Been driving this for a couple months and I think it’s a very under appreciated car. It’s no track demon it’s a FUN daily driver with room to tune. I get great fuel economy, a drivers seat I ENJOY being in, easy clutch and transmission that doesn’t make you want to die in traffic. A lsd from factory, a more rigid body, great suspension set up, you can’t beat the value. It’s very light for its size which yes does mean you give up the luxurious touch of heavy interiors but it isn’t trying to be a Mercedes. It’s surprisingly quick stock with $2k you can really blow yourself (and others ;) away
Yea have fun at ur local stealership getting your car fixed every other month, no thanks but I’ll take Japanese over German . Unless I’m filthy rich then I’ll buy AMG GT
This dude rambles on and on and on. Whenever you think he's actually gonna start driving the car, he just starts talking about himself again. Couldn't finish the video he was so annoying.
VQ3713 agreed. However if youre gonna spend 7 1/2 minutes out of 11 1/2 minutes yapping before u start driving, you've better be funny or entertaining. Neither of which this guy is.
AndrewIRL I agree. I would never buy a car that has dealership branding. I refuse to advertise their company for free, especially after already paying them dealer fees.
Dea Garic blow dryer and some fishing line or your finger tip. It comes off easy. I've taken dealer badges off of every car I've owned. Takes like 15-20 mins
@@jtorres1486 Yes, but I would prefer doing it myself so that I make sure I don't scratch my brand new car. I bought a brand new car back in 2003 and the dealer did the same thing. They put their badge on it and it really pissed me off. They traded the car with another dealership and the same day put their badge on. They only had the car a few hours. I told them I wanted it removed so they did, but scratched the paint in the process. Fuck that!
Hey! Thank you for this fun to watch review! I recently purchased a civic coupe 2019 SI and have been watching everything can about this car. Stumbled on you and while it's for 2017, I still got some great info. Thank you! And i love your candor and enthusiasm! Oh, and PS: i traded in a GTI 2016 for my Honda Civic coupe...yes, i have less HP (2-5 vs 220?) however, repairs will be next to nothing with a Honda. Hence my decision. Honda's are the best and only car to own. IMP.
Thank for the review. It was great. I own a 2009 Si and I'm in the market for a new Si but wasn't sure if it's worth it. Knowing that you are a GTI fan and are use to the higher horse power, listening to you say that it's worth it to buy makes me want to definitely get one. Well at least take one for a test drive. Keep it up! Just subscribed
+Juan Cristales thank you! The 09 body style was the last body style I really liked until this one and it really is a ton of fun to drive! Thank you for subscribing, I'll keep posting fresh content every week :)
No it's not fast stock...my 8th gen felt faster....but I got a Ktuner with a stage 1 tune which puts out 235 whp and 285 tq on a completely stock engine and now it feels amazing!! Will eat wrx's like nothing now
I have 21,000 miles on the exact car model you reviewed and love it! The torque is there, but the best thing about it performance-wise is the handling - which is the best of any SI thanks to the limited slip and adjustable dampers and steering response. Not to mention great brakes and killer seats. For an all round daily driver under $30K, let alone under $25K loaded, no real comp. I test drove both tg he Focus RS and Subaru WRX and horsepower and awd lost out to the way the SI felt. Natural, whether being pushed or cruising. The shifter on the SI is better than the WRX. The seats and visibility better than the RS. The reliability way better. Mileage, space, insurance, as ll better. Price? A decently equipped WRX is $32 K. RS az bout $42K. I barely get a chance to let the SI stretch its legs, what the heck do I need another 60 or 145 hp for ? But great handling I can enjoy all the time.
I agree with you I have a 2019 only had it for months and already have 6,000 miles I love my SI sedan I put ktuner on it it seemed to help out the power but I don't even turn to boost up that high (just a reflash) it's just a nice feeling car all the way around.. Type R is way to boy racer looking for me & Overkill with power. Si is right up my alley
@@dominicancheif117 i have an '18 si coupe and i havent noticed any major issues with oil dilution. Just remember to change your oil every 3-4k miles and you'll be fine.
