Les premiers "essais" sortent gentiment avec les remarques qu'on pouvait attendre. Honda semble toujours produire les meilleures boîtes manuelles et l'agrément sportif de l'ensemble moteur / boite / position de conduite est toujours au top. Etonnament (ou bien heureusement), il semble que le turbo se la joue un peu "old school" en prenant assez haut. Le bruit, comme on pouvait l'attendre, ne sera plus jamais aussi exhaltant que celui de ses encêtres.

" it's not until past 3,000rpm that it really hits its stride. It's better at picking up quickly at high revs, and once away and blowing hard the Civic is massively fast. Massively."
"...every gearchange in the new six speed manual a total delight. So precise, so tight, so slick. If everybody had a manual gearbox like this there'd be no call for double clutch gearboxes."
"We averaged 27.8mpg over the course of 450 mixed miles"
"Fabulous. Really tall side bolsters, good side support. Best road car seats I've sat in for a while, actually. Same goes for all the touch points - lovely aluminium gearlever, shapely leather steering wheel, well judged pedal weights."
"Two things strike you immediately - how low the centre of gravity seems, and how stiff the shell is. We took our long term VW Golf R along as a comparison, and, for the first time, detected within it a tiny bit of structural shimmy on difficult Welsh roads, which I don't think I'd have noticed if the Civic hadn't been so tight."
"Traction though... well, I swear the Civic is as quick out of corners as the 4WD Golf R. It's immense. Which leads me on to +R"
"Honda says 0-62mph takes 5.7 seconds. We did 0-60mph in 5.3 seconds and 100mph in 11.2 seconds. "
