sorry. i was going by looks and originality

but the new one has THE SAME engine, the new ST has 25bhp more, as does the megane, the Astra VXR has 40bhp more.
and the new Civic weighs more than the last one, so will be slower.

I heard new one is lighter, also heard that it has 1bhp more and completely reworked software with regard to Valve-Timing etc. Sure we will see though
