2006 Honda Civic ...eeeeugh

[HeilSvenska]

The Honda Civic is the cornerstone of Honda and its automotive heritage, earning recognition and acclaim as an icon in the automotive industry since its introduction in 1973. The Civic represents the first high volume production automobile that showcased Honda's spirit of innovation to a North American audience ready for something new. Cumulatively, Civic has reached 16 million customers globally and 7 million in the United States, where it has been the best selling retail compact car for the past nine years. The Civic was the seventh best selling vehicle overall in 2004 and third best selling passenger car. If the Civic were its own individual brand, annual sales in excess of 300,000 would make it the 13th top selling brand in the United States out of more than 40 possible brands.

As the Civic has been re-invented throughout its previous seven generations, each new model has consistently set new standards in the automotive industry with its innovative packaging, attractive styling, high fuel economy, low emissions, fun-to-drive performance, reliability and safety. The pioneering eighth generation 2006 model amplifies the defining character of the Civic with a long list of Honda technology and engineering innovations, resulting in a vehicle that is pure Honda, exclusively Civic and outside the boundaries of traditional small car thinking.

The 2006 Civic represents an extreme transformation of design and dynamics. Multiple powertrains for 2006 range from 197-horsepower high performance to 50 mpg gas-sipping hybrid to an all-around performer with two body styles, representing one of the most diverse vehicles in the industry. An expressive and futuristic design with exciting performance and a dedication to providing advanced safety technology set the Civic apart from the competition.

i actually like it! it looks WAAAAY better than the last one, especially the coupe. the sedans rear is ugly, i'll give you that, but the coupe looks pretty cool.

[nchs09]

looks too much like.... audi from the back imo :(


but tahts a good thing. imo

[sads]

I don't mind the look of the new Civic at first glance I thought they tryed to make it too "futreristic"but it seems to be getting better the more I see it the Type R will be the one to look out for though

[Ian_yamaue]

I liked that car. For me the coupe looks very, very good... but dark blue is not it's color, for sure...

[kksh]

I like it. I think it's way better than the last model and a welcomed departure from the old boring ones. Bring it on!

[dangerously_cool]

There's far too much Prius in that dash.

Shock and horror! the European Civic!!!

What's up with Honda as it puts gigantic tailights on Civics?!?

[gobs3z]

It would have fit perfectly in the early 90's as a concept car, but it would have ended there. ewww

[ae86_16v]

The Coupe looks good. I am glad they decided against the front and rear lights going across the entire car like the concept.

The Sedan, ewww. . . what's up with the A4 taillights? Why do they HAVE to copy Audi. And it is not like Audi's lights are great either.

[tuffguy]

Dunno, something looks odd from the side... the front slopes down too quickly and looks short and blunt, the doors are too high, and the C-pillar/trunk looks ugly...

we already saw that one. and that looked interesting enough to make people ignore the fact that it's ugly. i quite like the EU hatchback. but the US sedan and the EU saloon versions...which are same...are horrible to look at.

[taygunho]

interior design of this car is ok but extorier design is ugly. it is ugliest honda ever IMO. rear vieww of 4 door version is better than 5 door version. but design of two version is :puke:

[ferrarif1fan89]

it is ugliest honda ever IMO.

lucky for you you dont get the honda ridgeline or pilot in your market.

[komotar]

I like the car.

Honda has guts and it shows.

Can't wait to drive it.

[taygunho]

it is ugliest honda ever IMO.

do you have pics of those cars?

[chest3r]

Is this the final version ?!?!?

The car is really really ugly !!!! :x :x And the interior too....

At least I hope the TypeR version would be a good sports car 8)

[gucom]

hmm i htink its pretty nasty looking...but i thought the same of the renault Megane and those other "modern" style renaults when they were released about 3 years ago...now i love 'em :D so who knows maybe i'll start liking htis new civic too. The hatchback reminds me of a toyota prius in overall shape and rear part design..

[Schwalbe]

Already that I don't like Honda crap. Here another reason to hate it. :x

Shame on you, Honda! :fist:

That's a very cheap move. :wanker:

[AlienDB7]

Eww... the back is ugly. Looks like Honda is destined to take over Renault in creating the morst ridiculous looking cars around.

On the positive side, it'll be harder for the ricers to make it any uglier :lol:

[ae86_16v]

And there's the Coupe too... :?

I like the US coupe version. . . I definitely don't like the Euro version of this car, especially the headlights and taillights.

[AlienDB7]

With the spoiler on, the US coupe reminds me of the Saturn Ion Redline.

[adamrotor]

i msut say the soupe version does not look bad at all but look at those frooty rims they just really kill it

[blinkmeat]

Sort of looks like a forced turd to me :?
