Ehhh! Not so thrilled about this one... needs MAJOR work and lots of added design characteristics. Whatever... it's a concept. At least in it's current form, let's hope it is! Talk about "Plain Jane!"
I do like the little crx style concept. As long as it has some power it will probably sell to the teens/track/spirited drivers. Not really too much space for anything practical. Kinda like a miata.

that european civic is nothing new, but the type r version is going to be available in japan along side the jdm version for the first time.
the uk civic styling is what the civic should look like here. i hope the next one follows suit.
its interesting the dissention between the U.S. and japan camps with regards to the new civic.
the us wants to re do it from the ground up, and make it outstanding, top of the class...the japanese want to just improve things here and there.
while i personally want the civic to be the top of the class with regards to sportiness again, instead of the 'its nice on the inside and gets good mileage' stigma, i dunno who i would want to design the thing. (i dont mind the jdm designed civic)
all i know is that in the same way the si is falling behind, the civic will too if they dont ramp it up a bit.
and that concept is very close to reality...and it has to be small, its bascially the new crx

Personally, I don't care for the new Civic, but based on the Fit redesign, it's sort of what I was expecting.
What I REALLY want is that motorcycle pictured. It's cool and old school! I hate that we won't get that bike here. I'm tired of Honda, et al only offering full bodywork race style road bikes or Harley clones in the U.S. market. A standard bike like that, I'd buy in a minute.

that crz looks WAY more production than the original concepts. and i would rock one of those ev-n's if the battery made it far enough for me to get around. did you see the customizable interior on it?! leave it to honda.
and that bike is their new hybrid i think, how cool is that? i love honda... now i just need to move to japan so i can experience all of this greatness.
If I remember correctly the Euro civic has a Solid rear Axle and is based off of the same platform as the Fit. It shares relatively little with the US/JDM Civic (except for engine choices and interior dashboard components). As for the nose and the smilarity to the FIT... I think the Fit got some of it's looks from the Euro Civic since it's been around since MY'06.
The CR-Z... it'll be here in a few years and will be a fun little rocket. I believe it's the 1st production hybrid with a manual transmission. The nose is beginning to grow on me but the back is CR material. I wouldn't mind one of them as my commuter car but for now... the 4 doors and 4 seats are a must for the little one so the fit will definitely suffice.

NO WAY! If they give a CR 4 doors I will shoot someone... New Honda is ruining the name of Si by have a 4 door model also in so many more color choices... red, black, blue and white... thats is!

Wouldn't expect a CR to ever have 4 doors. (My reference was "for now... My fit will do... because I need 4 doors")
