The new Honda Civic lineup is winning accolades from the press, but the addition of an Si model in four-door form is sure to win over enthusiasts who've outgrown the usual two- and three-door sporty Civics. A concept on the Chicago stage but promised for production in the fall, the Civic Si Sedan will share the current Si Coupe's 197-hp four and six-speed manual transmission, along with its limited-slip differential. New 18-inch wheels jazz up the sedan, and four-piston Brembo brakes increase stopping capability. Honda says 2007 will be the first time that two Si models will be available at the same time in the Honda lineup.
