madeguy · 04-11-2006, 01:27 PM

looks pretty neat!!! I also like the color, SI convertable will be ONE HOT CIVIC

**twistedframe** · 04-11-2006, 01:39 PM

its a neat concept, but i don't think it was executed well. I won't be on that waiting list.

The actual design or the crappy photochop? The front wheel is blurry and the paint job is too obviously chopped that it's painful. All in all I like the design though. I just wonder if THAT version will hit the US streets or if it'll be a Euro deal.

Ick... I dont know how well it would work. Not that Civics have been drop topped before

**twistedframe** · 04-11-2006, 01:49 PM

it funny i almost said that about the chop. it looks like they just cut the top off, and that just doesn't look good to me. i think they should change the lines up a bit to make it look a little different than a regular civic.

surfs up!

Not my cup of tea and I don't think it would sell well in the US. Is Honda ready for another del Sol flop?

Did anyone else think that the Nissan Urge concept was heavily borrowed from the Pontiac Stinger concept of '89?

haha its funny, one day i was actually thinking of a civic convertible and would b cool to have one. do u think they'll ever make one for the coupe and sedans, i think it would b pretty interesting.

corean13oi · 04-12-2006, 12:32 AM

wow the civic looks hidious...

***Celcius*** · 04-12-2006, 01:58 PM

Boo. I'd be pissed because I already bought an Si. If they brought back the Civic Del Sol, I'd be SOOOOOO pissed - mainly because I'm going to have to absorb the depreciation of my Si when I sell it to get one. My dad had a Del Sol, and the only major downside to it was the body flexing. Otherwise, it was friggen fun to drive. I only hope that they make it look like our coupe, and not like that ugly Euro crap.

joonoo · 04-12-2006, 02:33 PM

I don't like convertibles at all, except those hardtop ones. I'll defenately pass on a convertible civic.

***k20z3Vo*** · 04-13-2006, 01:24 PM

I second the PT Cruiser lookalike! No for the vertible Civic. But I do like vertible Supras...

RJJensen · 07-10-2007, 08:44 PM