The sounds is not that bad, but it will never beat the sound of the old si. The v-Tec gave to the si a unique sound and it was way more aggressive. I think they should keep the 2.4 L V-Tec
I had a 2020 Si Coupe for about 2 and a half years. While I did love it, I could not stand the rev hang. That's the biggest reason I got rid of it. It drove me nuts. The car was jerky as hell when upshifting because of it. If it wasn't for the rev hang, I'd probably still have the car. That's the only thing I hated about it but unfortunately for me, that's a deal breaker. I will say I agree with you on the seats though. The seats look awesome in the car. I absolutely loved the seats when I had mine. I wish Honda would fix the rev hang in these cars because that's the only thing that would stop me from buying another one. I have a 2023 WRX now with no rev hang and that car drives a lot better and is a lot smoother than the Si was. The rev hang also wears out the clutch.
Does talk a lot but you can tell he is putting in a lot of effort in his videos. Great review, happy you enjoyed the SI. I thought you were going to hate it haha
They should really make a Type R in this coupe body too. That is something that has to happen soon if Honda are listening..? Then we can all legally have the 2 door Type R we all wanted if we are being honest. Peace. R.
BUT......u have to upgrade the clutch because the extra torque and hp of a tune WILL cause the clutch to slip and eventually go out......HONDA clutches are soft.
Front isn't bad cuz the driving lights break up the HUGE fake vents but the rear fake vents are MASSIVE on the sedan, much smaller on the SI Coupe, that's why I got the coupe.
Great blog about the SI for 2019 they come standard with LED headlights and the 1.5 SI platform is very tuner friendly plr hondata K Pro 27 won you can make that car a rocket ship for under five grand I love those wagons but you get that kind of horsepower and those kind of times you have to spend double the money the best bang for your buck and have a major community that support you the Honda hands down is the winner
I intend to purchase a 2019 Si coupe at the end of this year, probably between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'll shave about four grand off MSRP and see which dealer says yes. The car will be on clearance and I'll get a deal.
This car isn't really about torque and power. It's more about suspension and driving style. Honda could have made it cheaper by not offering a bunch of gadgets that many people don't want in a sport car. People want to drive this hard. Or for the same price, they should have put the 2.0 in with no gadgets. If you want both, get 2018 GTI Sport.
Couldn't the civic si be tuned to make like 250hp? That kind of power would be fantastic and might even feel more balanced then a type R.....or maybe I'm just tripping
Ktuner or Hondata tunes change these cars dramatically. Custom tunes even better. These motors can make a lot of power with just bolt ons. I have a 2020 and love it.
@@Idahoridge LOL I forget even making this comment three years ago, funny thing is I ended up buying a 2019 Civic Type R about a year and a half ago now which is close enough to this. I had a 2016 infiniti Q50 red sport when i made this comment. I understand where you're coming from as well, I was just talking about keeping it stock I believe
I can vouch 48+mpg highway as long as you're easy and not going up hill. Even the slightest incline will drop your mpg by a lot! My work commute I get 37 there but I've gotten up to 50mpg on the way back (mostly down grade).
andre perez new si's advertised at 205 hp to the crank... has 201 hp to the wheels... Honda underrated big time... and yes lot more torque in the new si
I wouldn't compare the SI to a GTI. Maybe a GLI, it not a hatchback. Sedan or Coupe only. The R is the GTI (hatchback) competitor. The typeR is also closer to the same price range.
video was an ok watch, just one comment, you cant say anything about the civic only having 205 hp and say youre a gti fan when the gti had 200 horse power for close to 10 years.
ZomBipandaa twin turbo is irrelevant on this car, a bigger upgraded single turbo is the route to go and prl made 350hp with the type r turbo on the si with some e85
if you go to race someone at a red light does it really matter if it's a regular civic or an SI? Either way, you are going to get absolutely smoked by the majority of cars on the road.
Sarah L many normal cars, good luck against mine or any of my friends. Even my buddies 589 hp civic gets beat. Til we hit curves then he destroys us 😬 but never a straight line.
