Re: 2013 Honda Civic
its essentially the same car, didn't seem to hurt sales either. I sat in one and it wasn't that bad. It's also amazing that the civic went for almost 6 yearspotownrob wrote:yeah, all the pleibs who settled for a '12 civic must love seeing that. on a somewhat related notes, how come every other car on the road around here is a 2006-2011 civic??bk7794 wrote:Yeah they shouldn't have announced it so soon.

Re: 2013 Honda Civic
I like the front end of the new European Civic. The previous one looked too much like a spaceship:
On the other hand, I really liked the fresh modern looks. For a while, cars had looked too much like each other. The new Civic was... different. Now all hatchbacks, like my friend's new Volvo V40, try to imitate that fresh and youthful look with sharp edges etc.

Re: 2013 Honda Civic
I just wish Honda would get back into the sportier cars again. Like the Prelude, S2000, civic SI and the acura counterparts. Atleast they brought back the integra (ILX).Tups wrote:I like the front end of the new European Civic. The previous one looked too much like a spaceship:

I agree, though the new one didn't really look that far apart from the old one though.
This kind of looks like an elongated Fit.
And to that article about honda admitting it messed up the 12 with the announcement of the 13, I don't buy that. A lot of people that worked at the dealer claimed "they didn't know that the new 2013 civic was being re-designed until it landed off the truck." I was like they announced it in the newspaper.
