Good share! But this is actually a model of the sedan. You can tell by how long the back is compared to the coupe. Also the C pillar remains raised as it hits the trunk (the coupe also barely has a trunk). Lastly, the tail lights do not connect on this model as they do on the coupe.

You can tell the differences in the patent images of the sedan vs coupe.

Damn I was so excited!
Cool look inside the development center tho and the sedan's styling model.

Ahh I see I think. I just zoomed in and I didn't see any break for the rear door and assumed it was a coupe! I hadn't noticed the rear window of the sedan - it terminates in the same shape as the coupe. Neat!!

Thought I was about to have my weekend made with leaked coupe pics hah

Anyone have an idea what they do in this room? The black area in front looks like it could be a screen?

HondaProJason said this is a wind tunnel where they do testing at 160 mph!

Very cool. So behind that black gate must be a massive fan and this would be behind the car.

Did Honda publish drag coefficient #'s for the sedan ?

I haven't seen any other than the claim that it is 12% more aerodynamic. Hopefully they reveal that eventually. With such a drastic redesign I would have thought they'd be bragging about these numbers.

Benjaminh posted a great rundown of the 2016 Civic's aerodynamics - http://www.civicx.com/threads/top-20-or-so-firsts-for-the-epic-2016-civic.492/page-3#post-5229
