Vey nice and the rally shifter is a hell of alot better and comfortable than you would think. The 2.0 liter
is exactly what the car needed, no need to downshift on uphills. I only had it for an hour at lunch, but it was
turning heads like my yellow/black flamed s2k. I will be driving the car to Lime Rock in CT on wed 3-27-2. I'll keep you posted about the hour drive out there and how it handles a nice hour long drive through the
rolling hills of eastern New York in to the CT area. Overall I like where honda is going with the new cars coming out(PILOT??????????????)

finally I can put dubz on a HONDA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1

 

I forgot to add the hottest thing about the car, The front seats.
The worst thing is they forgot to match the rear seats to the fronts!

 

When you say 'Lime Rock,' are you referring to the track?

 

Yes the track in conneticut.

 

Actually, I was wondering if you were going to get any track time in the car. If so, I live about 30 min from the track and would be interested in seeing the new si on the road course (if that were possible). I used to have a 94 Si, and I'd personally find it interesting to see the revisited hatch version in action.

 

No dice my man, the car is a demo and has about 25 miles on the speedo. I'm grabbing a helmet and jumping in my buddy's car! It will sit in the pit and be a nice little attraction for Honda enthusiasts.

rally drivers love those kind of shifters

 

It looks kind of awkward to me...... but I have never tried one..... maybe I should go over to the Honda dealer opposite my office and arrange a tes drive in a Civic Type-R

 

James you are the man. Any guy with the option to push that car at lunch time is just that. Any possible photo's?
