  • Honda has sold millions and millions of Civics for good reason. They're fantastic compacts, in any form, coupe, sedan, or otherwise. This latest Honda Civic Si Coupe is a great little performance minded two door compact due to its super chassis and drivetrain. What's the rest of the Honda Civic Si like? Let's find out.

    The civic Si gets so much unwarranted hate. Enthusiasts should be completely enamored with a sporty car (albeit underpowered in its class) that is consistently reliable and fun. Put a turbo in this, which I believe they are doing, and you'll have less reliability. I'll take it as is. Great review!

    I have a 2015 Si Sedan, and I'm really happy it. I like the two-tier gauge cluster well enough, but I'm honestly not totally in love with the shifter. I like it quite a lot, but sometimes the throws feel a bit long and the spacing seems odd.
    Otherwise the engine is fantastic and it handles incredibly well. It's hard to find the car's limits on public roads. At $23k, it's an excellent buy. It's great for bolting around town, and it's always ready and willing to be unleashed at a moment's notice.
    P.S. Great video. It looks great, and unlike some other reviewers, it sounds great too.

    Brian thanks for the reply and well you got me on that question cause i am pretty sure is not going to be the gallon we get from the grocery store (milk) but i actually looked it up and it would be the US Gallon which is defined as 231 cubic inches (3.785 l). I do appreciated cause now i know the UK uses a different metric which is call (imperial gallon) true story. 😀

      ok.... thanks.....I live in america we use gallons and american measurements of mostly everything . like disatance lol its miles and fluid is quarts and gallons. mpg is what i used my whole life and 27 miles a gallon isnt really that good were u running it hard or just driving it easy cause i thought it would at least get 30 mpg i have cars that are 25 year old 4 cylinders that get that mpg and i dont baby them everywhere could get 30 plus if i did
