    VTEC had no low end torque. Horrible for normal driving. VW always had more accessible punch. That is what the new SI has. Plus sport mode, great looks, great gas and only $23k in US. That is a steal!

And for those people craping on the new turbos without doing any research or ever owning one, I’ve been filling mine with premium gas and full synthetic oil for a whole year and the car has been running like new.

    Do Si fans have any idea what the car is all about? The Si was never meant to be a world beater. If you want tons of HP and torque, go get a GT Mustang and be done with it. The Si is a fun drivers car. It's not fast, but it's quick. You can throw it around curvy roads and have a blast and it'll beg for more. As for everyone saying that, whatever generation Si they're driving currently, is the best, that's antiquated thinking. I've owned an 8th and 9th generation Si and the power and torque of the 10th generation bests both of them. Multiple dyno videos have shown that Honda underrated the power numbers on the 10th generation Si. The interior of the new Si is far superior to the last two generations. It also has more technology, better infotainment. Oh and it has a little thing called adaptive damping suspension. Oh...oh...and it gets 40mpg on the highway. The only fault I see with the new Si is the garbage rear bumper on the sedan, but the coupe solves that issue. You keep your high revving VTEC and I'll take the far superior 10th generation.

    breaking 100hp/L in a turbo is not how the record works... its 100hp per effective litre, running 2bar of boost means your 1.5L has 3L effective displacement, needs to have 300HP to hit the same mark

It's a shame . I have no love for the 1.5LT as i have a 2018 CRV Touring right now and not happy with it for the obvious reasons.

    It was actually the integra that cranked more HP per liter than any other NA engine with the B18C1 at the time and that record lasted for many years. Your right about the SI being different too...I have always liked SI only come in manual and 4 door as an option is awesome. That 1.5T is not nearly the same as the other 1.5T engines with better tune, turbo etc. 205hp is awesome out of that and some Hondata can up that number. Cool bang for the buck.

    them new civic si's with a turbine and no vtec to me seems like a mistake. it's too early to say since the went with turbo in 2017 but i doubt many of them will still be around and in running condition 10-15 years from now. turbo's will give or something else will before that time, and i think this is why they went with turbo, becuase honda need to sell and making durable cars means people stay with thier cars longer and hold on thier money instead of buying a new one every 5-8 years... such a shame honda had something special, and now they're juste like everyone else... such a shame.

    @msmoniz 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    As someone who owned a 4th gen Si hatch back in the day, I wish they would offer the Si in hatch form again. It's what kept me from buying one back in 2013 since the Si only comes in coupe or sedan. Ended up with a Fit Sport instead. Yes, nowhere near as powerful, but ironically, power and handling wise it drives very much like that 4th gen Si I loved so much! And it's a HATCH!!

    K20-24 was the last good honda engine, this new turbo ideology makes the engine feel just like another ford/gm.

    • @Mk5forLife
      @Mk5forLife 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      those were too dependable,ez to work on them and reliable,not a good thing for business for honda,so they complicated stuff now,engine compartment looks crowded and these models will visit the dealer a little more often than any 2008 and below civic si.I remember when i bought my new 2000 civic si,that was a real si.

      Import Lover your not gonna make much power with NA from the factory especially with today’s emissions regulations that’s why they went with a turbo. Like seriously look at the competition who makes an NA high performance 4 cylinder in 2019? This isn’t the early 2000s anymore things move on and evolve.

    How much you wanna bet that these new engines will never match the reliability of any other N/A civic Si from previous generations.Was so ez to run 150-200k on those k20s. Tuning this new platform on a poor 1.5 engine is a NO NO,a bad idea cause they already running high boost. The civic si will never be what it used to be,remember those nice 1999-2000 model SI ?

  • @ELPJM09
    @ELPJM09 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Honda has gone down in reliability ratings and all their vehicles are just ugly. Turbos won’t last like non aspirated engines. It’s too much pressure on the engine. Just buy a Toyota.

    I love your reviews. So much passion. This Civic Si is the car old BMW drivers should drive now. Manual only. I agree, I miss the VTEC too. Love cloth interior and new volume knob. Wish they put back the tuning knob too. Only thing in design I still don’t like, are those black meshes. Great vehicle otherwise.

    Canadians are so lucky to get the LED headlights on the Si. US doesn't get them and swapping them out OEM is like 1K.

  • @GOD999MODE
    @GOD999MODE 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review man. Hope you do some other ones. As for Honda, it would've been great if they increased the engine displacement slightly. The standard 1.8L engine with an added turbo and vtec would have made this a killer Si. They could have gotten the power to 225 Hp/ 210 Lb ft.

  • @Internetgamer420
    @Internetgamer420 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I dont get why people are complaing about "No VtEcH." Isn't the turbo set up to more or less behave like it still has vtech but... better?

  • @djaric
    @djaric 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Bought mine a year early. Volume knob! Fan Controls! lol Are the heated rear seats a standard option starting in 2019? Is the infotainment more responsive vs the 2018 and older civics?
