When I bought my 08 in mid-March I asked the salesman if they planned on refreshing or redesigning this thing anytime soon and he said, "not for at least 3 years". Why do they lie when they don't know the answer? I would have waited for the few minimal changes but especially for the bluetooth and leather.

 

Well, other than the leather seats and improved steering wheel with BlueTooth buttons...everything looks much the same!

Thanks for the pics!

Does anyone know if the 09 BlueTooth stuff will be cross compatible with the 08 model? Like as in upgrade?

new exterior color?

 

Indeed, 06hch2! That looks like the Atomic Blue, to me. Nice with the gray leather.

 

It is Ivory interior (beige) the Civic Hybrid still only comes in Ivory and Blue for 2009 in the US.

 

I've been looking everywhere for a full interior pic of the '09 Civic w/blue leather. All OEM pics released so far are with beige leather. Honda's site has one pic of the top of a blue leather seat and headrest, but this doesn't really show the overall interior effect with blue, or color of dashboard, trim, etc. Beige is very nice, but would have to get black mats, which shouldn't look bad. Wondering if blue has an all-blue dash, too.

 

I'm going to assume its the same dash as the '08 but what would the leather wrapping of the steering wheel look like? The part of the seat they show on the blue one is great looking.

 

I don't see the blue leather anywhere on the Honda.com site. What am I overlooking?