Sarah L yes many commuter cars but where I live there's just a bunch of sports cars. Hondas around here even molded aren't beating shit, and I owned a mugen si. I knew who not to race.
FUCKKKKKKK THE VOLUME BUTTON, I have a civic ext, and I hate hate hate that. Everything else is Probably the highest in its class the civic has ever put out.
Comparing it to a VW? Why are you comparing apples to oranges lol. That's not the target demographic for that vehicle. The Civic Type R was the demographic pointed towards the VW. In that which case it destroys it on the track.
The 2017 Hyundai Elantra Sport mt goes 0 to 60 in 6.5 sec and the dual clutch automatic goes 0 to 60 in 6.1 sec. The Hyundai Elantra Sport is also cheaper. I test drove the mt and it was fast.
by the way.....you claimed to be a GTI "fan" and yet did not mentioned and comparisons to the SI.....but i noticed how much you were salivating over the pathetic "performance" of the SI.......i wonder why????
many people pay to remove the badges. fan boys get more badges and people who have the best design taste remove them. so glad they didn't put badges on the sides that would have looked horrible. The car is mean't for the casual driver or the person who cant afford something expense to slowly wants to upgrade. The volume control on the touch screen sucks.
+adidas1984x that's a good question about the hatch. I'm not sure if it does. I would drive both. I know a lot of people that really like the exl turbo and don't want to upgrade
Honda dropped ths ball. They put a turbocharged VTEC engine in the first generation Acura RDX. Why couldnt they refine that engine and place it in this model like they did fir the 9th gen Si when they took the K24 otut of the Acura TSX?This is a watered down Si, to me.
No its not. I had a fg2 and I would still pick that car to this day over the new one. It has a 1.5 wtf the em1 had a 1.6 and no vtec. Honda what are you doing. Oh I know to get a 2.0 you have to get the Type R or the new accord that is coming out. Fuck new Honda I am going to get another s2k. I should have never sold my ap2. Honda is dead. Not a real Si.
the mere fact that he used V-Tech instead of VTEC tells you how much you should listen to his review.
I agree
Been driving this for a couple months and I think it’s a very under appreciated car. It’s no track demon it’s a FUN daily driver with room to tune. I get great fuel economy, a drivers seat I ENJOY being in, easy clutch and transmission that doesn’t make you want to die in traffic. A lsd from factory, a more rigid body, great suspension set up, you can’t beat the value. It’s very light for its size which yes does mean you give up the luxurious touch of heavy interiors but it isn’t trying to be a Mercedes. It’s surprisingly quick stock with $2k you can really blow yourself (and others ;) away
I'll wave as I pass you by at your VW dealer waiting for your GTI repair.
Gabe Pettinicchio I guess you didn't watch the whole review because I talked about how much I liked the Si so cheers 🍻
Yea have fun at ur local stealership getting your car fixed every other month, no thanks but I’ll take Japanese over German . Unless I’m filthy rich then I’ll buy AMG GT
Did he just say “... a four-door coupe”? LMFAOOOO 🤣
This dude rambles on and on and on. Whenever you think he's actually gonna start driving the car, he just starts talking about himself again. Couldn't finish the video he was so annoying.

VQ3713 I understand that and that wasn't the problem. Problem was, the indication that he was about to drive it not once not twice but like 4 times.
driving starts at 8 min in a 11 min vid. mentions driving it at 2:40. props to this guy
"4 door coupe"
Twin Turbocharged Gaming 🤦🏻♂️
kinda like Mercedz cla250 ? the dimension of the civic sedan and coupe is quit alike
@@boolji A coupe, by definition is a 2 door vehicle not 4.

I absolutely agree bro. I own the 18 sedan and love the car. I’ve spent dozens of hours looking at aftermarket parks but will probably keep it stock

@@dominicancheif117 i have an '18 si coupe and i havent noticed any major issues with oil dilution. Just remember to change your oil every 3-4k miles and you'll be fine.

Im getting my first car next month which is gonna be a 2018 honda civic si with factory upgrades ima be paying almost $34,000 for it
Did u learn yo shift on a tractor?
