what do you guys think about the new civic 1.7L VI?

the only think I noticed is that the gearnob is at a weird position.. anyone has any problem with that?

i've driven my friends one and u actually get used to it after a while mate. Its actually quite comfy when ur trying to drive fast, but in traffic its a hassle as u cant really rest ur hand on the knob.

handling is GHEY, ur body rolling everywhere...

power is on par with the old EG VTIs with a bit more torque. The best thing about the Vi is that it responds exceptionally well to I/h/e mods in comparison to other civics as it was heavily detuned to be a Low emission and fuel economic car from factory. My friend dynoed 89kw at wheels from doing i/h/e without tuning...which aint bad considering that it came from factory with 98kw at fly : ) but u would note that he bought GOOD parts not ebay
