Sneaky spy picutres of the new 2006 Civic
See the early picutres of the new 2006 Civic.
Somehow reminds me of Prius: http://www.channel4.com/4car/gallery...nda-civic.html |
xcel and I will be at the Chicago Auto Show this week. Hopefully we will find out more about this revamped version of the HCH.

Wow, what a great idea to incorporate the egg-shape design and a split window rear hatch back. Why didn't anyone else think of that before now....
Oh, wait, Toyota did! In all seriousness that was my first though, it just looks like a cross b/w a civic and a Prius. |
I though so , too. I hope they bring the 5-door version to the U.S. I think it would help it compete better with the Prius. The hatchback option really expands the versatility of the car.

I have some catching up to do. Need to post this as news, too. Is that actually the color scheme?
|
Jason,
Nope, thats part of the stuff that they use to hide the true shape of the car. I dont believe the headlights or taillights will be the same either. I do find the overall shape very curious though. Looks more mazda than honda. |
If that's the new body style, I'm jumping for joy. I hate the feeling of envy I get when a new version of my current car comes out. No worries about that here.

As the owner of a 97 Civic HX myself, I can't wait to see what motors are available in the 2006 Civic. I'm not sure I'm ready to take the plunge yet, especially since I doubt they'll offer a 2-door hybrid, so I'm hoping for greatly improved motors for the rest of the lineup. I only paid about $14,000 for my Civic HX back in 97 and have been extremely pleased with it over the years. I'd love to see them offer another HX-type model but with hopefully even better gas mileage; maybe 40/47 or so EPA ratings? If they could do that and maybe pick up a couple horsepower to 120-125hp or so, I would buy a new one in a heartbeat.