Does talk a lot but you can tell he is putting in a lot of effort in his videos. Great review, happy you enjoyed the SI. I thought you were going to hate it haha
Not sure why reviewers keep saying it has Xenon or LED headlights. They're definitely halogen projectors.
shift to 2nd , and burnt 3 years of clutch life
Thanks for the review. Nice job.
arnoldsimage you're welcome! Thank you!
It's a Turbo so remaps will be available.
Yep, thanks for the comment!
Just stating the obvious bro.
They should really make a Type R in this coupe body too. That is something that has to happen soon if Honda are listening..?
Then we can all legally have the 2 door Type R we all wanted if we are being honest.
Peace. R.
You can get more HP with upgrades which is what every civic SI goes through Get hondata for like 30 more hp with +6 I think
+Jacob Ash oh wow! That's a really good point and something I wanted to mention but forgot lol these cars are meant to be upgraded
True
BUT......u have to upgrade the clutch because the extra torque and hp of a tune WILL cause the clutch to slip and eventually go out......HONDA clutches are soft.

My friend owns a 2014 Civic no issues. It's been awhile since I've owned a Honda (98 Prelude). I do see more Hyundai cars on the road.

Not good review if you alreaddy start biased
Just got a white 2018 Si coupe 😁😁
Do you still like it? Any issues?
Hated white love my green
@Not Ikea Type R white's always a clean choice
Nice!! I’m getting my soon can’t wait!!!
Congrats dude! Woohoo mine is modern steel. I like white a lot
Takes a turn at 25mph and says there's understeer. Come on man.
I got the same car but in red. I honestly love the new si. Coming from a E.G. & D.c. the new si is a awseome machine
+Jonski Gonski it's a nice car and I'm in love with the gear box 😍

Simply perfection

Pretty big fan of my 9th gen, it’s got all the modern day comforts but it still feels raw enough to really have fun in
Never been a big fan of Civic, but I do like the exposed look in front, with the intercooler..
+James Hurt yeah me too, I like it better in the 2 door
Couldn't the civic si be tuned to make like 250hp? That kind of power would be fantastic and might even feel more balanced then a type R.....or maybe I'm just tripping
Considering the hp today, I think you are right!
They got these new si's doing 4.3 0-60 nowadays with just a tune, down pipe, and fx400 clutch. These things can keep up with srts easy.
The car dynos, around 215 220 at the wheels , along with the trq, the car does not make 205 hp, stock , FYI
99 best SI of all time
Yes! Good times man good times... too bad even in today's day that car is a thief magnet
Skidz1818 I had a 99 SI, and now a 16 EXT and you're on fucking Crack..... The 99 was like 130 HP, get real dude.
100% yes, it is worth buying the Civic Si, bro! Or get the Acura. They are nice too.
fakegibsonssuck 160HP*
fakegibsonssuck if you care only about HP you’re on crack you ricer. The 99-2000 si is the best one of all.
Hell yea it's worth buying
it is a nice car, and Honda quality!
Yep haha
They look nice but too little power for me to be interested in getting one.
Josh Urbach yeah I here you. The shifter though is very impressive
Josh Urbach bro u can upgrade them tho
Ktuner or Hondata tunes change these cars dramatically. Custom tunes even better. These motors can make a lot of power with just bolt ons. I have a 2020 and love it.

People complaing of clutch slipping from just installing the ktuner. Out the gates good little fun car.
38 mpg highway tho
+Ton M for real!
I have gotten as high as 48 mpg highway cruising in sixth gear at 80 mph.
Clemson Patriot video or it didn't happen ! that's amazing if it is so !
Ton M with premium gas though!
I can vouch 48+mpg highway as long as you're easy and not going up hill. Even the slightest incline will drop your mpg by a lot! My work commute I get 37 there but I've gotten up to 50mpg on the way back (mostly down grade).
still love my rsx type s
Mine was stolen, so I bought this in a 2019 2 door. Fast, but not quite the same feel. The RSX flew like a two stoke bike .
Si seats look much better then the red ones in the type r
Appreciate your feedback!!!
Lol no they don't.
