You mean the designers have questioned a load of chavs at your local cruise and the chavs have told them that they want a Civic with a Delta Bodykit.

Im sure it sells? so your telling me if you had the final say you would make it look subtle and with speedlines? to make a "few" people happy 
or would you make it look like what people want and make allot of profit off it?
Im 100% positive in saying i think Honda know what there doing. 
End of the day most of you hate it cus its a type r vtec , if it was a corsa or astra you would all have your cocks out and be begging to shlap it up against the bonnet.

But the Astra looks good, hell even the Focus ST looks good, the Megane 225 Sport looks good, the Golf GTi looks fairly good, bit bland, but this is fcuking hideous

I saw a brand new Golf GTi parked up in the Oracle a week ago or so and the interior It looks like the old Nova SR interior, now I know they are trying to make it like the old Mk1 but for the love of god its a 20k car with a pathetic looking cloth interior.
Robbo, I hope you have ordered full leather.

I think it'll sell because honda are geniuses! and will make this one bloody quick, super handling car 
Just a shame it looks so awful.

To be fair - totally contridicting myself in this post now.

(Plus I've seen a pic of one in black and it was  )

How is that car chav
Word is so widely used now its pathetic.
It has 'aggressive' styling, not 'chav' styling.
Im guessing all kitted Skylines/Supras/Evos are all chav also?
Honda know what they are doing, this is going to sell like hotcakes, if i was buying a brand new car, i would seriously consider one. In black it must look amazing

It's not to my taste but that's nothing to do with it being a honda or 'chav' whatever that means in this context?
I think the styling is awful, genuinely awful.

And? White looks better, but it still looks shocking with those matching front and rear bumper, fluted skirts and mid level rear spoiler.

Yep these r my issues. Front and rear especially the curve in then out towards the bottom looks like a delta kit which people with no clue put on their escorts.

Black might look semi good as it'll maybe hide the lines of the bodykit

im gona get slated for this but
its rival the astra vxr IMO and my opinion only.
that is horrid with his cheapo chrome bits every where, bug eyed headlights and awful big front v grill, halfrauds m3 style mirrors. civic makes the astra look dated already, just like the ep did with the mk4 when it came out.
i know ill get slated for that so take it easy on me.
