None. The vehicle isn't out yet.

Agreed 100% people judge way to quick. My only complaint is lack if information.

1) People on this forum are super salty and can't stop QQ'ing about it

2) The type R is out so now people don't know which model to be fanboys of. Which one to like and which one to trash

3) People have some weird romanticized view of the old SI's. The last few starting with the EK were a luxuried up high hp weak suspension afterthought of a car for american customers since they didn't think the US would buy the real type R and all americans care about is HP.

I have one simple complaint: The outside door window trim is not black.

 

[joe007]

1. Too heavy.

2. Too much useless exterior plastic.

3. Too many useless (or even worse than useless - harmful) features (eg. adaptive suspension, hill hold assist).

 

[bikejog]

1. Performance too close to other non-SI models.
2. No LED headlights.
3. No integrated side mirror turn signals.
4. No hatch.

Riiight... so whether or not it's coming in a hatchback is a judgement?

Ya more info would be nice... but the important info will come when driving one. It'll have to drive pretty terribly to change my mind on buying one... and it's a safe bet it won't. With the info available, admittedly some unconfirmed, we know body styles, colors, horsepower/torque, interior/exterior design, and a few key features.... other than how it drives, not sure what we're missing that matters.

Fewer comments on how much the Si sucks would be nice too, that's not the point here. Point is to hear what people wish Honda would've done differently. No LED headlights in the US but bringing them to Canada is a reasonable and objective complaint.
