  • Hello and welcome to this week's video. I'm looking at the 2023 Honda Civic Si 6-speed manual! Few cars are this much fun to drive on the daily. The Civic Si has always occupied a special place in my heart and this newest version continues a long line of incredible cars.

    Great video! Got my 23 Civic Si in January. Ten thousand miles later, and I'm still loving it as much as the day I got it. Look forward to driving it every day.

    The first new car I ever bought and the 11th Gen Si is simply a blast to own and pull up on cars unsuspecting what a civic can do to them.
    I hope to own this for several 10 of thousand of minds

      Bro I have gotten smoked by literally everything in my 2023 Civic SI. It’s not a bust them off the line type of car that’s for sure. Fun to drive alone without passengers? Yes. But drag racing. Forget it.

    • @1anre
      @1anre 6 місяців тому

      @juelz4516 no one buys the Si for drag performance.
      You're in the wrong league.
      Get a Type R if you're that buoyant.
      Even with passengers on the Si, you always get compliments on how well the car drives

      ​@@juelz4516you really shouldn't be racing on the street. That's a really irresponsible and childish thing to do. Who cares if other cars can "smoke" yours. God, I feel like I lost 10 IQ points just saying "smoke" in this context.

      I can't understand why they tinker with trims like that. I'm pretty sure Americans like useful convenience items as much as Canadians. Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.

    • @Aki_Lesbrinco
      @Aki_Lesbrinco 4 місяці тому

      I think Honda feels Americans are more sensitive to differences in included content and they removed those things to make a case for the Integra. Which is a very mediocre way of product development. Instead of removing stuff from the SI, they should've spent a bit more on the Integra's development and added more to make it worthwhile over the SI. Maybe adding a more unique interior or better yet, a detuned version of the 2.0t of the Acura TLX with something like 230hp.

    • @lugnutscarreviews
      @lugnutscarreviews  9 місяців тому +3

      Learning is pretty straight forward. A couple hours behind the wheel and you'll be fine. Manual is a great way to drive. The Si also has transmission hold so it doesn't roll back on a hill as you get started which is the scariest thing about leaning how to drive manual. Great car.

      It's one of those issues that has probably happened to a small percentage of cars and people on the internet keep repeating as if it happened to them and as if it's happening to all Civics with the 1.5t. I saw a comprehensive video a mechanic did a while back. He explained that the issue only happened in very specific conditions and it seemed to happen on earlier cars of the previous generation. Like always people spread what they read and blow it completely out of proportion. My brother has a 2019 civic touring with the 1.5t. He read the same thing and has kept an eye on it. He has never had any issues. No gas smell coming from the engine, oil levels always at expected level. I bought an Integra manual almost six months ago and haven't had any issues either.

    • @lugnutscarreviews
      @lugnutscarreviews  8 місяців тому

      I think it's a big improvement over a standard civic. Here in Canada the GTI is more money and of course is only a hatchback. If a hb is your jam its a great choice but if you want a sporty sedan the Civic is one of your only choices. While Honda (sady) isn't what it used to be regarding quality I think they have VW beat. All that being said... I do like me a hot hatch! Lol
