That's the first thing I was thinking. It looks like a ion Saturn car.

Sounds like the Civic SI will be a replacement for the Prelude -- 6 spd and
200 hp. But, I would guess that the ADM will put the price at around 24k.

They have ruined what was a very decent looking compact sedan. Actually, a
Saturn Ion looks BETTER than the 2006 Civic sedan. And the Chevy Cobalt
sedan looks better than either one of them. I'd be suspect of the Cobalt's
downstream reliability though.

Oh yeah. It's STILL a GM product. Not as bad as Ford, but close.

My #2 son bought a Cobalt a few months ago (not his first choice, but he
could get a better price on a Chevy than on anything else and money was
tight) so we shall see. At 5K miles there are a few things to fix under
warranty, including a clunk in the steering. Hmm.

It is probably a minor lubrication issue. Stick with the car and you
will enjoy it. Civics have their share of problems: anemic engine
performance, outdated styling, overstated gas mileage unless you drive
like grandpa and astronomical insurance in many places.

A year has made a lot of changes. GM tops industry reliability now.
Best built cars include Buick, Malibu, Cadillac. I am not sure if
Honda models made the top 10.

Once again, try reading. While your at it, look up the word
"research"...oh, that is if you know how to use a dictionary...

They can't do better than that ?! The Civic is in major need of a good
overhaul of design. It does not need a look Saturn and Acura came up
with some years ago. By the way, are they addressing the underpowered
85-140 hp engine selections?

Acura is Honda by the way.
Is a 200HP 1.8 Litre, non turbo 4 cylinder good enough for you?
And I'm not sure what your smoking but the base civic currently has 115HP,
not 85, and next year the base will have 140HP

Civic is not an Acura ($30K+++). The base does come in at only 115 hp,
which is still far below the competition typically at 150-200 hp.

Funny, my 98 civic with 106 BHp with 140000 miles on it smokes the sh.t out
of the 'powerful' 2.2 and 2.4 liter cavaliers. And the neons don't even
bother trying, they know they suck.
Have you even driven a Honda? If so, do you know how to drive? Its called a
4 cylinder, try reving it up sometime. my civic redlines at 7100 rpms. what
does a cavalier do, like 4800?
And yes, Acura is a higher end branded honda. Maybe try reading a book
sometime.
