These aren't drag cars......who cares what the 1/4 mile is......

6-Speed Manual (City/Highway/Combined) 22 / 31 / 25 <----------right from Honda's website


Fuel economy**, manual transmission (hwy/city): 30/22 MPG <--------------from Subaru
Also Standard on: Premium

Fuel economy**, automatic transmission (hwy/city): 34/25 MPG




So yes, the MT does get slightly better for the SI, but the AT BRZ trumps it.



Nobody wants to drive an SI over a BRZ........Let the faboys come raging



the only catch is, the brz, to start, is about 2000 over priced

lol nothing to add here except, posting in brz thread

Well done sir, well done.

so glad you compare an automatic brz to a manual si, go with an automatic civic and it trumps the brz there too. don't be mad you bought a car that doesn't outperform a civic.. it is ok friend

also you pointed out that the civic makes a whopping 5 more whp and weights 100 pounds more, but guess what? the civic runs a whole second faster so which is the better performing car? You bought a performance car why? if you didn't buy it for performance what then?

AT SI currently do not exist in the current model year.

I didn't buy my car for the performance. I didn't buy it to race, to track, to drag, or to be an idiot. I bought it because I wanted a small, light weight car, and I love the way it looks. Performance comes second to those three standards.

The civic SI is NOT a better performing car and the is NO level of convincing you could do to convince me so......I do NOT care if it comes out 1 second faster on the drag. You would be ignorant to think that the SI is a better performing car.

/e
And just a moment of research...... the SI ranges from 14.3-14.9 quarter mile while the BRZ runs average 14.9......I wouldn't say it's a full second faster.....

oh and look at this....from motortrend

Engine/Horsepower/Torque Fuel Economy Weight 0-60 MPH Quarter Mile 60-0 MPH Figure Eight

2012 Honda Civic Si Coupe 2.4L I-4/201-HP/170 lb-ft 22/31 mpg 2835 lb 6.5 sec 15.0 sec @ 92.3 mph 121 ft 26.4 sec @0.66 g (avg)

Oh god it barely traps in the 90's.


Quick go race a V6 minivan and post vids.


Also a civic SI makes 20lb/ft more torque. For shame. For shame.

Why are we arguing performance of 2 slow cars?

They run the 1/4 1 second faster than my stock 2500$ Miata, AND my stock 2001 Lincoln towncar. Who cares?

Exactly....

Now they will look a little prettier


...from the rear view mirror of most other "performance" cars.
