Default NEW Concept vehicles

The title says (Mod edit, not any more)... check these out the Concept for the new SI. It looks like we're going to go in for a little competition here. I hate to say this, but I kind of like it.







What do you think? I know it's squarish and edgy... but I wouldn't take that over our curves. We're never going to have curves again. The new Civic 'aint lookin' all that bad though. Here we go.

Those yellow fog lights look horrid. Other than that, lower it and get some new sideskirts and it wouldn't look too bad.

it's only a tease (does not even have a real interior or a suspension) but I think it is a BIG leap forward from the Ugly civic they are producing now.

The new SI's are good looking, they look like mini minivans!(i like them anyways)

Civics stopped looking good after 2000(besides the new si's)

But this looks ok, its just a concept though, right? I dont see them putting this out

Looks like a Scion TC ripoff.

yeah man, i hate the new GTO. what the heck is that? my only guess would be the guy who held the rights dies and some ahole took it, smeared his butt with it, and ruined an the entire history of muscle cars.

mk3, i know... i can't believe they just decided to make mini van civics. what a laugh!

the scion's aren't too bad. i like them. definitely wouldn't turn my tiburon over, GK or not.

the newest civics are going to look just like that but it's not going to be hooked up like in the photos. that hood isn't even carbon fiber and the point of having a black one is because it's carbon fiber... so i don't really know what they were thinking when this image came out.

reminds me of a compact TSX. they're aiiight but too plain. i've been in one and was impressed but i'm so used to hyundai that i could never bring myself to have a TSX. you could take an eye out with the sharp heavy doors. the hyundais are so much more practical design wise. cheaper, but lighter and very practical. proves you don't really need all those extra materials.

I absolutely agree...except I think the new SI looks like a Focus. The concept is alright but I wouldn't buy it.

...and thats my $0.02

Whats with the trend of cars getting all squarish... is it supposed to be "in" or something? Take the Celica for example. 94-99 (I think those years) they looked remarkably like our cars, i was looking at them before the Tibby. Yet now they look like a flipped over triangle. ;
