Our first album short, in 2006 Honda Civic Si has left us with a very positive impression, and last week the car at the headquarters of CNET did nothing to change that. Praise for the rev-happy engine and slick transmission was universal, and everyone who drove the Si came out smiling.
The previous generation Honda Civic Si was a great disappointment to the faithful himself, without running and agility that had defined the earlier versions. This eighth iteration is heavier and bigger than the car it replaces, but it is significantly faster, making it more comfortable and inspiring at the wheel.
Also satisfy the longtime fans is the return to a schema true two-door coupe with a decidedly aggressive style, the more separate the new hatchback car loved it replaces. trunk volume is slightly below rated capacity of the hatchback, but the rear seats for 2006 Honda Civic Si and trunk both offer usable space, given the overall dimensions of the car.
Interior features are well designed technology with satellite navigation to differentiate the two trim levels available. Our test car was not equipped with the navigation system voice recognition, which also includes a PCMCIA card reader and an in-dash XM radio tuner, but the auxiliary audio input and MP3/WMA playback capability are pretty standard features. We tested the navigation system in our previous analysis of 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid and concluded that it is one of the first, the option is worth.
At a list price of $ 20,540, including a $ 550 destination and handling charge, the 2006 Honda Civic Si offers an overall performance of any of its direct competitors and are better able to complete the value equation with good build quality, up- to-date technology resources, and fuel economy that will save dollars over the property.
