? There is no muffler at all on the Abarth from the factory. None. That exhaust is seriously a sweet sound, the Si when I have driven them was...
  9. Some 2017 Civic Si details we learned

    Well crap, that blows my purchase of a Civic out of the water then. I have an existing vehicle lease that is up in August, and I was planning on getting an Si. No Si means no Civic for me - Now I have to go look around for another vehicle altogether. Fail Honda, major fail. Not a happy...
  10. 2016 Civic engine recall - piston pin snap ring issue affecting some VINs

    I agree, I am just saying it's disappointing from a standpoint that anyone that has purchased a new car hate for it to have an issue especially right away. I think Honda is doing just fine, though I would sure hate to be employed at Honda listening to the "proactive" people demanding fixes this...
  11. 2016 Civic engine recall - piston pin snap ring issue affecting some VINs

    Good lord lol, potentially unsafe, calling corporate, demanding someone bore scope your car right away. Take a breath, the car is fine to drive. No need to be overreacting like this, Honda is taking care of it and you will survive lol. Yes it is disappointing but no need to go overboard here.
  12. 2016 Civic engine recall - piston pin snap ring issue affecting some VINs

    You may be looking at the antenna for the radio as that is in the back glass on the Civic. Looks like defroster lines but it is not, and because of the closeness of the antenna to the defroster some have static in the radio when the defroster is on.
  13. Paint Sealant

    No I did not, I used a coating over a sealant this time around as they last longer usually so I wanted to try them out. Now that I have I will always use them from now on, I have been very pleased with the longevity of the coatings. I get all my stuff usually from one of two places, Autogeek or...
  14. Paint Sealant

    I have WOP on my HR-V, yes I know it is not the same car but I have been very surprised at how good the car can look when clean. I do my own paint care, but I do the sealants and coatings and not just normal wax and usually get pretty good results. I really like how the lines on the car pop...
  15. Electronic Parking Break & Brake Hold -- maintenance issues later on?

    Meanwhile I have never used the parking brake, ever. Over years and years of driving I have never had a single transmission issue of any kind. If I lived/parked on a monster hill I guess I'd use it, otherwise no way. Normal automatics and now my CVTs and no parking brake usage, and I also...
  16. how eager to know are you?

    I guess I'm at a 6. I was super excited but the lack of info and the possible long time frame is causing me to look at other vehicles. I have several months until I need to get a new car but I like to look and think over my decisions very thoroughly and I'm having to do that with other cars...
  17. Guys i need some HELP Black VS Steel EXL

    I have owned 5 black vehicles in my life and I could not love how it looks on a car and more than I already do. I love to maintain cars and have a wall of waxes, sealants, a whole hamper of rags, special sponges and mitts to wash with. All that said I'll never own another black car again...
  18. How much did everyone put in for down payment?

    Yeah, I'm very nice about it and let them know I have other things coming and I'm trying to avoid pulls. I don't know what I have coming, but I do know I have other things coming lol! They understand and so far have been very accommodating to me. I too like to email for offers as my local...
  19. Civic posts December 2015 sales gain of 29.4%

    I do not drive the car daily as it is my wife's but even for me I never notice it anymore so yes, what looks goofy at first fades away after a little bit. Wes, WOT is loud but in driving day to day and even with my freeway merging and the like the car never actually needs WOT, I never see the...
  20. Civic posts December 2015 sales gain of 29.4%

    I totally agree, but I did go ahead and purchase an HRV. I'm a moderator over on the HRV forum and many people were interested and the flat out gave up due to there being none to get. Honda has missed a ton of sales and they totally miscalculated the demand it would have. The 1.5 turbo would...