Why do people say "only 205hp" 9th gen si's make 174WHP... these 10th gen si's make 201WHP HOW IS THAT SAME?!?!?!. Do your research people.
I agree 100%. 201 whp stock is respectable for under 25k. Even non si's are putting out 190whp.
Joshua Everage 9th made 205 to the crank as well do your research lol
Torque is the difference
andre perez lol yes 205 to the crank and 174 to the wheels... what's your point???
andre perez new si's advertised at 205 hp to the crank... has 201 hp to the wheels... Honda underrated big time... and yes lot more torque in the new si
You had me dead when you said "but my book is small"
The high revving engine in the previous generation made it a joy to drive, not a burden, as it appears you believe to be the case.
Do u review custom cars? Cause I'm in spring hill fl and would love for u to review my custom 2014 si
Spawn SI heck yeah I would!! Send me an email and we can swap numbers. Torquejunkies1@gmail.com
The steering wheel doesn’t have the si logo anymore
Why don't you buy a used v6 Accord coupe with a stick you get like 260hp for $15k
because it's not new.
because it's not riced out.
Purple Heart they still make the well until 2016
Is the Civic SI worth buying??
Is Kate Upton worth banging??
How's the cabin noise while on the road?
These cars Dyno bone stock 201 HP 212 torques AT THE WHEEL... thats 235hp 245 torques at the crank
Its underrated by HONDA
The SI dynos at about 205 at the rear wheel which means its about 220-225 at the crank!!!
Motorcityman Man it’s fwd
C PG 🤣🤣😩😩😩
Front wheel drive.
@cpg1388
Still some loss to the wheels
The new civic looks like a wrx hatchback right?
pedro’s life hmm I see it in the bulky body
I wouldn't compare the SI to a GTI. Maybe a GLI, it not a hatchback. Sedan or Coupe only. The R is the GTI (hatchback) competitor. The typeR is also closer to the same price range.
Rondal Childers
I would say the Golf R is the competitor for the Type R
Hell gonna get one all white in three months
All white looks nice with the black accents!
video was an ok watch, just one comment, you cant say anything about the civic only having 205 hp and say youre a gti fan when the gti had 200 horse power for close to 10 years.
+geoXedge I here what you are saying even with the GTI they are a little behind the curb in power compared to Ford and Subaru
coupe looks really cool
Were you driving it in sport mode?
Si for the Win
Please put time stamps for exterior, interior, driving portion thank you
This dude doesn't race 3:05 lol
6:17 a four door coupe really dude smh
Salvador Vasquez lmao!
205 is actually fast plus you can add twin turbo and more power so the max would be about 300
ZomBipandaa twin turbo is irrelevant on this car, a bigger upgraded single turbo is the route to go and prl made 350hp with the type r turbo on the si with some e85
That si doesn’t have any factory upgrades, it looks lame AF just like that, but if u get the package it’ll look better and more sporty
That poor trans. You need to practice running a standard shift.
Much better looking than the previous models? What kind of drugs is this guy on?
For us that came for the driving portion go to 8:00
I THINK I SEE A 2 DOOR 2 SEATER FWD HONDA TURBO IN THE FUTURE.
This guy is pro GTI let us talk about the gti reliabilty
what's that dripping under the car around the beginning. Hopefully, none of the fluids
The moment he said he was going to be judging it harshly (instead of being unbiased) I stopped watching
Funny the type r doesnt have heated seats or sun roof
David Munoz type r with heated seats and sun roof? lmfao, because it's for performance and track
李政杰 heated seats and a sunroof dont really take away from any of that as far as weight or draw.
David Munoz that's why type r doesn't have em
if you go to race someone at a red light does it really matter if it's a regular civic or an SI? Either way, you are going to get absolutely smoked by the majority of cars on the road.
Thanks for the input
have you ever driven a civic? compare that to an old focus, a corolla, etc. civic is faster than many many cars on the
road.
Sarah L many normal cars, good luck against mine or any of my friends. Even my buddies 589 hp civic gets beat. Til we hit curves then he destroys us 😬 but never a straight line.
