That looks a lot like the Acura RSX.

I wouldn't drive any Cobalt if you paid me. Just my opinion.

Just my opinion.A man after my own heart... the Cobalt is a warmed over Cavalier, and every experience with a Cavi has been awful. Back on Topic, unless Honda returns the Civic to the old style suspension (non-MacStrut), they are just jellybeans and they will continue to lose market share.That spyshot shows a decent enough car, but until Honda's ride like Honda's again, I'm not real interested.

The interior is cheap, the car itself seems thrown together and I have already seen them everywhere, I like to stand out, not blend in.

The first pic shown is a pic of the '06 US Si. The remaining pics of the 5 door hatch is a Europe only product. This new Civic is based on the a new platform which will debut this fall, while the RSX still rides on the current generation civic's platform which was introduced 4 years ago. Base Civics will be powered by a 1.8L 4, making 140hp, while upgraded civics will have 155hp. The SI (as shown in the first pic) will receive 200hp and an LSD to boot!I, for one, miss the old 4 wheel double wishbone suspension, but the new SI is supposedly pretty damn impressive...
