  1. Civic Si Vs Fiesta ST

    Over the months that I was test driving this spring/summer, I drove '19 FiSTs, SIs, Sport Hatches, a Veloster R Spec, a GTI, and a GLI, I really thought the SIs were best for pure driving dynamics. Sharper and edgier than the VWs, though not as much horsepower. I thought the R Spec and FiST...
  2. Greddy Exhaust or Borla?

    I did check previous threads on mods and warranty, but I'm newb confused: Will a new Borla or Greddy exhaust void the engine warranty?
  3. Shifting experience between Si and Civic Sport Hatch

    I drove a couple of Sport Hatches and a few SIs before settling on the Sport Hatch -- I felt the throws were the same, but the SI felt like the shifter had a little more weight and less play. The SI is a sharper driving experience, but in the end I preferred saving the 3 grand and having the...
  4. 2019 Jetta GLI vs 2019 Civic Si

    After driving both over the summer and talking to a lot of mechanics, I decided to pass on the VW -- great car to lease, but maybe not to own. Dealership-only service, expensive parts.

    State: SC Year: 2019 Trim: Sport Color: Black Pearl Trans: 6MT No options Total OTD 21,500
  6. Anyone else feel like their car’s shifting quality is super unpredictable?

    In my sport hatch, upshifts are smooth, downshifts are clunky -- I'm finding that heel-toe 4-2 or 3-2 are easy, but 5-4 or 5-3 often needs a prudent double-clutch.
  7. [C&D] Mazda 3 vs. Honda Civic vs. Toyota Corolla vs. Volkswagen Golf vs. Hyundai Elantra GT

    Agree with C&D -- drove both the Sport Hatch and the GT N Line (and the SI) a few times and decided on the Sport Hatch. The Hyundai had a nicer interior, but the car was all 201HP and Pilot Sports. I thought the chassis tune, steering rack, and shifts were better in the Honda. Both good cars...
  8. 1 thing you hate about your 10th gen civic?

    The shift throws and feel on the Sport Hatch are blah. Might go with an Acuity kit.
  9. New Here? Introduce Yourself!

    Glad to be here -- I picked up a 2019 Civic Sport Hatch this last weekend, black pearl. Loving the pedal placement, the ease of rev matching, the chassis tune and the cavernous boot. When I have a chance I'll post a pic.
