So we expect the coupe will have the exact same breakdown of features between the models?

Most likely, that's how it's always been with the exception of the coupe usually had larger wheels on base models than the sedan and a larger sound system (6 versus 4 speakers). But that's the current civic.

I've speculated that because the coupe is lower volume and more sport oriented it might have a condensed trim lineup. Possibly having all 1.5T models with an LXS/LXT as a base instead of the 2.0L LX base, but i'm not sure. Usually it has mirrored the sedan lineup pretty closely, but anything could be on the table for this new model.

I would prefer if the 2.0L LX remain the base coupe to keep costs down. Otherwise will be a dilemma between going with a cheaper LX sedan or a more expensive LXS "base" coupe. The more trims to choose from the better IMO.

Oh i agree... and i'd say im 90% sure the coupe will mirror the sedan on trim levels... but that other 10% of me thinks how much money they could save on production costs if they condensed the coupe to turbo only models. Look at the Accord coupe, it starts at an LXS base which is more comparable to the sedan sport trim than the base LX sedan.

my question is how much extra is the honda sensing package on the EX-T because if it is 1500ish then the touring is almost worth it no?

The think the EXT with sensing bumps you up just over EXL pricing... and the EXL doesn't have Sensing as an option because that puts you into Touring pricing and they figure if you're going to get an EXL with Sensing you might as well get a touring.

Which is EXACTLY what Honda wants you to do. Drop more of your money on the Top trim level where there are higher margins. You get a few features and realize moving up has more value. Tack on Honda Sensing and realize that the Touring is now in reach and you've gone for that.

The EX-L has sensing OR Navi available, not both, but you can get one or the other. If you want both, that basically just means get a touring.

I could take or leave the leather, but I want sensing, leds, premium audio, the wheels and the chrome door handles, so touring it is.
