@@_mico_angelo I’ll answer in place of guido since he hasn’t replied…I recently bought an Si in April (red) and paid $31k - at Dover Honda in Dover, NH. I had a choice of getting the red in April or waiting to the end of June for one in orange. Both were offered at the same price.

I just got an orange Si manual, it's my first time driving manual transmission car. I had a question? I don't see the fog light control or it doesn't have fog light?
The new integra will be heavier and more costly. Love that it’s a hatchback, but not crazy about the exterior design. When it comes down to it, you’ll likely spend 3-5k more for heated seats and wheel with leather seats. Not worth it to me.
@@93455Driver I drove the veloster n and didn’t like it. Didn’t drive the Elantra n but can’t live w the exterior styling. It’s a bargain for those that like the way that thing looks but I’m not one of those guys
@@stms4411 Agree, the Elantra N weird lines are not great, but from reports it sounds like it is fun drive. I did not like the Veloster N, not a fan of the door set up.
Great and informed discussion between your two. I LOVE to see that on my channel. Appreciate you both. My two cents, the Civic Si is an excellent little car to drive and provides good go-fast kit in the right places. But the Integra name holds a very special place in my heart, owned an 1989 five-door and loved it, so I really want to like the new one. Hopefully I'll get the chance to drive one soon, dig in to the details. And see how it stacks up to the Si.
ill keep my 10th gen Si....I have adaptive dampers, full digital center gauge cluster, shift lights, heated seats, more HP, a temp gauge, dual zone climate, and fog lights . You know all standard stuff that they took AWAY from the 11th gen. And i got mine for 22K OTD.... imagine paying 37K OTD for an 11th gen where they took away all those features I just mention lmao.All they did was take everything from the 10th gen accord (The gauge cluster, the turbo, the engine) and throw it in the 11th gen and called it a day.
Styling is way different - if you like yours better, that’s great. I prefer the understated look off the 11th gen. Yours stickered for 25k, so I’m wondering how you paid taxes and fees and still came in 3 grand under list. Seems improbable. The 5 hp more you have at peak comes at the cost of less useable power throughout the rev range……virtually all the journalists have pointed this out. Adaptive dampers are nice to have at best, gimmicks in many cases. Something more to break. They made the chassis stiffer, reworked the motor and steering. Made it better than the car it replaced. There’s nothing wrong with liking what you have, but your summary overlooks some important facts.
@@brokentradgedy cars are depreciating assets. Not sure why I need to point this out. Enjoy your car…..sounds like you did well on it. One day you may learn that you don’t need to shit on other people to make yourself feel better.
I've got one on order, and I'll take any color available, but I sure hope it's this orange! I do get a kick out of the reactions of pretty much all of the reviewers who are testing this car. It looks as though it's impossible to not laugh out loud when driving the new SI. Maybe it should be called the Honda Civic LOL instead of SI. (lol)
I own a red Si. Just picked it up last week. Such an amazing car for a first time manual driver like myself.
How much over MSRP did you pay if any?

Same! Got it 5 days ago in sonic gray pearl and its my first car ever actually and i love it! Learned manual in about 3 to 4 days 🤩
Congrats Brett,how are you coping with daily driving, stalling at traffic stops yet?
How about the clutch, is it light to engage ?
Simply the most fun car around!
For price, absolutely. Money no object...th-cam.com/video/lKDqTVYQQas/w-d-xo.html
Just got the platinum white pearl, had them add the heated seats. Such a nice ride, very happy with it.
how much did the heated seats cost?
@@SIIKAP1 close to $600, same seats but added the heat elements and switches .
@@steveh8224 thanks. Not too bad
@@SIIKAP1 np👍
How were you able to add the heated elements and switch? Was this OEM through a Honda dealer, or aftermarket?
I like that you take the time to describe all the details of the vehicle, nice video!
Thank you for taking the time to comment. I appreciate it!
I just got an orange Si manual, it's my first time driving manual transmission car.
I had a question?
I don't see the fog light control or it doesn't have fog light?
It has day time running lights, but no fog lights.
How has it been with daily driving it compared to your previous auto, are you exhausted after dailying it?
I think a down pipe and tune would make this crazy fun.
:/ shame that the US did not get the Canadian Si spec car......but the new Integra will fix that!

@@stms4411 Maybe an adjustable suspension as well? Tbh, the Elantra N maybe the bargain.
