I really want to like this car but the rev hang is so bad on the SI. Also having essentially a similar engine to the regular Civic is a downer. Add to that the vacuum sound track and it's hard to like it. Styling is also not my favorite either. Rev hang ruined this car when I went to go buy it. Shame. I'm sure some Honda fanboy will say " bro just get a time and the rev hang goes away" which I would counter with you good your new car warranty, which is the whole reason for buying a new car.
Rev hang is the side effect when you try to make a small displacement engine drive smoothly off the line, when it has no torque from the turbo yet. They go with a heavy flywheel or dual mass clutch and when the car is a “sports car”, it ruins it.
Honda Canada gave it to me as a 2020. The wheels are winter package so they are different, it had LED headlights, Aegean blue colour, and all other 2020 listed updates. Could it be that US and Canadian cars are a bit different?
You are right, I just noticed the vents are the old ones. This is what happens when manufacturers give you the wrong car and you don’t have enough time to double check. I am updating the title. Thanks!
Blue is gorgeous - the black rims are way better. Great video
Thanks!!

Thumbs down because your not even reviewing a 2020 Si.
Explain please?
The 2020 Si has updated front bumber vents, black wheels, red accented seats etc.. yours is definety a 2019

This isn’t a 2020 Civic Si...
You are right, the bumper vents are not updated, I am updating the title
