We don't really know that for sure yet.

good, the rsx(integra) did nothing but devalue the whole acura name plate. high school brat car.
needed a design refresh anyways.

I'm putting in a good word for the Mazda3, its definately agile, handles great for FWD car. Also, I personally recommend the 2.0 liter engine over the 2.3, they almost feel the same, except for some odd reason the 2.0 gets like 10mpg better at the gas(that's actually an understatement too, I've seen higher results).

I have one myself, I drive the manual 2.0 liter, one of the best values out there imo, good combo of fuel efficiency, price, versatility/room, and some fun. No, I won't say its fast, but what do you expect for a car that I got 44mpg on a highway trip, and 29mpg(+/- 1mpg) for hardcore headache stop and go city driving. I am pleased with it.

No real gripes with it either, I've had mine for slightly over a year, no major problems at all(mechanical or electronical, etc), I can say that the a/c is just ok though, not super cold like some other cars I've had, but again, its not really serious.

Having said that, I think the new civic si is hot too, but that's from speculation, never driven one.

Goodluck, let us know what you get. Getting a new car is always fun!

ODD, can't find the 2dr HTBCK on honda.com. Are they imported from Japan?

As I understand it, they're only selling that on the European market (other then Japan). Which may or may not include such places as Australia, Canada etc.

However, I've read rumors that the US will get it next year as a 2008 model - however, I have yet to see anything that substantiates that claim

i will suggest the new Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V.

it will be based on the new chasis design coming in 07.

07 sentra

nissan hasnt released anything on how it will look but that gives you a rough idea.

most likely they are going to throw in a revamped altima engine motor. at least that is what I have heard. should have plenty of torque. the spec engine right now is rated at ~180ft/lbs

Sorry but thats fugly.

Wow, you got 9 MPG better than it's rated on HWY? Impressive. Were you using your feet too?