Sarah L yes many commuter cars but where I live there's just a bunch of sports cars. Hondas around here even molded aren't beating shit, and I owned a mugen si. I knew who not to race.
Sarah L it feels fast because it's lightweight and fun to drive. Have you ever driven an actually fast car?
Oil dilution kicked in yo!!!
In Canada, the Si comes std with premium LED headlights. Why does Honda shit on the US?
FUCKKKKKKK THE VOLUME BUTTON, I have a civic ext, and I hate hate hate that. Everything else is Probably the highest in its class the civic has ever put out.
Chris Spooner definitely the best quality Civic
The 2018 Honda Civic si, "which is nice"
Comparing it to a VW? Why are you comparing apples to oranges lol. That's not the target demographic for that vehicle.
The Civic Type R was the demographic pointed towards the VW. In that which case it destroys it on the track.
+Jonathan Luthren you mean the Golf R. The GTI is comparable.
Torque Junkies I didn't name a VW. But yes. I am in agreement with you and yes that is basically what I meant.
Jonathan Luthren I agree. Golf R is in another class. The type R in its own class lol
Vw.... lololol
The 2017 Hyundai Elantra Sport mt goes 0 to 60 in 6.5 sec and the dual clutch automatic goes 0 to 60 in 6.1 sec.
The Hyundai Elantra Sport is also cheaper.
I test drove the mt and it was fast.
Thanks for the input!
no lsd poor track traction
jay czyzyk tracking a sporty economy car lol
Badges? We don't need no stinking badges... people will know. :-)
by the way.....you claimed to be a GTI "fan" and yet did not mentioned and comparisons to the SI.....but i noticed how much you were salivating over the pathetic "performance" of the SI.......i wonder why????
many people pay to remove the badges. fan boys get more badges and people who have the best design taste remove them. so glad they didn't put badges on the sides that would have looked horrible. The car is mean't for the casual driver or the person who cant afford something expense to slowly wants to upgrade. The volume control on the touch screen sucks.
Good thing i still have my 1993 civic still runs like a clock
My opinion: its a honda meaning ENTRY level performance...not mercedes v12 bi turbo level.
The fuck is this guy talking about. A civic si is meant to LIVE in the higher RPMs. That what makes the tech so fun!!
No. I rather have a K20 TURBO V TEC ENGINE
Thanks for the input
6:18 4 door coupe? its a hatchback.....
It's a sedan
Do they make the si in a hatch? I'm torn between the si sedan or the exl turbo
+adidas1984x that's a good question about the hatch. I'm not sure if it does. I would drive both. I know a lot of people that really like the exl turbo and don't want to upgrade
adidas1984x
Nop, no si hatch :(
stevevang03 dang :(
They do make a two door coupe but no hatch
He is just trying to sell the car so just skip to 8:00. Could not finish the video, so boring!!
RIP XXXtentacion
Takes corner at slow speed "Hmmm yeah it has a little bit of understeer" wtf... lol.
Pretty fast for that price
It’s a Honda at the end of the day. It’s not a super car.
Honda dropped ths ball. They put a turbocharged VTEC engine in the first generation Acura RDX. Why couldnt they refine that engine and place it in this model like they did fir the 9th gen Si when they took the K24 otut of the Acura TSX?This is a watered down Si, to me.
I think OK your subaru and ford rs reviews you are going to start saying with its competitors now and relating it to the honda.
I am getting one so
They new civics don't make much hp from factory but they have lots of torque..I'll just stick with my b20 thanks anyways Honda haha
Thanks for the comment!
Rather buy type R
No its not. I had a fg2 and I would still pick that car to this day over the new one. It has a 1.5 wtf the em1 had a 1.6 and no vtec. Honda what are you doing. Oh I know to get a 2.0 you have to get the Type R or the new accord that is coming out. Fuck new Honda I am going to get another s2k. I should have never sold my ap2. Honda is dead. Not a real Si.
I can see your point, thanks for commenting!
Wahooo!!!!
Janell DiMattina thank you Honey!!
You should have written down what you wanted to say before doing this, you're all over the place.
