Its here

Take a wild guess

>same engine as Civic hatchback with an ECU tune
>better midrange but no top end
>doesn't look good

Just seems like Honda put all their effort into the Type R and nothing into this. I feel like Ford put a lot more effort into their cheap turbo compacts to seperate them from the slow models. Still better than getting a Sentra Nismo I guess.

It's the antithesis of all the previous generations of SI's.

At least the Sentra nismo isn't hideous

>leather not even optional

>LED/HID lows/highs not even optional

Why?

fart in the seat. must be done

>just an ECU tune
Guess the better suspension and LSD don't count for shit

But Veeky Forums wouldn't know anything about handling

>defending the Sentra Nismo

Let's be clear

>188hp
>177lb-ft
>3000lbs
>rear torsion
>open diff
>laggy and sluggish power delivery
>all the other garbage that comes with modern Nissan
>27k

You'd have to be fucking mental to waste money on this when even a Elantra Sport or Mazda3 2.5 is faster, better built, and more enjoyable

>Fwd
>Handling
>40k after markups and taxes

Leave the fwd for the $20,000 cars user

I hope you mean the type r
That si sold for 24k

Any shots of under the hood? Also, what does the front axle look like?

My cooworker bought it at dealership we work at.
Lemme see if i can get keys again..

How is this any better than the last one?

Type R is 33K

>no handbrake
dropped

Tarbo m8

that's how it's worse than the last one

fucking retard

Si was literally supposed to be a ~2.0 NA that could be tuned or turbo'd to unsafe amounts of fun.

Now it's some generic 1.5 tiny tarboshit that barely makes more power than my 15 year old Si while being pigfat and whisper quiet and costing four times as much.

Hard to do with na

what's the difference between an SI and a Type-R?

About 500 ccs

It's fucking nothing, of course modifying your car with aftermarket parts and tuning it to run higher octane while trying to eliminate lag improves things a little bit, but you can't just flash a tune on an otherwise stock car and expect results.

>doesn't rev to 9k or over

kill yourself you degenerate

It depends on what you want out of a daily driver.
Lots of people like the $/hp of upgrading already turbod cars

But I think they should have offered a 1.5t and 2.0 (or whatever) na option in the si like they did with the normal civics

why

Beats me. You can lease a 2017 ss for 400. Why would you get a 4cylinder for that price?

so I'll assume you are talking about ~$400 per month for 48 months with a few thousand down and chevy's "ultra low mileage" terms
you are paying around 20k over the term of the lease
do you really think a ~35k car is going to depreciate that hard in four years where you wouldn't be able to turn around and sell it?

i didn't know honda made spaceships from lego

>leasing
Are you on welfare?

Why the fuck are car designers going back to that retarded edgy styling
like sure before automation was perfected it was much easier and cheaper to just build a boxy car but why make that look so boxy

Jesus those fake vents are horrible

jordan cox is fucking insane

I don't think people with low income lease. It requires you to have great credit.

You think dealerships give a shit? They still own the car

Isn't the Civic 2900lbs? Lighter than the previous gen right?

Doesn't the focus st weigh like 3200lbs???

Good goy

He's a modern day Takumi.

Like 2800lbs for the 1.5l turbo

This

That's what I thought. I bets it's probably the lightest car in it's class. I could be wrong though

Fools and their money are easily separated.

The only time leasing is ever acceptable is when you want to buy a really unreliable car.
My aunt just leased a Jaguar F-Pace. She loves the look of it and the interior and that's why she got it, which is fair enough. But I sure as hell wouldn't buy that car with Jaguar's known reliability. So she wont ever need to worry about crazy repair bills.
She's also very well off.

piece of shit. can't compete with STI/EVO/RS. back to the drawing-board, hondafags

It probably won't overheat like the RS

The Evo isn't even in production anymore

And the STi has a 54 year old motor

>can't compete with STI/EVO/RS
It's not supposed to though.

You mean it's not supposed to compete against other economy cars on steroids at the same price range?

You're confusing the Si with the type R

Sentra turbo starts at 22k and nismo is 25k
Drove nissan and mazda and they're both fun dailies. Same 0-60 but you can tune the sr if you really wanted

The only good sentra nissan ever made

Fuck and i didnt get my garbage out to the curb!!!

>"handling"
>comment about Civic SI

Please KYS.

MSRP, sure. But expect it to sell out of the stealership for closer to 40k.

you can get the sentra nismo for cheap (well below MSRP) because people aren't buying them due to shit reviews.

My neck hurts
